But that's just the $ value. Has the incidence of innocent people been growing with that number?
(But again: this is a bad argument. People rightfully get mad about all kinds of terrible things that happen to one or two people at a time. They do that because they (1) can visualize it happening to them, and (2) have a sense of civic righteousness. We shouldn't need a mass violation of civil liberties to get fired up about wrongs, should we?)
