61. Press Release: Crime Costs Nova Scotians $1.2 Billion A Year The report challenges the current practice of counting crime costs as a crime costs Nova Scotians an estimated $550 million a year in economic losses to http://www.gpiatlantic.org/releases/pr_crime.shtml

JUNE 2005 CONFERENCE About Us GPI News ... Reality Check GPI Atlantic 535 Indian Point Road Glen Haven, NS B3Z 2T5 Canada Phone: (902) 823-1944 Fax: (902) 820-2007 info@gpiatlantic.org Press Release: Crime Costs Nova Scotians $1.2 Billion a Year Stop Counting Crime Costs as Contribution to Prosperity, Study Recommends GPI Atlantic, a non-profit research group, today released the first comprehensive study of the economic costs of crime in Nova Scotia, and the first in Canada that examines changes in these costs over time. The report challenges the current practice of counting crime costs as a contribution to economic prosperity and well being, as is done in measures of progress based on the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The study is the third release of data for the Nova Scotia Genuine Progress Index (GPI), which will integrate 20 social, economic and environmental indicators into a comprehensive measure of sustainable development for the province. The work is seen as a step towards "full cost accounting" and has been designated by Statistics Canada as a pilot project for Canada. The first two components of the GPI, on the value of voluntary work and the value of unpaid household work and child care, were released late last year and measured social assets not counted in the GDP. Higher crime rates make the GDP grow because they produce more spending on prisons, police, court trials, burglar alarms and security guards, all of which make the economy grow and are counted as contributions to economic prosperity. By contrast, the GPI sees crime costs as a loss rather than a gain. Unlike the GDP, higher crime rates make the GPI go down. Lower crime costs are seen in the GPI as cost savings which can be invested in more productive activities that contribute to well being.

Main Menu Home Whats New About Probe Ministries Probe Alert Newsletter ... Probe Podcast Articles Current Issues Reasons to Believe Cults and World Religions Faith and Culture ... Rusty Wright Articles Probe Navigation Home Faith and Culture Society Crime in America Crime in America PDF E-mail Written by Kerby Anderson Case #1: Polly Klaas of Petaluma, California, was abducted from her suburban home during a sleepover with two friends on October 1, 1993, and subsequently murdered. Her alleged assailant, Richard Allen Davis, had been sentenced to sixteen years in prison for kidnapping, but was released in June after serving only eight years of that sentence. Case #2: Michael Jordan's father, James Jordan, was fatally shot in the chest on Interstate 95 in North Carolina on July 23, 1993. Charged with the murder were Larry Martin Demery and Daniel Andre Green. Demery had been charged in three previous cases involving theft, robbery, and forgery. He was awaiting trial for bashing a convenience-store clerk in the head with a cinder block during a robbery. Green had been paroled after serving two years of a six- year sentence for attempting to kill a man by smashing him in the head with an axe, leaving his victim in a coma for three months. Americans are scared, and they are angry. The scary orgy of violent crime has made average citizens afraid to walk the streets in front of their homes. And this fear has fueled a public cry to end the killing fields in America. Americans have had enough, and they want to know why known criminals were let back out on the streets so they could kill Polly Klaas and James Jordan.
