    The thing that struck me the most about this series is how the system is set up to prey on vulnerable people like the Averys.

    They are fodder for the justice system, they feed the church and the military, plebs that don't know any better but are the most crucial part in holding up the deck of cards that what I want to say is American society but really society anywhere.

    Instead of really helping these people through education, social programs and other resources, help them get a leg up, they are left to falter, which not only suits the system just fine but in fact allows it to thrive.

    I guess you can argue that it's all about survival of the fittest and the cream will rise to the top and the rest will be left to stew in the cesspool, that these people have options available to them but don't make an effort to better themselves, but when you see a documentary like this and how the system is set up to keep them down, it gives you an overwhelming sense of hopelessness.
