using bail as a punitive measure is a bad policy/philosophy. It completely fricks the system.
What system?

The entire criminal justice system.
If you want to see some gross stuff, any time that a new policy/bill is attempted to be implemented to go at crime in a new way, pretty much anywhere in the US, you will have LEO organizations (typically sheriffs) fight it. Why? Because they will lose revenue and will have to decrease budgets and terminate employees.
Controlling local jails is a huge part of that. Bail is the tool used to ensure local jails stay full (and the money keeps rolling in). This isn't about fighting crime. This is about government bureaucracies protecting their budgets and power/influence.
