Illinois just took a huge step forward by eliminating cash bail. It hasn't had all the negative impacts that detractors predicted.

I would think a libertarian-orientated place like HN would be in full support. This model should be copied across the country so people aren't unconstitutionally jailed before being convicted. Unfortunately, the discussion has been focused on politics as a Democratic legislature and Governor passed the law.
