Statistic from SATOP

Look at these SATOP statistics:

* 30,250+ clients/year
* Sex -- 79.2% males and 18.2% females
* Avg. income -- $22,483
* Avg. education -- 11.6 years
* Avg. # DWI -- 1.6
* 36.2% report more than one DWI
* Avg. BAC -- 0.146

In plain English here is what they are saying:
About 25,000 workers making less than $22,000 a year because they never graduated high school get nearly two DWI charges against them per year in Missouri.

If the lives of those workers were not already difficult enough, now they have the added expense of attending meetings, insurance rates increase, some lose their jobs, and guess what?

With all that legal trouble coming down the pike, these folks drink even more to escape their hopeless condition. And eventually their desperate struggle leads them down a road to same punishment bank robbers, murderers and real criminals travel.
