The 5th has really changed many peoples lifes. Many people wouldnt be able to do as much, if not for the Fifth Amendment. Before the Fifth Amendment, many punshments didn't fit the crime. If someone stole something they were hanged, today you spend a little while in jail for stealing then you are free to go asyou please.That's a drastic chnge. Also many people didnt have a right to plead the Fifth. When asked a quesion, you HAD to answer but now you have a right to remain silent after being asked a question. You can actually chose what you'd like to respond to. It shows that we have total control over ourselves.
