@fodabonita -- Gotcha -- You're friends with psychopaths who Lord the system. The biggest, worst offender criminals wear robes and badges, rig the game with fraud elections, 'buy' the Corporate offices and board seats, command the armies, run Banks and write trillion-dollar checks the serf public ends up paying for, and paying for, and paying for ... Military-Corporate Demockery is the biggest scam ever, it rewards the heartless. Fuck You.

This journalist is right on the money and people of this country need to realize the drug laws are so ridiculously harsh. I have been a licensed health care provider for 14 yrs., own my home, typical middle class citizen until I was indicted on federal drug conspiracy charges. Although not convicted yet, which I have learned if involved in a federal case, conspiracy laws are written so broadly, they are nearly impossible to beat, I am facing 10 yrs in prison.

i would love a profit run prison, we can have fights to the death like the old days. being friends with judges and police officers, I really have nothing to worry about. I think marijuana should be legalized, but for now it's illegal. people break the law, it's simple, follow the rules and if you don;t like them, get a petition and get it on a ballad and cast a vote to change the rules. the prison system is a waste, the criminals are broken people, a bullet is cheaper than a jail cell..

It's an industry here. Prisons are being privatized and run for profit.

Another sign of the complete Reaganization of the US.
A cop can frame 40 people, have them sent to jail and, when found out the cop receives probation!? I don't think the people in authority in this country are even trying to hide their injustice anymore.
