Nevermind the worlds highest incarceration rate and the private prison lobbiests that help get as many laws on the books that lock people up to line their pockets.
Yep. Look at the incarceration rates in other first world countries. No comparison. This country is fricked up beyond belief when it comes to incarcerating people.

Big time. It is disgusting. Then you watch one of those CNBC documentaries about the billions that the private prison industry makes, the cheap labor they get, the lobbying they do for mandatory minimum prison sentences. The way they pay off politicians to vote for laws that extend prison sentences or have minimum sentences and so forth. All so they can make a buck.
