Story Here: [link to thefreethoughtproject.com]

The numbers don't lie. The truth is harsh, but the truth is the greatest liberation force in the world.

This story speaks volumes and should open up dialogue for people who still think that this is just how it is and Government cares about the people they rule by force.

Colleges are much like voluntary debt jails - so better to say there are just a lot of various jails, shades of jail.

5*s and a pin request, and the ratio is likely to go even more in favor of prisons given the current state of things.

And lose 55% of the mega corporations' labor force making 25 cents an hour? They'll continue to criminalize more shit every day, and build even more prisons while they're at it.

That's the truth! Couple days ago there was a thread up about jury nullification.

In it, I said I had been selected to sit on 2 big cases...the evidence was not beyond a reasonable doubt in either case...no way I was locking them up.

free to break laws.
and Godless.
don't mix well

and becoming a police state
then no freedom to break laws
people will be scared to spit on the street--like north korea--no criminals there.

for a free enterprise market system to work you must have Christian based school system.

this Godless education system is the root cause of this mess.

Wonder how many items within arms reach were made either by a prisoner for 25 cents an hour or a six year old Chinese kid for 25 cents a day?

So many jobs have left the U.S. for China, India, Mexico, etc. via "outsourcing." And many remaining jobs have been "insourced" to the private prisons for profit prison industrial complex.

Guess that leaves us to fight for the few remaining decent jobs while trying not to get locked up over something or another, right?
