Violent crime and property crime have declined since the early 1990s.[11] WAR ON DRUGS + PRIVATE PRISONS = $$$$$$ per Body held there. PLUS...

A convicted felons total sentence is financed thrugh prison bonds on wall street. they discount the total cost of the sentence and get paid upfront..the money is then available for further nvestment..hence there is lots of incentive to convict people and keep them in prison....PURE EVIL USA |
