I disagree with this. You are effectively making the assertion that most cops are dishonest - which I find to not be true. I do not support private prisons, but only a small portion of prisoners are locked up in privately run facilities currently. "133,000 state and federal prisoners housed in privately owned prisons in the US, constituting 8.4% of the overall U.S. prison population." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_prison
Is there a difference between the republicans and democrats these days? I already know who I am voting for next election; anybody BUT.
welcome to the party! We have been saying this since 1970 and very little has changed. Same old tired arguments. Exact same arguments. Nothing changes until somebody can sell it. And that means some money changing hands. I'm over it. You legalize it. I'll just lay low and grow my own.
yes, the ABTI party. Many say they will vote that way but few ever actually do. They even removed it from my ballot to keep people from voting that way.
If you look closely at the chart the increase in rates of female incarceration is up in proportion to male incarceration rates.
I usually vote libertarian or constitution party. In Tennessee you also have the option of a write in for any office. Last local election I wrote my own name in for several elections.
we could go the other way. We could give every city or county or state 30 million dollars and tell them, "You can keep this money free and clear, but we will charge you 90k for every prisoner you incarcerate." Then let's see who is more interested in public safety and who is more interested in money.
