Yeah, what we have created in this country is a growth industry for the
privatization of penal institutions. The corporations pressure the
legislators to pass more laws and stiffer sentences so more people can
be imprisoned for longer periods of time and so the private slams will
be guaranteed more income. It's a wonderful system and requires a lot
less brainpower than something that might actually work.
What would you do to handle the drug problem?
I don't claim to have *the* solution, but I do know that creating a
growth industry in prisons for the private sector ain't it. I think
decriminalizing simple possession for personal use would be a good
starting point, though.
