Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
We're spending an enormous amount of money on the prison system. Shouldn't we be getting more productive better citizens out of it? People who have the skills to stay out of prison and pay taxes? If I send my laptop to be fixed and they sent back ripped in half I'd lose my damn mind. We're sending petty criminals in and getting back people who are never going to hold a legal job again. Pretty shitty national investment.
1) Hippies and black people cause too much trouble during the civil rights era and Vietnam war
2) Give millions of people time in prison for weed and other drugs, costing between 50k and 90k a person per a year from the tax payer. Somehow have more prisoners than North Korea and China. Combined. (Seriously, look it up) Convince the voting populace that these people deserve it because they broke the law (that was just made) through intense school programs and such making weed and other drugs out to be the devil. Be sure to only enforce these laws strictly in poor neighborhoods so that there's no outrage among those with the means to do something about it or wealthy lawyers snorting coke.
3) Pay the prisoners nothing or almost nothing to use their
slavecorrectional labor to make uniforms for McDonald's, all the helmets in the military, etc., subsidizing the military industrial complex that these hippies, poors and blacks protested. Use the money from fines to give huge police forces and city workers jobs and trinkets, allowing stepped up enforcement in poor neighborhoods and more prisoners so more fines/free labor so... You see where this is going.4)When the prisoners are released, strip them of their right to vote so they can't change the system, give them an unerasable felony record so they can't get another job and will likely fall into prison again because the only adequately paying jobs that will take them are prostitution and drugs. Also you'll get longer sentences for unrelated crimes if you have a criminal record (see: man sentenced to life in prison for stealing slice of pizza for reference).
5) ??????
6) Profit
Legalize all drugs and prostitution. This is the only solution. Then tax and regulate it. If we had government brothels along the lines of Bunny Ranch in Nevada where the women are tested and everythingโs legit then it gets rid of pimps. Legalizing drugs gets rid of all the drug cartels. It seems we never learned from prohibition.
Orlando resident here. I know it is pedantic but it's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me..
In the opening scene to this documentary he says "The thing about Orlando, it is one of the sex trafficking capitols of the United States because of Disneyland" ...as they are passing underneath the entrance to Walt Disney World.
"Disneyland" - Anaheim, California.
"Walt Disney World" - Orlando, Florida.
Edit: quotation.
Pretty weird seeing Worcester main South in a documentary. "Corner of benefit and main? Yep, that is where the prostitutes are."
Goddammit I can't watch this documentary, although I'd like to, because the bloody incidental music is the loudest bloody thing I can hear.
Don't make it distracting.
Don't make it loud.
I still donโt get how it costs the government 50K and up on a prisoner per year . I donโt spend anywhere near that and eat much better food. Money going elsewhere perhaps?
this was literally posted here 3 days ago.
If this piqued your interest I would also recommend Private Violence by Cynthia Hill. It's a good look on how exploitation and abuse goes right under our noses most, if not all of time.
