I wasn't arguing that there are or aren't Supermax prisons for nonviolent criminals. I was saying that lying -- even under oath -- is not a crime worthy of such expensive punishment.
That said, I'd like to see some support for this claim of yours.
Just Google it; there are non-violent offenders who are locked-up in SuperMax prisons. I am saying that such is at least politically possible; the US has been known to do such things, and if Hillary ended-up in jail under a Republican administration (which is extremely unlikely, a real smoking-gun would have to be found), then such is certainly possible. Republicans are great at making endless excuses to justify their insane actions; just look at the recent changes in voting laws to disenfranchise blacks and other poorer minorities.
