ALL HAIL CAPITALISM

ALL HAIL CAPITALISM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU7h6gQvU...ature=plcp

Corrections Corp of America (CCA), a huge private prison business, has a presentation for investors that just might creep you out. How much money is made by locking people up? Ana Kasparian and guest host Michael Shure discuss the prison industrial complex, the failed drug war, and the incentive to push for profits over a safer society.

Unfortunately that only confirms the worst.

It is, in fact, conspiring to incarcerate as many people as possible in order to exploit their misery and your tax dollars.

I would say that falls under the heading of organized crime.

And all of it in "the land of the free!" that's already got the world's largest prison population.

its clearly fascism...this isnt the land of the free. I have gotten to where I almost panic when a cop gets near me. They can make up anything, shoot your ass , whatever...you will lose and your tax dollars pay for it.

Why do you fear the policeman?
Have you done something illegal to get their attention?

The criminal "justice" system is the only growth industry we have left.

The video is a fine example of the "invisible hand of the market."

They would have to do it in order to protect their greed. They would take all of our safety net away and turn THIS into our safety net...already many people are willing to go to jail for life just to be able to get health insurance.

The video is a fine example of the "invisible hand of the market" fucking everybody over for the further benefit of those who already have money.

What is wrong with people. Since when has the profit motive and justice motive ever had overlapping interests.
Self-authenticating private evidence is useless, because it is indistinguishable from the illusion of it. ― Kel, Kelosophy Blog

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic.
