It is definitely a sad statement of where the country is going when there is a strong financial incentive to imprison people for minor crimes and give them long sentences, all to make a buck. It has ceased to be about punishment and rehabilitation.

um, why do ya think pot is banned eh? the sytem is based on PROFIT and they make the most of their citizens by imprisoning them for lame shit like smoking pot at home and if you get sick you pay your ass off to some profitably working health care system (profitable for the system, not for YOU)
