Drugs. MAJORITY of 2 million U.S. prisoners. USA has highest incarceration rate.

08-11-2001 19:57

This web page is good for exposing the true magnitude of the U.S. drug war. Reproduce freely. Copy any or all of it, and distribute. Or just pass on the page description and link. The MAJORITY of the 2 million U.S. inmates are incarcerated due to the drug war! The Drug-War Industrial Complex. The U.S. drug-war inmate MAJORITY is calculated by adding together inmates committing drug crimes, drug-related crimes (such as robbing to get money for drugs that are expensive because of the drug war), drug-related parole violations, etc.. The USA has 5% of the world's population and 25% of the world's 8 MILLION prisoners.
