Government Cages, and the Criminals In Charge - lewrockwell.com
"...America’s system of mass incarceration,
in which we today imprison 25 percent of all the world’s prisoners
although Americans are only 5 percent of the global population...most prisoners
are poor and never had adequate
legal defense...people of color in our urban 'internal
colonies' are worth nothing on the streets but, in cages, each generates
$40,000 to $50,000 a year for corporations"

"According to information provided by the State of Washington, more than 90% of felony defendants were indigent at the time of there arrest."
