40k+ people in jail for marijuana @ ~$20,000 / year
There are approximately 40,000 people in federal, state, and local cages (a.k.a. hell on Earth) for plain ol marijuana-related charges. People like you and me. Tax payers pay anywhere from $20,000 to $40,000 PER prisoner PER year to keep these guys locked up making the decision as an adult that they liked marijuana.
Isn't that a little disturbing? These are approximate figures from the Bureau of Justice Statistics Prison Statistics. People are doing HARD TIME for cultivating and smoking a plant that predates U.S. black-robed law gods by many thousands of years.vostro Reviewed by vostro on . 40k+ people in jail for marijuana @ ~$20,000 / year There are approximately 40,000 people in federal, state, and local cages (a.k.a. hell on Earth) for plain ol marijuana-related charges.
