yeah, pretty fucked up, hu? they trade on the stock exchange, too, lots in the portfolios of the big dogs that own DC. It has been a constant growth industry thoughout the normal business cycles for decades. :wtf:

haha..........yeah it is a serious reality check, now look into the justice system here, you will find they are connected. It is a business and if you find your self involved it is not in your favor. Only you need about 3 billion to buy a Prison not 3 million, a 3 million dollar jail is like for 30 people or less, and cost about 3-5 mill a year to run.

At some point the business side won the fight and now it is all business. And as long as there are enough people to pay taxes then it is in their favor to keep those prisons full and over crowded so the need to make more prisons is a priority. smoke or propaganda is hard to see through sometimes

Going against the machine is a battle won by few.

Kind of reminds me of the movie: War. INC
I believe it has the dad out of My Girl in it. (im terrible with names)

Americas at war with Iraq but its not America...if i remember,the countrys run by gatorade...or someone of the likes.

Ever hear of the Bilderberg Group? They sound just like everyones saying.
They meet every year (used to be in the Americas somewhere) now they meet in Europe,under the New-ish European Union.

According to theorists and believers, i being part of the latter, this group is in control of the world and is considered by many as the NWO ( New World Order )

Note the Euro Dollar. According to the same theories ( to this i wont put my name ) there is meant to be an Amero ( the american euro dollar ) and one for the Australasian region called the Pacifico..these are meant to be the 3 "super states" of the new world.

Listen to Barack Obama next time...he always mentions "the new world"

So I believe profusely anything government is owned by the retail sector...and the retail sector is the new government...take my gf for example...she doesnt recognise our Prime Minister...but recognises a french supermodel from a glimpse at the side of a bus.

Prisons have been privately run capitalist ventures for YEARS in this country. It's nothing new. Some of you younger folks are just now finding out the truth - thats all. Old farts, like me, have known this for years.

Thats why there are so many people in prison for petty drug offenses. It's all about the money. It's all about greed.

Corporate America runs this country and don't you forget it. :wtf:

Nobody dared open an MMJ dispensary during the Bush yrs. (2000-2008) - even though MMJ had been legalized in many states already. It wasn't until Obama (a Democrat :thumbsup took over the White House that people started to operate dispensaries, write prescriptions and pass laws to regulate the MMJ business.

Republicans are bad for working Americans. Republicans are bad for your freedom!! I wish people would wake up and see that for themselves.

They actually opened dozens in Cali during the Bush years...What I think is messed up is that in this tough economic time, several states have resorted to selling their gov buildings and then leasing them back so that they can have enough money right now to make it by! It's like going to a payday advance place, they give you the money you need right now but at what final cost?
