10. 30 yrs ago when Florida started to use private corrections corp to
run FL prisons, I said, "Mark my words! Now we'll have many more millions of people thrown in prison for idiotic reasons, longer sentences for small infractions, and more expensive jails! Because the corrections corps, wanting every dime they can get, will work to change the laws so it favors more ppl in prison and for longer times!"

Ya know, folks, I sure hate to be right nearly all the time, because I really am a cynical bitch. Can we possibly, somehow, start building a decent society instead of this Frankenstein monster we have now? Please?
