Is The Prison System Solely about Monetary gain?

Do criminals really commit crimes simply because they are the most angry and hateful people on the planet? I don't think so. Do you think crimes are committed do to miseducation and manipulation of the economically inferior situation? Sure do. Is jail the modern day slave system in disguise? Maybe. However, one true fact that remains is The 13th amendment states that conviction of a crime is most certainly punishable by nothing other than SERVITUDE (slavery) which means you basically have no rights in prison whatsoever and your role in life becomes that of a servant to the state and corporate business. 

In a system in which big business and corporate production far exceeds regards for natural human rights as well as life itself. A lot of things that are about those who are in charge may be untrue, on the other hand, one things that remains is that the fact is that there are very few people who are benefiting from the things that are going on in this world. Is it ironic that the same people (Blacks) that was supposedly freed from the hands of involuntary servitude are the same folks that pack Amerikkkas prisons today? Or does that seem to be a mere conspiracy at hand? Or is it simply coincidence? Amerika has the largest prison population in the world exceeding 2 million prisoners.

 How ironic is it that the worlds so called greatest nation has the highest prison population with a number that exceeds two-million. Does that mean there are over 2 million evil people living here? Doubt it. Around 90% of the crimes that are committed are derivative crimes of the higher ups in society; that's why this prison industry will be sustained because the so called problem of crime is being attacked picking at the leaves when we know the roots has to be attacked if you want to kill the tree.

Once that it was realized that the prison business was more profitable than the free market economy itself the country has been in trouble. 

Ever since president Ronald Reagan declared a was on drugs in the 80's the prison industry and population itself has since been rising; while at the time the prison population was on the decline. Possession of a controlled substance has been one of the primary charges in which got and kept numerous people imprisoned. William F. Buckley (The creator of The National Review, and a member of the Bilderberg group) once said "Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could." In 2003 alone the FBI reported that there were 755,186 people arrested on marijuana charges which is a record number of arrests, on the other hand, there were less than 600,000 arrests for violent offenders. Blacks make up 59 percent of those convicted on drug possession and make up 38 percent of all offenders. The drugs are all throughout the black and poor communities alike, they might possess it for the most part but they did not bring them there. Too poor to own the boats and planes that it got here on.

Blacks have been railroaded as the permanent underclassmen when it comes to the prison industry. As they say the proof is in the pudding. This whole thing looks to be a systematic attack on controlling the working class and from rebelling against there economically oppressive tactics. Political prisoner, Ruchel Magee said, "Slavery is being practiced by the system under color of law. Slavery 400 years ago, and slavery today is the same thing but with a new name. They're making millions of dollars enslaving blacks, poor whites and others... people who don't even know that they are being railroaded." 
When it comes to the corporate business side of the prison industry there are numerous corporations who have their hand in that jar. Prison labor is the way to go for the corporate figures because the workers CANNOT strike, NO LABOR UNIONS, NO UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE. Just under 40 states have legalized the contracting of prison labor to the private corporations. The profit margin due to the prison industry has arisen from just under 395 million to well over  1 billion dollars all from slave labor for the likes of companies such as IBM, Boeing, Motorola, Microsoft, AT&T Wireless, Texas Instruments, Dell, Compaq, Honeywell, Hewlett-Packard, Nortel, Lucent Technologies, 3com, Intel, Northern Telecom, Revlon, Macy's, Pierre Cardin, and Target. Boeing, Victoria Secret, and Eddie Bauer have conducted in subcontracting using low-cost prison labor to produce aircraft components, lingerie, and software packets.
TWA contracts with California Youth & Adult Correctional facility to use prisoners to make airline reservations according to Julie Light of Corporate Watch Magazine. It is almost impossible to organize people in jail due to the simple fact that they have NO RIGHTS. As you can see the prison business is huge there are still things ranging from waterbeds to cap and gowns that produced in prison. The prison system just like every other system implemented by the elitists is basically one of complete control and one that will be completely beneficial to them. In prison they have you down to where your straight cattle with NO RIGHTS and for the "free" we are governed by the 2 MILLION LAWS it takes to run a society. You heard! two-million laws.

Man Each one teach one. Martha Stewart doesn't go to jail for breaking federal laws, but lil kim had to do a bid for no snitching and the government made sure they got Mike Vick. From a corporate standpoint the prison business is a cheap and smart move. From a Humanitarian standpoint the prison business is foul. Prison should be a time of Reform discipline and Reflection, Not non existent wage Labor. Its the country we live in. Where we care more about Money then Safety and Education,Employment and Environment.
