Largest prison population both in absolute size AND per capita. Also, random fact, their constitution allows prisoners to be forced into slave labour. Also, another random fact, their prisons are run for profit. None of these facts are related of course!
Next you’re going to tell me that these for-profit prisons lobby the government for harsher prison sentences for things like cannabis possession.
Reminder that the US have never abolished slavery for prisoners and have one of the largest slave population in the world.
And potentially somewhere around half of that population is in there for non-violent crimes, with alot of inmates in for drug offenses, it’s absolutely ridiculous. Focus on the people that need to be in prisons, the violent sociopaths, stop trying to turn more people into criminals.
And an huge colonial empire ( europe/japan/korea )
The US isn’t a colonial empire.
The US is one of the biggest colonial empires in history.
Then it should be easy to provide an example of a US colony.
Nato countries, easy.
You can’t seriously believe that, come on.
