In a capitalist democracy where democracy has been subverted by lobbyists and wealth to rewrite laws, encoding imbalance into the system that has allowed said wealth to form in the first place without the society destroying itself… everything is for sale. There’s money to be made so in America they throw peoples lives away in prison for pot. Because it makes tons of money especially for private prison owners. So many corrupt fingers in the pot, a booming industry. Lots of payroll to keep up.
