content: I think the real problem is sentencing these people for nonviolent drug crimes in the first place. The government needs the war on drugs to support its existence, but the premise that drugs are immoral is plain false. Why not have a sane law, where people are only punished for crimes with victims? We throw 1 in 100 people in cages. What purpose does this serve? Prison labor is cheap, I guess. We built america on the backs of slaves.
