  1. From the video: 25% of the world's prisoners are in America

    That's incredible...

    How about you get your own house in order before lecturing the rest of the world about democracy and freedom?

  2. I saw this a year or so ago and spent some time trying to track down the source for these facts. I couldn't find anything that looked halfway reliable. There are probably too many prisons and prisoners in America, but if you're going to say "93% of all domestically-used paint" is manufactured by prisoners I think the burden is on you to show some documentation.

  3. We're not going to let a bunch of fact checkers run our prisons!
