Touche on that one. You are right, the migration of 110,000 Japanese to work camps and the like really set a bad precedent. I understand that even the Supreme Court went along with it.

Even my new country, Canada, did similar and it rubbed even more salt in the wound by confiscating their property and then selling it off at fire sale prices, under war conditions. Even after the war, people of Japanese descent were barred from returning to British Columbia for a long time. But, Canada had no constitution before 1982.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Jack', 'W')e have nearly 1% of the population behind bars.
And about 7,000,000 if you combine behind bars, probation, and parole.
Do you see any problems so far?

Yes, I see a problem with society generating a bunch of lawbreakers.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'Y')es, I see a problem with society generating a bunch of lawbreakers.

The "society" wants these lawbreakers. They are cheap labour.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'B')ut since 1979 prisons have been encouraged to let prisoners work directly for external commercial employers. At first this was conducted on a small scale, but in recent years the US prison population has exploded to more than two million people (from 300,000 in 1972 and one million in 1990). At the same time, the number of privately-operated prisons has jumped from five to 100 in the past decade alone, and is still growing.
Because it means the criminal justice and prison industry has become one of the biggest and fastest-growing sectors of the US economy. In 2004, for example, it employed 2.2 million people, more than General Motors, Ford and Wal-Mart combined. Scores of ‘prison towns’ have sprung up, where the flagging local economy depends on the local private prison – and towns compete on cost to ‘import’ long-term prisoners from state penitentiaries. Meanwhile, the private use of prison labour is legal in 37 states and has been enthusiastically embraced by dozens of household-name firms, including IBM, Boeing, Microsoft and AT&T.

Prisons for Profit has been highlighted by business channels, like CNBC as one of the few growth opportunities left.

The PBS show NOW did a segment on this a few weeks ago. Apparently the corporate prison CEO's are interfering with legislation designed to reduce sentences for those with non violent crime. The obvious implication there is kids who deal pot probably make pretty good worker/tenants.

The whole War on Drugs and criminalization of marijuana is about keeping the price of the drug really high and in the hands of drug dons, while funneling non violent dealer kids into the private prison system. So it's happening right now. Read up on the plea bargaining system, if you want to get an eyeful.

Peak oil is a bit alarming, but scarier is the tendency of the American govt towards fascism, with a push/pull from corporations.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('DomusAlbion', 'H')ow many members of PeakOil.com are on the list?
Curious minds want to know.

I'm fairly certain that I'm on there not because of my participation on this site but more likely due to my association with a certain other (political party) discussion board.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('smallpoxgirl', 'B')efore things get quite so bad, the government will almost certainly blame some group for engineering the hardship, and those people are likely to be rounded up and offered to the consumers as a human sacrifice. Oil speculators seem to be the present scape goat, but it will probably soon turn more towards ethnic and religious lines, Arab, Muslim, etc. ...

It always was , always has been and always will be ultimately the xtians. The whole thing is to blame and remove them. It's all an excuse, always was and always will be, except this time it won't work, because of two reasons: 1. it will get out of hand because of sever economic disaster, and 2. many countries have nuclear weapons. This is the last time they play this tune, and it is final and complete.

Now Now, you know there is no such thing as conspiracies, even though they are documented in Congressional records.

Aso please remember it was the REPUBLICAN WHIP asked about going to secret session...

We must remember , not matter who runs, to make sure no Republican ever gets voted into office again, you just can't trust these guys. Hey, since they do not like Obama lets vote for him.

I have a feeling the other democrat would rather have McCain win (their same neocon team) than have obama win. I think they are going to split the democratic confention and let Mckain win.

Just my thoughts. There is a huge agenda that muxt be pushed soon, and Obam isnt going to do it. It will be a miracle if he gets elected with digital voting booths.

When they go into double-super-secret session, it is time to stuff the mattresses and bury the goodies.

Youknow, some goofball was saying they may not let this election take place. I am starting to think he may have something there.

But - go about your happy business.

Yeah - ok.

I have upwards of almost 5,000 posts here - when you count roccman.

90% of the content of those posts are diluted with flip remarks for the casual reader when trolls paint a thin veneer of doubt on them.

I wonder why I volunteer my time to inform the likes of airplane pilot and planetagenet man...

My patience for trolls is coming to an end.

With the information available from the Kucinich interview, the closed door session would appear to be a political agenda event rather than a security issue.

The ramifications of Peak Oil extend to the New World Order the same as the Old World Order. There is no escaping natural laws (overshoot/collapse, peak oil/geology, GW, carrying capacity, resource depletion). While the potentially existing NWO/Bilderberg/Illuminati/Secret Government/people who run everything/ would find opportunity to seize control during an ordered Transition, the unfolding events would eventually strip them of power along with every other government in the world. Control demands energy, money, resources, all of which will be in decline as a result of PO.
