I wonder, wonder, wonder

Given this:


"Right now, there's a proposal sitting on your governor's desk from a company called the Corrections Corporation of America. They're offering to buy and run prisons in your state and all across the nation — but only if states agree to keep the prisons at least 90% full." (From the ACLU)


Don't  you think it a bit coincidental this:


Gov. Rick Snyder said Wednesday that he wants more cops on the streets, more evidence techs in labs and a more focused approach to address crime in Michigan's most crime-ridden cities -- Detroit, Pontiac, Flint and Saginaw.


We're not doing well enough on public safety," Snyder said in a speech at Flint City Hall. "We need to step it up."  (From today's Free Press here)

The cities Snyder noted are also among the state's poorest--you'll note Snyder said nothing about helping them economically.  Another case of the 99% getting fucked at the expense of the 1%.

Nerd my ass--fucking sociopath is more like it.

Peace,
