TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Oh, and we should probably not neglect to mention that not only does ALEC donate heavily to the political campaigns of those who support their interests, but also, the prison corporations they represent are publicly-traded and many lawmakers and judges are shareholders.

You might think that seems like a conflict of interest, but this is America, where we have Freedom.

They must have been working on a way to bring back legal slavery since the Emancipation.  :x

As a matter of fact, it was the abolition of slavery that initiated the practice of "convict lease", in which prisons leased out (mostly black) prisoners as a captive labor force to the plantations and businesses that had formerly relied on slave labor. This practice came to an end (for the time being) in 1933, but the War on Drugs created a boom in prison population in the 1980's, opening a grand new opportunity for incarceration profiteers. They have thrived, and are constantly seeking ways to expand their market.
