It's said we're a nation of laws, but more accurately, we're a nation of criminals. Political corruption is as old as the latin language. And in 2008 America had 4.2 % of the World's population but had 20% of the World's incarcerated population. If you encountered 100 people, one should have been incarcerated. Logically: One out of the 100 U.S. Senators should have been locked up. But with 33 trillion dollars in debt, the U.S. Congress and the President committed crimes against the American people and the Natural World.
