We should invest in schools, not prisons and give kids an opportunity to succeed. #edchat @johnlegend

48% of inmates in federal prison are there for drug crimes. It cost almost twice what rehab does.

It's NOT a rehab.

More than half of the people in county jail and state prison have a mental health disorder

These are not hospitals

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

The prison system is the #1 provider of mental health services in the United States.

This is not their purpose.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

Where does the money go?

Prison labor and Walmart, they go together like peas and carrots.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

500% increase in profits for private prisons over the last decade.

This is a commercial industry, not justice.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

A 1,600% increase sine 1990. What other industry has grown like that?

Just follow the money to find out why.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

Who pays the greatest price for prisons?

Children and families who are left behind.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

High prison populations affect this generation and the next.

An intergenerational cycle of incarceration continues.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

Too often, the system is driven by politics and corporate greed...

Not justice.

[Bill Copland @wpcopland]

There are reasons why there are so many people in Americas prisons.

It is not that more Americans are bad people.
