Gary Edwards is a good guy. Its a shame he retired.

Anyone who says jail is too cozy and comfy needs to go spend a month or two there, sleeping on a concrete floor between a tweaker and a child molester.

Goinfishin hit it square on with his posts. I didn't get my sh*t together until I quit hanging out with my smalltown loser douchebag buddies. The first thing they asked me after not seeing them for a year was "When you moving back?" Those idiots still work assembly line and clean septic tanks for Minimum Wage to support their drug habits...or what they call "partying." I wonder if those failures realize they aren't cool and no one wants to party with their sorry asses anymore.

We have the highest percentage of our population imprisoned of any other country in the world. I don't know who's idea it was to sweep the high unemployment rate under the rug by locking up the unemployed, but I suspect it was Reagan and The War on Drugs that started it. It's only going to get worse to the point of Civil War if it keeps up, and it WILL keep up, now that Corporate America destroyed our Manufacturing Base. The way I see it unless drastic changes are made we're heading straight into an even Greater economic Depression (not just Recession) than the 1930's and violent class conflict a la 1790's France or 1920's Russia. It won't happen in this decade, but it may in my lifetime, and most likely will in my daughter's, if things aren't turned around and the production sector isn't returned to America and a leash isn't put on the Corporate system. Oh and if Civil War does happen--Stay the f*ck away from Utah if you aren't Mormon.
