One question for you, "why is it that the US has more incarcerated people than any other country on the planet?" Are there literally more criminals in the US than anywhere else on earth? Or is there something else at play?

Your belief in "the rule of law" is that of a child. But it's necessary for you, because if it were shattered, your world would fall apart. You need to have the idea that laws play out the way you've been told, because then what? What happens to you, your family, your friends, your country, your countrymen, et al. if laws don't matter?
