The concept of a private, for-profit prison is blowing my mind right now.

That's a good one MrM. Looks like he prolly survived that.

How far Matty are you from work in miles?

 

[Matty]

0.87 MrM

 

[MrMonkey]

First off I like the exact precise number of .87! No speculative crap that will waste my time giving out the proper solution cause the wrong premise was given to me! MrsM, Peanut , and I walked over that number earlier today!

It's no doubt walkable and from your self-described heaviness issue, it's a win-win scenario!

MrM I've been walking to work for the better part of the last 10 years.

MrM I have bad genes.

 

[MrMonkey]

OMG! How far was the walk previously?

 

[Matty]

I forget.

 

[MrMonkey]

More or less than now?

yep, this is not new. The public is nothing but a pawn, a commodity, a tool for profit, growth and power.
This is the natural result of capitalism and this can only get worse as technology advances and the need for employing the herds decreases.

Once you grasp that idea it gets worse when i started reading to find out that now judges are owning prisons...

EDIT: looks like plommer already started the talk

I saw a guy get killed on the 401 near Woodstock about 7 years ago. He parked his bike on the left side shoulder (fast lane) and stepped on to the 401 to retrieve something, he never saw the Hyundai that knocked him 15 ft in the air and killed him.

Made a mess of the Hyundai and the 19 yr old female college student driver was pretty messed up emotionally, not hurt physically.

Matty, I've witnessed a man die, personally.
