> The last link above is a clickable U.S. map of state-by-state incarceration rates. The rates are for inmates per 100,000 state population. Note that no state in the USA has a rate less than 200. Louisiana (1025) and TEXAS (1014) (under Bush) had the highest rates in 1999. In 2001 (see the 4 links just above) it was Louisiana (1013) and TEXAS (966) that again had the highest incarceration rates with 1% OF THEIR POPULATIONS IMPRISONED. 2001 Federal incarceration rate of 52 was NOT added in to those numbers. In the USA it costs around $25,000 average per year for each inmate. Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS): "At midyear 2002 ... Males were incarcerated at the rate of 1,309 inmates per 100,000 U.S. men, while the female incarceration rate was 113 per 100,000 women residents." BJS quote above is from link below: |

*The majority of the 2.16 million prisoners in the USA are in due to the 666 drug war!
