While the US Market is closed, I thought you guys might want to read something interesting. Apparently, Occupy Wall St has developed a paramilitary arm, calling themselves the 'black bloc'. They believe that only force will change the current state in the USA and they may well be right.
I came across this after reading about an anonymous hack on CCA (for those who dont know who they are, they own prisons for pay and are currently trying to buy public prisons from broke US states, but only on the condition that they will pass the laws to make sure the jails are always close to full capacity. The entire idea just makes me sick.

Also on this page was this amazing piece of artwork that I would like to post. I do not know the name of the artist, but it is a truly amazing piece.
The Prison Industrial Complex is without doubt one of the most horrible creations of Corporate America. The fact that they are willing to by jails off municipalities that are in financial trouble means that there is a good chance they they will get quite a few of the jails in those 48 states, which could mark the largest expansion of the prison industrial complex since it's inception.
In my opinion, this is the real reason for the drug war in America. It has gone way past prohibition now, they need laws against victimless crimes to keep the jails full to keep the companies in profit. I'm sure that imprisoning a third of the black population also makes them much easier to control.
