    I am not flexing at all. It is what it is. You haven’t touched a nerve at all. Low-income people don’t grasp how much we pay in taxes since they don’t pay anything close to what we pay in taxes. It’s why they repeat buzzwords like tax the rich or the rich don’t pay their fair share when we do.

    It refutes your statement because you didn’t cite anything and just babbled. You are free to post a counter cite.

    Also your claim about private prisons was wrong as well. About 8% of the prison population is in a private prison.

    So far everything you have said is wrong.

      I don’t need to post a counter cite a 0.6% decline is nothing.

      Omg it must be so hard to have money. You should just give it away if you’re sick of paying all those taxes.

      Hahaha I know the 8% figure you’re talking about and it’s not that. The people who have been put into for-prisons in the past 2 years make up 8% of the imprisoned population, or about 13.5x the rate of people who left Oregon.

      Think about that though. 8% of all incarcerated people in for-profit prisons were put there in 2022. That’s a HUGE chunk of the imprisoned population in only the last few years, and it’s only going to get worse.
