One of the factors in the US is the gradual privatization of the penitentiary system and the political influence of their lobbies on this issue. Private jails always need more criminals to stay financially viable and they are logically less inclined to favor rehabilitation into society over successive re-incarceration, regardless what the committed crimes are. In that perspective, it isnt hard to understand that marijuana smokers/dealers became a gold mine for their business and that it is for their own economic interests to lobby against the legalization of marijuana and for the strengthening of drug laws. Its a $70 billion worth industry that keeps growing each year to the point its becoming an insult to reality, reason and justice. According to the Rutherford Institute, despite the fact that violent crime in America has been on the decline, the nations incarceration rate as tripled since 1980. A study from the Federal Bureau of Prisons concludes : the majority of those being held in federal prisons are convicted of drug offenses—namely, marijuana. Presently, one out of every 100 Americans is serving time behind bars
