Criminal Reform: Reforming Bad People and Bad Laws

What is shiny and looks great on a Republican? HANDCUFFS!
The first thing you should keep in mind is that most Republicans and many corporate leaders should be in prison for life. They are worst kinds of criminals. They are the reason that companies like Glaxo Smith Kline, Bristol Meyers Squibb and Duke Energy are killing people with their coal plants and deadly drugs.  Republicans never stop being on the corporate payroll. So here is the reform. When individuals commit criminal acts on behalf of corporations not only do the individual law breakers get criminally prosecuted but if they are found guilty the company officers and boards of directors face criminal charges such as well.

Maybe instead of sending our criminal politicians a reform proposal send them and the news media signed petitions with some or all of the following suggestions? 

The first thing I would do with prison reform is get rid of prison canteens and the inmates get fed wholesome prison food only. Behavior would improve and the guards would lace less violence. Since most Americans today are gluttons that would be real incentive to reform. 

Brain scans for all violent and drug addicts to find out just how messed up they really are. The fixable ones get fixed the FUBAR ones get caged for life or kept on a short leash.

Mandatory life for pedophiles and violent rapists. Mandatory life for false rape reports.

Triple the penalties on criminal cops. Any cop who arrested anyone that they knew was innocent receives a mandatory 10 years. Cops who framed innocent people receive a mandatory 20 years. Police brutality gets up to 30 years depending on the severity.

Drug abusers and drunks get mandatory rehab and if they repeat hard time for a year or more.

Now for the deterrents and the fun stuff.

As you know laws are allegedly in place to protect the good people from the bad people but unfortunately it doesn't usually work out that way. Today most laws are designed and enforced to create revenue for the corrupt  members of society aka the 1% and the corporate criminal elite. Most real crime today is white collar crime which usually goes unpunished and or ignored. The only people punished by the 102 million dollar Duke Energy fine are the customers. The criminals who ordered the illegal dumping got away with it, same as the victims of doctors who knowingly prescribe kickback drugs that harm patients. This is how it works in a fascist kleptocracy. 

Violent criminals get housed with corporate and political criminals. The violent criminals get special privileges like being allowed to anally rape the corporate criminals. No condoms allowed if the violent raping inmate has an STD.

Corporate gangsters will be subject to forfeiture laws and if their family members helped them hide assets HARD TIME for them!

All marijuana convictions will be over turned.

End Prosecutorial Immunity

Any prosecutor who knowingly prosecutes innocent people convicted the way Mike Nyfong did with the Duke lacrosse players faces public execution by firing squad and the most death penalty zealous judge has be the one to pull the trigger or we can have a lottery and the winner gets to execute people like Nyfong.

Less Greedy Scumbag Doctors = Less Theft, Death and Injury

MDs who take bribes mandatory should receive mandatory life and if their wrong doing results in death then a temporary imposition of  Sharia law CHOP CHOP or a weed death by a weed whacker.. their choice. The majority of American doctors take bribes. Find out if your MD is on the take. ProPublica has a tool called Dollars for Docs that has a search tool that purports to show whether your health professional received drug company money.

Kleptocratic America

In a democracy these suggestions would be implemented but America is no longer and functioning democracy. We are a democracy in name only, What America is now is a corporate fascist keptocracy run by a not so shadowy gang of criminal and immoral plutocrats. 

Welcome to Amerika peasants!

Pure evil people actually believe that they are good.

List Of North Carolina Most Deadly Coal Plants

North Carolina has 67 operating coal-fired power units at 25 locations totaling 13,279 megawatts (MW).

A Shocking History of North Carolina's Coal Plants

Coal-fired power plants produced about 62 percent of the electricity generated in North Carolina. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) projects this amount to be 67 percent by 2010.[1]
North Carolina produces a disproportionately large amount of carbon dioxide, in large part because of the state’s numerous coal plants, and ranks 14th in the nation in CO2 emissions. The state produces 77 million tons of CO2 every year, an amount only slightly less than California’s 79 million tons, despite the fact that North Carolina’s population is one quarter the size of California.[2]

One of Duke Energy Coal Ash Spills
North Carolina-based Duke Energy is planning an 800MW expansion at its Cliffside plant that would emit an additional 6.25 million tons of CO2 per year. Duke Energy is the nation’s third largest producer of carbon dioxide, emitting 108 million tons of CO2 per year, despite CEO Jim Rogers’ public calls for federal legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Duke’s eight plants in North Carolina produce 41 million tons of CO2 each year, more than half of the state’s total yearly carbon dioxide emissions.[2]
In May 2010 the Union of Concerned Scientists released a report titled, Burning Coal, Burning Cash: Ranking the States that Import the Most Coal. In the paper the group reported that North Carolina was the second most coal dependent state in the country, spending $2.3 billion on coal imports in 2008.[3]

Cost of Coal Compared to Other Fuels


Fuel                     Cost             Btu Content         $/MMBTU

Wood Chips      $34/ton            5,000 Btu/lb          $4.25

Switchgrass      $60/ton            7,500 Btu/lb          $5.00

Coal                   $120/ton            25 MMBtu/ton       $6.00

Oil                       $2.50/gal        140 MBtu/gal           $22.32

Natural Gas      $1.25/therm      100 MBtu/therm    $15.63


Switchgrass  


• A native, warm season grass

• Requires minimal fertilizer and water

• Can grow on marginally productive land

• Harvest with traditional agricultural equipment

• Switchgrass will yield 3-4 tons per acre

• Low density, benefits to densifying

• Immature market: Harvesting would create jobs for decent people



Natural Gas 


  • Is the cleanest fuel next to hydrogen
  • Requires drilling and fracking
  • Failing gas pipe infrastructure
  • Natural gas is highly explosive
Oil     

  • Can be burned far more cleanly than coal.
  • Not renewable
  • Expensive
  • Causes major environmental disasters
  • Drilling and refining is dangerous

Wood Chips 



  • Can be burned cleanly
  • Renewable 
  • Not enough trees to meet demand

Coal 

  • Coal mining harms the environment and kills the miners.
  • Coal ash kills
  • Fly ash from coal kills
  • Coal cannot be burned cleanly
  • Coal plants increase cancer rates
  • Coal plants cause many diseases in children
  • Coal stinks


Duke Energy and their well payed whore NC Governor Pat McCrory are examples of corporate gangsters who kill and rape our kids.
