War on Drugs
Thanks in part to the War on Drugs, more than half of the inmates in the federal prisons are there because of drug-related offenses.
It’s a staggering statistic, one that helps explain the explosive growth of the prison system over the past thirty years, as officials struggle to keep up with the influx of inmates convicted of, in many cases, minor drug possession.
