Where Is the Land of the Free?

The U.S.A. calls itself the land of the free, but this is not an accurate description. Twenty-five of the people imprisoned worldwide are in the U.S.A. The population of the U.S.A. is less than the world's population. Most of those in prisons in this country are not white. There are definitely race issues in the justice system in this country. Prison sentences for whites are usually more lenient than they are for non-whites. We are told that the U.S. stands against tyranny in other countries. This is only true if the tyrants in other countries interfere with the interests of the U.S. During World War II there were people from Spain who fought with the Allies in the hope that something would be done about Franco in Spain. This did not happen. I guess that Spain did not have oil or anything that this country wanted, so Franco's activities in Spain were mostly ignored by the U.S. government. The U.S. has a history of supporting tyrants who help the U.S. get oil. American companies can get cheap labor in China, so the human right violations in that country are overlooked. The megarich and megacorporations have more influence in Congress than the average citizens. Where is the land of the free? It is not the U.S.A.
