    I wouldn't call Cuba a free country but their incarceration rate (510/100k) is 26% lower than ours in the US (693). Are we a free country?

        looks like Cuba has hyperincarceration? Are Afro Cubans locked up at even higher rates?

        I'd be surprised if that weren't the case. Please reread 1st clause of my TW if you think I'm lauding Cuba.

        wasn't thinking that. Prison abolitionist here, wondering about colorism in Cuban context.

        Just plucked off Wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_incarceration_rate … Another good ranking here: http://www.prisonpolicy.org/global/

        True, largely due to different treatment re drug war. Tougher sentences for same behavior as whites.

        I wouldn't call it that either. Maybe if execute a bunch of people when you take over it lowers the crime rate.
