Just curious - the rates of incarceration in the US is extraordinary high - but I wonder if the rate of us is similar. It's a secret poll so no one will know the answer...
So - Have you been in Jail? On parole now? On the Run?
1 Out Of 32 Americans Under Correctional Supervision
1 out of every 32 of us is either in prison or on parole from prison, according to yet another report on Americans behaving badly from the Bureau of Justice Statistics.
This means that 6.7 million adult men and women -- about 3.1 percent of the total U.S. adult population -- are now very non-voluntary members of America's "correctional community."
