The top score would be Gaza tho with 100% of its population being prisoners of Israel.

Israel is trying to zero out that number as quickly as they can.

It's too hilarious it can't be intentional that the top country not America is El Salvador which is where you're questionably sending all your black and brown people.

Interesting how it's southern states at the top eh?

Can't have anything to do with the fact that the US legally allows prisoner slavery right?

Winder what the race ratio of the prison population is.

This is the country routinely accusing other countries of having "prison camps."

Legit amazed California wasn't higher on the list. They've been doing mass-incarceration at an industrial scale since the 70s. But I guess the population is big enough that the per-capita statistics work out.

States like Alabama, Louisiana, and Oklahoma have such small and anemic populations and dedicate so much of their domestic budget to incarceration that they're basically giant publicly subsidized slave plantations.
