The Bureau of Justice provides statistics on crime and prison populations. I still do not see where you got your numbers.
Here is your link

I didn't post any numbers.
I commented to Zon, "over two million in prison".
Right at the top of the page you posted back to me from my link: "WASHINGTON -- During the year that ended last June 30, the nation's prison and jail population grew 2.6 percent, reaching 2,186,230 inmates behind bars, the Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) announced today."

If it's the 1.3% you want to know about...Ask Zon.
Zon's post is in italics. The original post:

To: Zon
The year before the 1914 Harrison Anti-drug Act 1.3% of the US population was addicted to drugs. In 1970, 1.3% were addicted to drugs. In 2003, 1.3% were addicted to drugs.

Liberties lost, over two million in prison and drug addiction has remained the same!
