What is wrong with this American portrait?

I found an interesting detail in those numbers. The similarity is that both crime and military service in America are voluntary. If we were other nations throughout History, both the army and the criminal population would be one and the same figure. Those in prisons would actually be sheeple used as slave labor. God Bless America.
