    iirc the most incarcerated population on the planet by rate is actually El Salvador, due to the recent gang crackdown which involves having masked military units surround a community, perform door-to-door searches, and throw suspects into enormous new prisons. (to be fair, the gang tattoos often make this obvious.) I mention this because some US Republicans think this is a great idea.

      Nope, the US still has more prisoners and prisoners per capita than all other nations.
