The 2008 Pennsylvania "Kids for Cash" scheme involved 2 judges sentencing all juveniles to a private youth prison in return for kickbacks.

Nationwide the dysfunction, corrupt, adversarial, for profit family courts inflict ACEs on family after family leading to one parent in jail for onerous un-payable child support and the children in incredibly high ACEs scores who then also risk jail time for resulting behaviors.

US is already leading the world in incarcerating its own people. We are now on a constant ever growing morbid spiral to creating and feeding this ever growing demand for more jail space.

Parents and children subject to this extreme attachment based complex trauma are rendered zombies, the difference between Hitler's death camps is that here the survivors are physically alive but otherwise dead. The resulting aftermath drives multiple generations of these broken families ("cannon fodder") into poverty where the police state eagerly awaits to profit a few.

The ACE trauma informed need to spread the word among each and every able citizen. We then need to rise united using the full power of the democratic process and rescue our country, families, children, and individuals from this "insanity".
