- That state achieved the largest military industrial complex in the world
- That state achieved the largest prison industrial complex in the world
- That state achieved the highest incarceration rate in the world
- That state has been in continuous wars for its entire history
- That state has a written constitution but has institutionalized elaborate formal and informal workarounds
- That state has achieved the most massive infrastructure in the world
- That state has experienced an astounding number of fatalities from infrastructure
- That state has the largest mandatory public schooling system in the world
- That state has 100% of its population subject to a state regulated health industry
- That state has law enforcement arms that are engorged with killers
- That state has an espionage community dominated by OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder)
- That state has a justice system that is ensnared in red tape
… and so it goes.
