Head of Silk Road 2.0 Says It Will Be Back In Minutes If Shut Down

Daniel_Stuckey writes "It only took a month for the Silk Road 2.0 to go live after the now infamous Silk Road marketplace shuttered. One month. Should the budding deep-web bazaar experience the same fate as its predecessor, and be knocked out by authorities still whack-a-moling their way through the online front of the war on drugs, the Silk Road 3.0 would be up and running in 15 minutes, tops. That's according to the Dread Pirate Roberts, the pseudonymous head of SR 2.0. In what are arguably his most breathy public remarks to date the 'new' DPR, who either cribbed his handle from the DPR of SR 1.0 fame or who is indeed the original DPR, opened up to Mike Power on his long-term vision for the site."

No. Each occupied prison place costs. Prison inmates are mainly unproductive, and if they do work, then it's mainly work where you not need any high education, and where you don't have any real responsibility, so the jobs are relatively low paying ones. Thus prison inmates mainly cost money. They have to be feed, they have to be medically threated, they have to be watched around the clock etc.pp.

The only people who earn money on prison inmates are prison operators who charge the government for each inmate they take.
