OUR NATIONAL LABOR GROUPS ARE RELATIVELY ABSENT FROM THE WORK OF PRISON REFORM, BUT IT'S GLARING WHEN VIRGINIA'S OWN ARE SILENT TO THE POINT OF ABSCONDING, IN LIGHT OF THE FACT FORMER RANK AND FILE ELEMENTS ARE NOW CLAD IN THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS "UNIFORMS OF BRUTALITY" By William Thorpe

The organization of our Human Condition as Society on the mechanism of the Social Contract, has as its attention, the business of being human, or its encompassing character, Work. This supremacy appearance of Work begins its assertion also from the Religious Genesis 2:2 "And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done". Then its Human Condition directive begins at Genesis 3:23 "therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken". To its bookend emergence as legend on the entrance to the Nazi Death Camp Auschwitz," Work Shall Set You Free", where its definition was the administration of the extermination of the human being. The killing and extermination of the human being as Work, had of course preceded its Auschwitz practice, but to my knowledge Auschwitz, had the unique temerity to appropriate the aphorism "work shall set you free", as organizer. I've given this illustration of "work" to show it's primary basis, which then enables me to now say this, if "work" is that activity of life, but as it concerns this work, human life, then all organizing aspects and constructs of the human condition, as revealed as society on the dicta of the social contract are all and only about work. As such it has two diametric 1) that which permits its unimpeded motion and (2) and its maintenance. With its maintenance, we encounter the various forms and types of it's governance or a Government. For a quick definition of government, BLACK'S LAW defines as:The structure of principles and rules determining how a state or organization is regulated. 2, The sovereign power in a nation or state. So let's get a basic understanding of what is this, "sovereign power". Again BLACK'S LAW defines it as: Police Power, The inherent and plenary power of a sovereign to make all laws necessary and proper to preserve the public security, order, health, morality and justice. It is a fundamental power essential to government, and it cannot be surrendered by the legislature or irrevocably transferred away from government. I BEGIN: No one argues, not even the conceited addled among us that the only function of Life, more specifically, human life, isn't that of WORK, which I'll define as idea (conclusion, formulation) +intent (urge)= act, action (production, create).Work which is all and only about the business of being human, meaning securing sustenance and supporting circumstances for human life existence is the organizing focus and attention or purpose of our human condition. As such it brings out the best and worst in us. The worst, is what I want to focus on, because that "worst", is what impels and creates the need for reform, because fundamentally, that worst, has as its psychology, an antagonistic existence or a corrupting effect on relationship terms and values of the social contract which then seeps into the common daily interaction of social existence, which means its impact is squarely and directly on "work", which in society is organized as Labor. This work isn't to instruct Labor on course of action, but this work is clarity on the fact that, the essential purpose of the Police Powers and its state organized violence, existing also as the Justice Infrastructure, with prison as administrator, has a purely coercive and punitive function, that of ensuring Labor is subordinated.
