Protocol for Processing Prisoners
“We call this the barbershop,” said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat. “Everybody’s getting a haircut here, in terms of the conditions of the bill,” she said, noting the likely impact on labor, bondholders, shareholders, car dealers, suppliers and executives. “The management itself has to take a big haircut on all of this.”
That’s Nancy Pelosi, reminding everyone that the state is in power, with the ability to FORCE you to do what the state desires you to do, and her haircut metaphor is more than appropriate in regards to the matter of which she is speaking. Prisoners in all parts of the world are subject to the haircut, and while today the hair removed from individuals’ heads is no longer used to stuff mattresses, or form seals for submarine periscopes, the degradation and humiliation associated with haircuts, particularly shaved heads, is as powerful a means of control as it was in the gulags of Soviet Russia or the concentration camps of Germany.
