Posted Mar 30th 2009 6:05PM by TMZ Staff

Sorry Miss Jackson -- this is for real.

Andre Benjamin -- aka Andre 3000 from the rap group Outkast -- was arrested in his home state of Georgia this weekend after he was nailed for doing 109 mph in a 65 mph zone.

We're told Andre was taken to the Henry County Jail where he took a mugshot, posted $1,200 bail and was eventually released.

Hopefully we can turn this economy around and actually focus on solving the deeper, systemic issues for why we're in this situation. Obviously bad banking's a good place to start, but there are other issues, like global poverty, that have huge economic and geopolitical ramifications.

The Borgen Project (www.borgenproject.org) has some interesting insight into addressing the issues of global poverty, something we can remedy easily and sustainably.

Some interesting figures to ponder:
$30 billion USD: The annual shortfall to end global poverty.
$550 billion USD: The annual US defense budget.
