Who should I make the check out to? I don't accept charity and I insist on compensating you for all that real estate I'm occupying in your head.

There is a judge just outside of birmingham that has a daughter that owns the juvenile detention center. Her center provides juveniles to local business' through the work release program. her dad conveniently is the juvenile judge and sentences kids to time in her facility. He sends these kids to jail for shite that other judges do not and the state doesn't seem to have a problem with this.

It's only going to get worse. What possible reason would a for-profit prison have to try to rehabilitate a prisoner. That would cut directly into their profit. They want longer sentences and they want prisoners to return after they get out. It helps the bottom line.


Don't forget the Louisiana sheriffs, who make big money incarcerating state prisoners in their jails.

We house/transport federal prisoners. Feds pay better.

The help is there for people that have the money to not actually go to prison, not so much for the people that are actually behind bars

"...end the War on Drugs and it would taper off very sharply"

We need more addicts, especially younger ones! Not nearly enouogh now. Fall out: Higher unemployment, higher violent crime rates. Yeah, whoever said the end the war on drugs has got it figured out.
