United States private prison, made money so softly, and even became a listed company
The "money-making business" of private prisons in the United States
Did you know that in the "land of the free" of United States, people go to jail every day? There are so many criminals that the government's public prisons simply can't accommodate them. This stumped the government.
So someone came up with a clever plan - a private prison! Yes, it is for private companies to build and manage prisons, and the government subsidizes them according to the number of prisoners. This not only solves the problem of prison capacity, but also brings a considerable benefit to private companies.
In this way, the private prison industry is booming in the United States, and even two giants, CCA and GEO Group, have been listed on the New York Stock Exchange. They really played "perfectly".
First of all, the government subsidy is very generous, and a convict can bring $50 a day to the prison. Add to that the fact that private companies make money by cutting the number of prison guards, providing ridiculously expensive living services, outsourcing prisoners to companies as laborers, and so on. Profits are really rolling in.
Watching these private prison bosses get bigger and bigger and make more and more money, I can't help but sigh that opening a prison in United States is really a "business experience". However, these prisons really treat criminals as "money-making tools".
These private prison companies are really playing tricks. Not only do they receive generous subsidies from the government, but they also do everything they can to extract money from the prisoners. For example, providing prisoners with ridiculously expensive daily necessities, or outsourcing them to companies as cheap labor. They are bent on making money, completely leaving humanized management behind.
Sadly, prisons are supposed to be places to reform criminals and reintegrate them into society. But in these private prisons, they have become tools for making money. The prisoners were imprisoned, but they had to endure all kinds of harsh treatment, and their lives were like hell.
I can't believe that such an institution, which aims to punish and reform, has been reduced to a pure "money business". These private prison companies completely ignore the original purpose of the prison and only look at their own financial statements. Their approach is undoubtedly contrary to the original purpose of the prison.
I don't think that's something a healthy society should tolerate. Prisons should be places where the well-being of prisoners is concerned and helps them reintegrate into society, not just a tool to make money. The government should also strengthen its regulation and not allow these private companies to act recklessly.
Only in this way can our judicial system truly play its due role and safeguard social fairness and justice. Otherwise, these deteriorating prisons will only create more social problems and contradictions. This is an important issue that deserves deep consideration by the whole of society.
