Private prisons is a horrible idea...and I bet they aren't even regulated that well. I bet they make the prisoners work as slave labour as well. I only spent a couple of weeks in prison, but it was horrible enough already as a public institution!
Who bets the parole board would also be run by the company? They'd just love to keep people in jail and away from their loved ones, simply because they are making money off other people's misery.
Liberals distrust corporations but trust government
Conservatives distrust government but trust corporations
Anarchists realize that corporations and government are the same thing, therefore neither can be trusted.
