If a Person goes into one of these private facilities (they call them "state jails" in states like Texas for instance) they probably get about $38K to $40K (?) for that year for the inmate, from state tax money, if the inmate is released before that year, like for a several month parole violation or whatever, they refill that same bunk in the same year, and get another $40K or so. On top of that, everything in there costs alot as far as prison stay costs of living, charges for medical visits (or they actually have credit accounts they will set up for you, or milk your relatives/ kin), phone calls ... things like junk food commissary, or like Ramen Noddles for a $1.50 or so, cup heating electric elements to heat them or your coffee, slippers, outside work shoes, socks underwear, phone calls at inflated costs, mostly charged to your familia ... the list is endless almost of the money they make in these joints ... I am very familiar with the incarceration gig here in America. <br /><br />Unfortunately I dont believe these folks go to Hell or anyone when they die, so I feel we should impose punishment on them here and now while they are alive, so they can savor the experience.

The way they peddle off this thought to lower classes of people, is that, they can do things cheaper than the government, therefore "savinf your taxes" (of course, it's all a scam) ... they basically market the idea as "Public/ Private Partnerships" (another scam, because the "public HAS NO input, as they would in a peoples elected and governing body). But it isnt just America, they are driving all the worlds so called democracies into austerity, bankruptcy, etc ... the reason why? ... so that we have to "depend" on them as a sort of "economic saviour", then we become in debt to them instead of ourselves more, just like these trade deals, all designed for the same goal. and to make a standard global wage, expectancies, and standard 2 levels of class, this has went on of course thought history, but never with complete global coverage as today ... but I expect them to meet a resistance much greater than they anticipate (much I cant detail or talk about here, being online ... I can get more personal, talking to people offline in other words) ... lot of scams going on though, even the wars are force fed, and terrorists are basically a result of our and neoliberalism's actions, in retaliation to OUR CORPORATE oppression. BTW, Thanx for the Times piece on Trump and this, I havent seen it. I wont shut up if I dont stop dear ... so I'm outta here {:-) ...
