"Bauer’s takeaway is that private prisons like Winn can’t be fixed, that
the profit motive inevitably drives companies to take risks and cut
corners."
It's outright slavery and a dereliction of duty of care by the state for
both the inmates and the staff. Imprisonment, like law enforcement,
should never be privatised because it immediately incentivises
corruption and abuse.
Via Edward Morbius.
