Even before he was in office, Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) proposed privatizing much of Florida’s prison system, and state House and Senate negotiators agreed to do just that Monday as legislators hammer out a budget. The agreement will move thousands of inmates to prisons run by for-profit companies in an 18-county region in Southern Florida.
this scares me more than many other things..
we're fucked..
the police state is here.. expect our judges to be next in line for the big money donors to start buying off.. before long you'll have teeny-tiny local judges getting millions for their campaign donations.. whereas before, they got just a few thousand.. all to buy justice, in a world where now prisons need to turn a profit.. their profit is literally based on people..that's the only thing that beast can eat..what are they gonna do to feed that need? They'll have to buy judges..
