    If you were to google 'the economics of prisons in the USA' I think you'd be shocked at the system, especially the privatizing of prisons.

      No, not really. Private prisons, while I don't think are right, are a tiny part of it. I've hung with drug dealers, bootleggers, whoever, all my life and I know for a fact doing crime is worse in an election year. You get caught then and you are fucked.

        So, just because you've "hung with drug dealers, bootleggers, whoever" you think you have a handle on the economics of the criminal justice system?
        Are you really the IGNORANT or just talking out of your ass.
        Everybody from the cop on the street to the executioner owes their job to the number of people who go through the system. Nobody gives two shits WHY they are going through the system or even if they should be going through the system. If the numbers go down then fewer people are needed by the system. So they all inflate the numbers to keep their jobs.

          No, but we can agree that it's often a game.

          Private prisons only make up 6-8% of all.

          Cops only do what they can.

          D.A's and judges are elected and have to make themselves look good.

          I have been in jail a few times and I know what goes on.
