    Wait 30 years of school inequality and now they have a parallel society and a gang problem?

    Surely these things don’t have anything to do with each other.

        But privatised prisons ☝️ Because the market is so efficient and they will create 5 Star Hotels for Prisoners and have Rainbows and Unicorns instead of treating them as shitty as possible and extracting as much profit they can get away with

          Ironically, one of the Scandinavian countries basically does exactly that - it’s prison, but without the risk of assault/death, and without the total lack of amenities.

          Still stuck there, ofc, but not dehumanized as a result.

          Most people dont’ want much - safety, medical care, somewhere tolerable to sit, and something to do makes a world of difference vs the US system. See comparative recidivism rates…
