Standing still for too long? Go to jail for loitering.

Crossing the street? Go to jail for jaywalking?

Existing next to a cop? Arrested for resisting arrest, straight to jail.

Have any money on you? Money is arrested for looking suspicious.

I remember talk about banning for profit prisons about a decade or so ago. It didn’t last long. This is one of the things we should be fighting tooth and nail for. Locking people in cages so the rich can get richer is disgusting.

Even before you get to lobbying to criminalize things that shouldn’t be crimes, the fact that anyone pretends to expect for-profit prisons to rehabilitate any criminal is so idiotic.
