    - "profit is a good thing you losers."

    profit isn't always a good thing what if it's un-ethical to profit off something like the prison system, drug trade, child prostitution, wars, and other blackmarket stuff.

    drug lord: profit is a good thing you losers!

    child sex trafficker: profit is a good thing you losers!

    corrupt businessmen: profit is a good thing you losers!

    war profiteer: profit is a good thing you losers!

    blackmarket dealer: profit is a good thing you losers!

  • provided subpar health care, and let inmates beat each other unconcious or to death without intervening. This has created lawsuits and, in at least one case, a prison riot. Plus private prisons have been found guilty of bribing judges who sentenced "criminals" to lengthy sentences for small infractions because their stock value goes up based on the head-count. I hope your warden shows compassion when your jailed for some small infraction.

  • Talk PRIVATELY one day with a Prison Guard at MOST prisons.  They will tell you Truth... that at least half of those incarcerated are either:

    1. innocent totally 2. did a very minor drug crime and it got puffed up by police 3. are mentally retarded (clinically speaking) and their uncontrolled emotions are systematically used against them. America is in Holocaust. 4th/6th Amendment= Dead.

  • The issue of Native American Indians, We the People have taken their land, cast them out of their homes stashed them in concectration camps, exploited their lands for profits, Punished them for defending their own from goons who succeded in extracting their Uranium, and now their clean water is being poluted from fracking for natural gas. There are many dynamics at work here. Many guards do more drugs than the ones who were unfortunate enough to get caught! Free Leonard Peltier ~Soilent Green~

  • They run Private Mental Health Facitilies too. They hire high-school dropouts who could not even stay in high school. GEO opened a facility in home town Mental Health DIRECTOR was just an LLPC.Ws detained on petty misdomeanor (ws dropped) made me strip all my cloths, put in suicide smock, held me all night freezing. Now they say they Strip searched me! They have no qualifications, are training the next bunch of Gistopos to turn loose on Occupy demonstrators. No one cares until it happens to you.

  • absolutly love it

  • @greenjelly01 You got it right and it is going down hill renumber those crooked Judges in NY.

  • Most Americans just don't care. Out of sight, out of mind. Enforce laws on white middle-class neighborhoods the way they're enforced on low income non-white neighborhoods and you'll see a real change.
