  • in 1998 Georgia ranked number 3 in the states rated highest for amount of private prisons. tinyurl(dot)com/3yes2da

    Here's an Atlanta business journal written in 2010 about the popularity of private prisons. tinyurl(dot)com/28zn7v4

    This is what I expect is the source. Private prisons are forced labour concentration camps. A profit based prison system makes as much sense as a profit based health system - Both of them will cut corners when it comes to prevention.

  • @ReignbowSmite Exactly, I'm working on a video making a case for them getting paid for their labor now. Should be up in a few hours. I also have a followup vid to this one /watch?v=Wed8XM895AQ

  • @Divinity33372 The United States has the highest documented incarceration rate in the world. The U.S. incarceration rate on December 31, 2008 was 754 inmates per 100,000 U.S. residents, or 0.75%. The USA also has the highest total documented prison and jail population in the world. Prison is a business.

  • @ReignbowSmite Exactly, I think they would lose a lot of money if drugs were decriminalized. This goes for prostitution and the womens prisons as well.

  • The prison system is only required to serve two meals a day. some implement a work for food and necessities program. some states have a work gangs as punishment, and if you do not work, is considered a violation of the rules, so you get punished. I don't think the prisons should be privatized, they should be run by the state or feds, and the issue of health care is very disturbing.

  • @Elenkhos I'm going to be going into the reasons I support these people in another video soon.

  • If you can get the white pride knuckleheads to work with the bloods, crips, and every other group, and have them all work without incident... you know the situation is damned serious.

  • Let me get this straight. People are being thrown into jail for smoking a piece of grass that can cure things(or other bullshit perceived as crimes), throw into a cruel system prison system, have them repeat them offenses, and the cycle continues. The denial of food and good working conditions leads me to believe something I did for some time, and that is about the system not giving a fuck about deterring crime. They seem to simply want some kind of cheap labor.

  • Thank you for making this video! Like Public Enemy, my mom and many other people have said..."I don't know what this world is coming to"!

    I am committed to speaking more about the prison industry complex, and the issues that orbit its existence. It absolutely floors me the amount of inhumane treatment we are willing to subject each other to and tolerate! It pains me to witness anyone suffer. I will not submit to allowing myself to be callous and apathetic. You have a good heart. Peace

  • I DID TIME AT 1 OF THEM CAMPS AND I GOT FAMILY AT ALL THE NAMED 1S

  • I really do agree to the protest...

    I never been to prison but jail is just as bad I was released from jail after 8 months of imprisonment.and the condictions were horrible as well with the guards I dealt with and I dont want to go back cause I face 10 years...

  • its horrible how they treat you in there I have been incarcerated numerous times in chatham county jail and its terrible i sat in a holding cell with a brick for a bed for 4 days before they took me to genera population. My girlfriend is currently in lee arendale state prison in alto and she recently wrote me and told me on weekends you only get 2 meals if you dont get commisary then you dont eat pretty much. They work for little to nothing. And shes got 4 years. FREE MY ACE

  • Posted to FB with caption: "My heart goes out to my brothers in prison. He's right - proponents of slavery adapt the rhetoric - when it no longer becomes fashionable to enslave people by race, we expand the definition of criminal and celebrate any level of dehumanization and exploitation. I will NEVER believe that someone is less than human because my GOVERNMENT told me to or because some asshole in suit wrote a law."

  • well then u go eat that shit then. I cant even remember what box of food it was but when they r feeding u something that says on the box NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. I think it was 1 of the lunch meats I worked in the kitchen at Calhoun state prison for 6 months they treat u like shit and they dont feed u worth a fuck!

  • Hey we aint even talkin about the livin area being clean we r going to do that anyway got some that dont unless they told but for the most part everybody keeps the dorm clean all the guards do is bring us the stuff . we r talking about going out everyday cutting grave yards and interstates picking up trash cutting hair for inmates and guards shining there boots or washing cloths its 1 thing if I got to wash my own laundry but when I got to wash 2500 other guys laundry then its a job

  • @ShakedownWar Hey man, fuck u I did 4 years in them gotdamn walls and MOST of them aint even in there for anything serious and they aint lookin for any problems just want to do there time and go home.

    and in 4 year I have seen the guards do just as much if not more wrong than the inmates do! they r always bringin in dope, porn, u nam It seen 4 of them jump on a 70 year old man 1 time because he wasnt moving fast enough, I mean who the fuck does shit like that fuck boys with badges thats who

  • CAN WE PLZ STOP THE WHITE BULLSHIT...ITS FUCKING OLD..

  • You guys dont understand what you are doing at all do you . Having mercy for those who had none for their victoms. You don't even know how they act behind those walls do you ? Well its time for you to know. Its time for the carebears of the world to shut the hell up and use their brains to realize why they US is packed with inmates not for money because we are soft other countries don't put up with this crap. You people make me sick . Look for the vids soon to come .
