They didn't sit still. They decided it'd be easier to give up and moved to private immigration detention and private prison services and private parole services and so on.
Total private prison profits are less than 5% of military industrial complex donations to Congress. They aren't comparable.

- chiefalchemist 3y agoThe Prison Industrial Complex is its own complex. It's a beast that roams the world looking for opportunities. To hell with the sociopolitical damage from that. The beast needs to be fed. Recently there was a judge who was being paid off to send more juveniles to a local facility. Let's not be naive. Similar is happening elsewhere. We simply don't know about it. The MIC wrote the blue print and other industries said, "We can do that as well." Whether that's prisons or pharma or...take your picks. Just because The MIC is massive and is the OG doesn't mean these other forces aren't exerting their will. They have more than enough resources (money) to kick greed into high gear. The MIC is proud of its children.
