Mass incarceration is big business. This is what happens you privatise something, its sole goal is to make money and guess what makes a private prison money? More inmates. Then you have all of the other people/entities that benefit from a broken system; lawyers, police, judges, bail bonds. The justice system is inherently corrupt. And speaking of private prisons, most of them have occupancy guarantee clauses in their government contracts. I think the problem is even bigger than the New York Times thinks it is. It'll take more than a NYT article to fix the problem.
