I've experienced this. I worked for a company that sold software to municipal governments. All that mattered was the Mayor/Town Manager/City Councils opinion. If the reports looked good and the price was right, they were goin

I can't tell if this is a joke, but in case it's in earnest the issue here is the prisoners are typically forced to work at well below market rates. Then usually much of it is withheld on top of that. It also does little to reinte

I doubt you can get concrete data on point one, but it is a commonly repeated trope. At best many people are too okay treating prison abuse as a joke. For the second point, many US Prosecutors are elected. They run on a "tough on crime
