I called this months ago. I don’t know if it is deliberate planning, or just an inevitable progression once things get started, but “let’s kick out immigrants who are doing vital work” -> shortage of workers -> “let’s have prisoners do it” -> shortage of prisoners -> “let’s create more prisoners” seems absolutely inexorably predictable to me.
It is deliberate planning. There was an understanding of this and shift towards the perceived “expanding markets” you’ve described within the private prison industry. This was towards the middle/end of the Biden administration as they’d already capitalized on Trump term 1 policies that Biden left in place. I’m going to spare myself digging through the market journals right now but if you snoop around you can find it.
Your telling me that wasn’t the intent?
