Because private for profit prison businesses can make money off them. Public is paying for private profits.

Doubly so since the 13th amendment enshrined slavery as a sole ownership by the state, if found guilty of a crime.

And who's the group who is overpoliced in this country? And who up-thread said to target black women? Yep.

The 13th amendment was terrible. It should have never had an exception for punishment for a crime. Instead, we have a states controlled slave state.
