Good idea for a thread - and didn't know where to put this story...
Justice Department Phasing out Private Prisons
Just at the federal level. The mere idea of for profit prisons is enough to make a decent person's skin crawl.

Things That Make Sense
"beautiful, with an exotic-yet-familiar facial structure and an arresting gaze."
Re: Things That Make Sense
This'll be a short thread.
I file this as 'believe it when I see it'. Easy enough for the next president to reverse this policy reversal. CCA stock fell by more than half on the news. They'll have to write a check to Hillary/DNC/CGI, and magically this will disappear next february or so.
But yeah, private prisons are a horrible idea, ranking with private 'charter' schools. And I recently read that CCA (or maybe another big prison contractor) makes a big chunk of their profit on immigration shelters/housing facilities. Crap like this is so routine nowdays, I can't keep up.

Who knows? Maybe, you were kidnapped, tied up, taken away and held for ransom.
