The Perverse Incentives of Private Prisons - SOME MORE NEWS 

Checks out, seems legit. Here's your contract.

This is unironically what people do with pit bulls. Then they blame it on the dogs genetics (which they also do with black people...)

This is a good analogy

I was taught that we should be grateful for it because it was a very, very tough choice that made poor old Lincoln feel bad and that it's simply asking for too much to demand for more. Cuz bargaining with slaveowners is just what a Freedom Liberty Justice Democracy does, apparently.

@@guy-sl3kr what was that comic where you have civil rights protestors on one side and the KKK on the other with a "centrist" in the middle asking "can't we compromise?"

Wait you actually were told about the exception in school? I learned about it way into adulthood

“Also, we’re not going to have slaves anymore. Pinky promise.*”

Agree with Wizard, they ignored the exception and just said slavery over, as if we couldn't read the entire thing ourselves...

Salute, fellow survivor! Still get horrendous nightmares to this day from that shitshow...

Jesus so you had no way to get to school so they send you to a prison with no school. That is. Jesus I'm so sorry that happened to you.

@@morgantrias3103sounds abt right. “Youre too poor to exist in our society? Okay how abt you get tortured for it” instead of “how can we help this person succeed in a society we built”

lobbying. they still exist because of lobbying.

Not in the US. Nothing is hard to believe there PS- for a lot of countries for-profit healthcare sound like such a terrible idea that it is hard to believe it exists

for-profit economic systems seem like such an obviously terrible idea that it is hard to believe that capitalism is still allowed to exist 🤪

As a foreigner it is absurd that they were ever allowed in the first place. If you wouldn't outsource your police force then why do that with prisons? Wouldn't a country that once fought the Brits have some realisation that not everyone who ends up in prison deserves to be there? Or that it is insane to outsource government functions like the Fire department, Police or Prisons?

Outside of a bunch of Free Market nuts passing this legislation in secret I really cannot fathom how it could have happened. Core government functions will always be a not-for-profit activity performed by the government.

I would add housing to that. Edit: not necessarily talking about builders (although them too if they make big profit margins for no reason), its more about landlords.

Who would be so immoral to do both?!? That's easy: *The corporate American oligarchy.*

Maybe you should add an education to the list

Anything that would help maintain human life?

say that to any child who had been molested or someone whos family was killed fuck prisoners they need to be punished they broke the law, why should they be given a slap on the wrist.

I think we should question the idea that people who commit crimes do need to be punished.

@@cartoonhippie6610 I'll bet if we interrogated it, you would agree that at least some people who commit crimes/injustices should be punished - you just might disagree about which crimes deserve punishment.

@@Rolepgeek You would lose that bet. I don't think any actions taken in reaction to a crime should be punitive in nature.

I've followed Aeromark for awhile... dunno if they run prisons, but I know they use their labor and provide 'services' for prisons. Pure evil.

Why are "people" allowed into the discussion? A panel on prison reforms comprised of persons having a background in law and social work should be making such decisions, shouldn't they? You wouldn't expect public opinion to overrule an Engineer's opinion when it comes to constructing a dam or a bridge. I had a paper on Criminology and Penology last semester and as fucked as my country is boy am I glad we don't leave these decisions to the people.

But that would be very bad for business and that is the main thing. Merica! &Pals..

@@grid462 Business is one thing but have you talked to the average Joe? Rehabilitation doesn't even come close to a concern, it's "justice", meaning getting even or made an example of no matter the cost. As long as that base instinct is allowed to be placated by policy there is no hope for reform. This is why it should be left to experts in law, ethics, and social sciences to determine how the system operates.

As a member of the DOC, I agree 1000000000000000000000000% (state prison, wouldnt catch me dead working in a for profit prison) Luckily I'm not alone. Prison reform feels attainable.

It costs a lot of money to be free, though. You're fucked if you're poor.

New Mexico had a couple of for profit prisons, and then decided that's a terrible idea and the state took them over. Our state pushes hard on for profit prisons to not be terrible.

Only 2% are for profit. It should be none but this notion is over told

I have firsthand experience with the "justice" / prison systems' corruption. Hell, I wrote a damn book [Rebel Hell] about going to prison and how broken and racist it all is.

What's more, the people impacted have no recourse for their sentence rendered- beyond maybe leaving a one star review- because felony offenders cannot vote. Can we imagine why having the highest prison populations in the world might be impacting our policies?

They still almost got away with it even after being caught and publicly exposed because that's how bad the corruption is. And as was mentioned the corporations got a slap on the wrist so essentially they just punished the people who got caught and let everything continue functioning as it was

@@kylezo even though they got caught they still fucked people's lives up.

One interesting fact about the kids for cash scandal. Is that the rich backers of the judge knew they were caught.

Agree that the neoslavery episode was really good but at the end of the day it's just leftist masturbation. The right absolutely does not care about fraud, hypocrisy, corruption, etc. It changes zero minds to expose it. Centrists and moderates continue to not care and do nothing and conservatives continue to do a fascism every single day

Idk, in real life there’s no way that a purge would actually prevent crime on any other day of the year, since that’s not how humans work. So I think the prison system would do just fine if the purge were real, maybe they would even do better because of all the crime that would result from the societal setbacks of having a purge in the first place. So I disagree, I think the Purge would fit quite nicely into the dystopian hellscape we are moving toward. Lol

Businesses exploiting cheap prison slave labour is the core of the problem; prisons should be nationalised, and prisoners should be encouraged to find work, but they should also be paid the same wages that any other worker would. There should probably also be a 'prisoner tax' applied to their wages to help fund the upkeep of prisons, but that should be applied after the prisoners have already been paid fair wages by their employers

Not to mention Guiliani's Civil Emergency Center which he had built for $100 million dollars, and designed to withstand a direct nuclear blast, and complete with it's own *Air Traffic Control* Center. Then there's Pentagon Comptroller Rabbi Dov Zakheim who lost the $4 Trillion dollars, and whose company CPS rolled out remote hijack tech in the AA Fleet in June 2001. It was also Dov Zakheim that Edward Snowden worked for at Booz Allen Hamilton. Kushner's father Charles was on the Port Authority Board that gave Lucky Larry his $100,000 purchase on the twin towers, which had an asbestos removal bill estimated at around $1.2 billion dollars. He sure did well didn't he, maybe he got the Odigo warning hours before like Lucky Larry. To date the US govt has provided no evidence linking Bin Laden to 911, no one has faced trial, no investigations into the farcical reports that say fire collapsed 3 intact skyscrapers, or the countless reports amd evidence of demolition charges. And you'll never guess who was in charge of the renovations done to the elevator shafts in the months leading up to that day, where workers complained about copious amounts of dust coming from air vents into offices. Or the Israeli "Arts groups" _Gelatin_ and _B Thing_ who infiltrated countless FBI and Security installations across the country, and later photographed with hundreds of boxes of electrical fuses inside the Towers, and who removed a window to erect a platform, which a helicopter then flew towards on the exact same trajectories as the first and second planes. On the day VHS recorders captured a laser target drifting across the face of the South Tower moments before and after the second plane hit. A white Command and Control plane was also captured flying high above moments before and after the impacts. Oh, and the man in charge of security at the WTC? Marvin Bush. Bush was using 911 to blackmail Iraq as early as 2000, as per CIA whistle-blower Susan Landauer, whose videos are on YT, and who almost got ten years under the Patriot act when she revealed this information. There has also never been any empirical evidence provided for the invasions of Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Sudan, Egypt, or Ethiopia, all countries bordering either Iran or Palestine. All these countries had also turned down major oil pipeline projects, and the Bin Laden family Construction firm handles the Pipelines being built through isis occupied Syria, whose Stolen Hieghts Trump ceded to israel on israel's 70th anniversary, and also where israel treated Isis soldiers from the Syrian Conflict. Bill Mayer even went over and shook their hands. The Stolen Heights, are also home to Genie Oil, a reference to Solomon's Temple on the board sits Bill Richardson, Texas Senator, and Epstein associate, who gave Elon Musk Billions in Tax subsidies. Also Dick Cheney, Sec Def under Bush, Larry Summers, US Treasurer under Clinton, Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox etc, Jakob RothschiId, Micheal Steinhardt, and James Woolsey, ex Director of the CIA. _“For decades, Michael Steinhardt displayed a rapacious appetite for plundered artifacts without concern for the legality of his actions, the legitimacy of the pieces he bought and sold, or the grievous cultural damage he wrought across the globe,” said District Attorney Vance. “His pursuit of ‘new’ additions to showcase and sell knew no geographic or moral boundaries, as reflected in the sprawling underworld of antiquities traffickers, *crime bosses, money launderers* and tomb raiders he relied upon to expand his collection." _ Not to mention the mossad hijack expert accidentally named as a hijacker, based on the seat number given by a hostess during one of the impossible phone calls, probably intentionally. But sure, "foreign terrorists" Anyway, who needs evidence before genociding millions of innocent people for their perceived beliefs anyway. It was also a Democrat controlled senate that went to war with Iraq, 76% of the country agreed. Once that call was made, the rest was academic. *_"you're either with us, or you're with the terrorists"_ GW Poppy Bush Jr, who was being investigated for cocaine trafficking when his Daddy won the Presidency, the charges were quashed.

@@RadioGaGago, thanks, will watch

Bit this is only the prelude. There are three whole more parts!

Again, like I've been saying- John Oliver IS American. He's an American citizen and he covers American issues. Just because he has an accent, you can't call him British.

@@hittingyouoverthehead as if he doesn't regularly refer to himself as British lmao

@@mantistoboggan1503 Yeah but when you say "American version of John Oliver", it implies that John Oliver does the same thing that Cody does but for England and that's not true. He just has an accent and that's the only thing that makes him British. They're both covering the same material. This is like if some white American became famous for Martial Arts and we called them "American Jackie Chan" but Jackie Chan is just as American as the other guy so that makes no sense.

However they all lack in any kind of real rehabilitation . State yards pu ish you for not having a job even when their aren't enough to go around. They can work you for 40+ hours a week for $10 a month using inmate labor to run the yard. Inmates do the laundry, handle all receiving packages , make the clothes, cook the food, do all the cleaning, even make the mattresses, etc. We are punished if we don't do this, all to save the state money so they can fill more beds with inmates , which trickles down to more people flowing in from county jails which means more convictions which means more arrests . it's a whole complex .

On a side note I can't help wonder if certain "other" countries having smaller prison populations. Are a result of under reporting their numbers, or genocide in those countries.

@@argontreper8524 I dunno man, the imprisonment rate in the US is what, 0.6 - 0.7%? That's sort of insane. For comparison the UK is below 0.1%. Even with 4 times the population of the US, China could have less total prisoners than the US while still imprisoning people at a significantly higher rate than the UK.

Trying to reform people in an environment(prison) entirely unlike the environment in which you "hope" to return them to is insane. Just as insane as making incarnation a for profit business model. I believe I have as perfect of a solution as possible for prison reform. After, and only after fixing the broken legal system. With laws that actually make reasonable sense of course. Example-Person come from a poor background, with little opportunity for change their situation either socially or economically. Person discovers the profitability of illegal drug trades. To provide for their self and potentially loved ones. They commit to becoming a small businessowner, in the supply and logistics aspect of supply and demand market capitalism. They make a lot of money over time, as demand is high for mind/mood altering substances. Substances used to cope with labor demands, mental illness, depression, anxiety, and a sense of hopeless in general felt by broke & poor people. Sadly the "over time" period varies greatly for these small businessowners, as their business is illegal to practice. Due to some people not being able to function properly. After long-term use on some products sold in this manner. Some people even die because of poor quality control on these products. As we all know, the Capitalist are most concerned with ensuring products are as safe as possible for consumers. Also the need to make contact with customer base, makes anonymity virtually impossible for all but high end suppliers. High end suppliers like the C.I.A. in some cases. So the take away from this very broad example would be. Lock up capitalist entrepreneurs, taking advantage of what few opportunities they have. People who, had they been born into wealth, would be "legitimate" business owners hoarding personal wealth. Safely providing for their self and loved one. End of Example. Step 1 If as a society, we deem it necessary to steal people's lives from them. By locking them away from where they come from. Preventing them from being able to provide in a meaningful way for any dependents they may have. We as a society owe it to those dependents. To provide full support in the hardship placed on them. By our need to reform their caregiver, so we don't perpetuate the poverty. Their caregiver was trying to pull them out of. Also by taking care of the families of people deemed in need of reform. We empower citizens in need of reform(CNR's for short) to focus on rehabilitation of behavior deemed incompatible for society. This first step is critical and if I need to explain why, the point will likely be lost on you. However feel free inquiry, as I love discussing just about everything. Even when it is often a waste of my time. Lucky for me though, I am what is considered impoverished. So time is my mainstample commodity. Step 2 We as a society have to decide how much we are willing to pay. For the purpose of reforming CNR. We could build modern isolated enclosed communities. For the purpose of providing a safe environment. Where personal health, mental and physical, can be examined and improved. Where educational learning and skill training are free. To allow betterment of ones self. Side note -CNR could largely be avoided by implementing these opportunities to society as a whole. Without the need for isolated and enclosed communities. Now if you feel that the cost of the full dependent support system is to expensive. Which when compared to the alternative, it isn't. Happy to elaborate if needed, only if asked. We can move to the next step in my next step in the my "as close to perfect, as possible" solution for incarceration. Step 3 Forcing people to work jobs in order to lessen cost is wrong. As is pimping people out as cheap labor. So the only expectation on CNR should be self improvement. So now I move on to people that society sees fit to cast as life long inmates(LLI 's for short). They still would go closed off isolated community. Just not a modern day styled community. An Amish style of living would serve these individuals well. Also the initial cost of these communities would be much cheaper. Predominantly self-sustaining after initial setup. There are details to hammer out on this style of community. Yet again, if asked. I would love to discuss in more depth, this ideal I have. Society as a whole would have to build a new justice system, to implement this model for Corrections of incarcerated individuals. Determine what crimes and the severity of those crimes would determine your prisoners status as a CNR or a LLI. If one would be able to move from LLI status to CNR. If a LLI had the right to choose the death penalty, rather than positioned to learn self reliance & encourage to be a cooperative with their peers. I'm interested in feedback on this ideal, to reform the American penal system.

@@karl0ssus1 I understand what you mean. However my point is more so that in America. We manufacture & collect our "criminals" in prisons. Like they were in fact a collectible. The U.S. does have the death penalty, but aren't killing inmates. As fast as they are manufactured. In other countries, if instead of mass genocide, if those people were incarcerated instead and accurately accounted for. How would the their number stack up against the U.S. number. That being said, if I was given life in prison. I'd ask for the death penalty.

@@argontreper8524 As someone from the rest of the world, it is not a result of under reported numbers. Our numbers are accurate for the most part, with the exception of extreme examples like North Korea. What causes the US to have way more people in prison than the rest of the world is a genuine systematic issue in your country. 1. Cops are poorly trained, but given a lot of (in my opinion too much) power. 2. Increased efforts to arrest people for small time crimes - e.g. war on drugs. 3. Private prisons. Just these 3 issues have massive ramifications on prison population that a lot of other countries don't have. And that is not even an in depth response. To be honest, and as hard as it may be to hear for someone from the states, even many third world countries are better in this regard than the US.

I watched the whole 30 seconds off it!! I hope he never utters that name again.

FR, they site their sources in nearly everything other than the shit i've seen from conservative channels.

This channel makes me drink alone. Newsface is getting off on making us sad in this most fun and entertaining manner. The pervert.

I don't acknowledge people that don't watch SomeMoreNews. That way, in my mind, everybody Does watch it

Agreed!

Shouldn't you be telling this to people who are not watching this video?

Which one?

Freedom From Religion Foundation needs to be contacted. That's an egregious violation.

@@JosephKano I thought so too. At the time I was dealing with things that were much more important and that needed my immediate attention but I’ve never forgotten being told that I was only allowed to drop a bible off. I was literally speechless.

I hope things are going better for you and that you never have to experience that again.

I'm not sure if its technically a prison or a holding center, but the prison in downtown St Louis had a riot last year. I thought it was funny because they weren't even trying to escape. They were rioting because the jail wasn't heated, there were no blankets, and prisoners who had covid were just being left to die in their cells with no medical treatment. They later rioted again because they weren't being given court dates. Apperently many were sent to the "workhouse". A medium security prison famous for human rights abuses.

I like " *terms and conditions apply" or use finger quotes.

Yeah, that will probably change soon. They like to change up the name to keep the public confused.

Why lock up a trespasser if you can just shoot them?

He's human? I thought he was a Glurbekrein from the 56th solar system of the Narflian empire.

My dad carried sooo much water for George W. Bush, Trump made him a vote blue no matter who. This country is sick, when *real* conservatives now vote for Democrats.

@@AsherBunnyman Yep! The Democrats are, for the most part, a right-of-center political party, who would be considered relatively conservative in most any other nation that actually has organized left-wing parties. Yet we still have to hear far-right Republicans call them "commie" "socialist" "extremist" "leftist" "radical" blah blah blah blah blah... it's absolutely infuriating! I _wish_ Dems were 1/1,000th as radical as the GOP say they are.
