So private jails are bad because of one corrupt judge and one corrupt jail?
The issue with jails is that when they are ran by the public they must have Unionized workforce. Then they have limitations on who can bid on other services. This drives the prices up.
bot sure how it's done elsewhere but here they charge you daily for bed, food, and clothing. Not to mention how Aramark over charges for "luxury" items which the county gets their cut plus gets paid by Aramek for the proviledge to sell. Plus they take a daily user fee out of the cantine accounts of the prisoners.
Not to say private wouldn't do some of these things but its easier to write tjings like this into the bidding process when contracting for services.
