    Corrections Corporation of America own 8 prisons in TX and manages 5 more. They basically make their profits by cutting wages to their employes, not training their employes, and refusing medical treatment to their inmates while matching cost per inmate to what it cost the state. What they do would be better served by state run prisons. They only exist because of their lobbying efforts and offer no advantages to their client states.

      In prison there should be no gangs, no drugs, less freedoms, no weapons...etc..etc.
      Good luck with that. TX can't even keep smuggled cell phones out of death row and it isn't from a lack of trying.

        I believe it could be done, but "prison rights" would be reduced and things would get hard on the prisoners. Also, we would need to remove the corruption out of the guard ranks.

          The amount of man power required would cost too much. Prisons run by convincing the inmates to comply with the system and by giving them something to lose if they don't comply. If every inmate said "Fuck you" there would be no prisons or a dramatic shift in who we are willing to spend the money on to keep locked up.

            Spent all my extra time on another thread this morning, but I'll continue my side of the debate later.

            I certainly think we should pick and choose our battles on that though.
