I don’t know, I can see your way of thinking from low level prison workers much more easily, I guess.

But if you look prisoners strictly as a way to get more resources, why wouldn’t a high recidivism rate be a good thing? More prisons built, more jobs. It’s like the lumber industry planting trees. I mean, does anything happen to the prison systems that have very high recidivism?

Perhaps you are right. However, I don’t think our country is even close to running out of criminals to fill our prisons and provide participants in the prison/court/industrial complex.With the increasing breakdown of families, high out-of-wedlock births resulting in no fathers in the homes, high unemployment rates leading to a lot of idle hands and crime, high alcohol and drug use impacting DUI rates, not to mention the extremely high rates of crime committed by illegal aliens, our nations’ supply of criminals is at an all time high.
