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.

All those cultural things are exactly right, it’s hard to argue we wouldn’t have more broken lives and prisoners simply because of all that, apart from anything the prison system is doing or not. But I also reckon that doesn’t mean the prison system isn’t then also out to get repeat business, if that means even more prisons and jobs. It’s not like it would be absolutely shocking, looking around at the general state of things.
