No, I am not. I am talking about the inherent propensity for corruption. This has nothing to do with defining the contract; it has to do with the sin nature of man (including those that work for the justice system). Prisons have historically been a public function, not a private one. The burden of proof as to why this should be privatized is on those seeking to change the status quo. I gave you a clear example of what could (and does) go wrong. There is no real reason to privatize the process (you certainly have not presented one) and every reason to leave it in the hands of the government.
Right, it's the public that demands that certain behaviors are segregated from everyone else, and it's the public that needs to take responsibility for that. Crime being used as an opportunity to enrich the few, hmm what does that remind me of, oh yeah, the mafia and drug cartels!
