We imprison children

Obviously we need to imprison everyone from birth. Then they will really behave once they are released...
As the result of an unforeseen set of circumstances, a 9 year old Canadian boy and his Iranian parents are being held at the T. Don Hutto Residential Center in Taylor, Texas. The living conditions at the facility resemble those of a prison yet those detained there have no criminal records and are simply asylum seekers. The American Civil Liberties Union is considering a lawsuit for possible human rights violations and several humanitarian groups have been protesting the facility's conditions since it opened in 2006.

The south learned pretty quick there's good money in prisons. The state pays for 'em, and if they don't want to pay, then they are "soft on crime"

Great racket.

I think the prisons are just being tried out to get ready for liberals and Democrats when the neocons consolidate their power....

With the Blackwater army mercenaries?

Maybe with the Christian White Power religious fanatics?

Anyway...prisons are good money.
