Jails for Profit … Nov 26th, 2013
By
James Bredin
If the Americans can have jails for profit, why can't we?
Is there some way we could get our politicians to agree?
Why do we call them correctional facilities instead of jails?
Is it our early release system, the good food or our easy bails?
They say that the US jails-for-profit are a lot cheaper than ours,
But such an idea might cause our politicians to cower,
Many Canadian US prisoners want to be transferred here,
There must be something much more to this than there appears.
And is this subject banned and shunned by our politicians?
Without referendums or recall there is nothing can be done,
Can’t have jails for profit and no questions please; so they won.
