Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has said private prisons won’t function under his government as he’s planning to ban them.

The Vermont senator has all the needed freedom to do so since, according to his campaign, he has never accepted any funding from prison lobbyists.

That’ would be a mistake. One reform would be to tie financial incentives to recidivism...

Sanders is right. Take the financial incentive out of the prison system—and you law-and-order types do your research before sounding off. People are being forced into poverty and locked up because they can’t pay in order to feed the coffers of the retired judges, cops and prison officials who form the bulk of the for-profit prison industry.

Then let’s discuss the industrialized, federal WOD.
