I've argued something like this. Education vouchers...but for prisons! Every prisoner gets a voucher. Vouchers are handed to private prisons. Private prisons hand them to the state and get ~ $100/day. Private prisons keep profit ...but prisoners are consumers & pick providers.https://twitter.com/tszzl/status/1222244296541126658 …

potential counterpoint: have to ensure security of prisoners, e.g. can't have them running their criminal organizations from within prison (ofc. in the current system they already do, so this may not make it any /worse/)

Needs something in place to reduce information asymmetry since most people the first time they're arrested aren't going to have a chance to research relative quality and accommodations of respective prisons.
