        It is a prison and not a holiday resort.

        I read the article besides I’m from the UK and this has been in our media for quite a while. The prisoners are having it way to easy. How do the drugs get inside? It‘s badly run.

        Yes, it’s very badly run. Running it properly wouldn’t make it a holiday resort. What kind of comment was that??

        My comment. I think punishments need to be harder here in the UK. What are people expecting it would be after they commit (serious) crimes? The US is much harsher.

        So your comment really has no connection to this article.

        Private Prison !!? Looks like Guilt ridden west has completely lost it, till about 1900s mid,west was brutal with each other, Indians, Africans, native Americans; now swinging to other extreme ! Don't make prison more lucrative than homelessness. Pvt means profits, any which way!
