Making Money

Prison Making Their Money

     Prisons make their money by keeping facility full with criminals. Theirs a company pledging to keep them 90% full. They will do this by lobbying on capital hill, talking to head political figures to pass laws to put people in jail. By doing this government contracts out companies to detain and maintain people in their custody and pay a per diem rate by how many people they have.

Own and Ran


     Prisons are privately own and operated but are contracted out by the government to take care of prisoners. With a few companies involved the main one is called “CCA” or Correction Coorpation of America.
