RE: Sending Someone to Prison for an Extended Period of Time, Does Nothing To Rehabilitate Them.
I think you hit the nail on the head in regards to the issue of financial incentive to lock people up. However, I think that profit is unlikely to be the driving cause. Consider who pays the prison system. Private prisons are government contractors. If we were the customers, the incentive would be for prisons to rehabilitate. You're also most correct about the current U.S. prison system being an unethical sham.
