What if we commoditized the homeless as a profit center for government contractors?
But then we complained about how much this was costing the public sector, so we privatized the entire state bureaucracy and billed it out of the public coffers as “National Security”?
And then if you complained about the horrifying abuse of civil liberties, we labeled you an enemy of the state and threw you in jail as well?
I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic but an ancap would only agree with half of this. The difference is instead of the government oppressing you it’d be google or something
But there are “for-profit prisons,” I personally am not sure how that functions, but also the inmates are required to have a job in the prison earning just a few insulting pennies per day, becoming useful to society making license plates or whatever the heck labor they make prisoners do.
Besides the slavery, government also pays them to keep people in prison. Then they can use all that money to lobby for things like weed being illegal so more people go to jail, more immigrant harassment, etc
House them AND guarantee they’ll never get out of the system.
