Reply to comment by lilsqueakyone in How Hawaii brought its population of girls in prison to zero by AmethystOrator

Most are not for profit, only 8% of the prison population is in a private for profit prison. What keeps the non profit prison growth and demand is private prison guard companies, construction contracts, etc etc. Plenty of people are making money on the prisons that don't exist for profit.

If the facility isn't for profit, but most of the companies running it are private/for profit companies, that's still a for profit prisons in my books.
