About the Author

If you've found your way to my blog, hopefully you hate CCA (Corrections Corporation of America) and the rest of the private prison industry as much as I do. There are myriad reasons why I hate CCA, the GEO Group, MTC, and anyone else who strives to make a profit from the incarceration of human beings. You will hear all about them, I assure you. So check back often to see why I do, and you should, hate CCA and their ilk.
