    But american prisons generate more profit for the private sector. So who can really say which system is better?

      The Norwegian justice system is far too lenient. In Norway you can get convicted of murder and be out in just five years and plus those prisons are very expensive to maintain and they all come that the taxpayers expense.

      The one with the least amount of repeat offenders.

        Why would a for-profit business not want repeat customers?

          For-profit prison inmates are more like slaves than customers.

            Excellent point, slave labour can be another revenue stream

            They’re the product.

              How are they the product? Okay, apparently some american prisons make you pay for the privilege of being in a cage, but I believe that using ‘forced labor’ (euphemism for slavery) is their main source of $$$.

          Also most prisons the world over are not for profit businesses.
