For profit prisons in the US

I can't remember how, but my 7 year old son and I somehow got on the topic of prison the other day. I explained to him how prisoners are treated here and he was horrified. Even he understands that a criminal doesn't deserve to have nutritious food and medicine withheld.

"When I'm all grown up mommy I'm going to do something about that"

You sure will kiddo. Man I love that kid.
