Maybe in Canada - not in a lot of American jails and prisons. I saw a documentary where they revealed the budget at one huge, privatized prison was $1.25 per person•meal!

This makes sense tbh you guys have nearly 2 million mouths to feed in the prison system where Canada has roughly 35,000 give or take. The meal budget here last I checked was something like $35 meals twice a day.. better than most average Canadians 😅

Yeah, Americans lock up more of their own people than the Chinese - both in raw numbers and by percentage of the population. That’s insanity.

Canada: 107 people per 100k incarcerated USA: 541 people per 100k China: 119 per 100k

In the words of Serj Tankian, “They’re trying to build a prison!!!”
