        'the capitalists will sell the rope we hang them with'. short term profits are never seen as a part of a wider material reality that radicalises people, but just as one individual acting in self interest to get ahead

        Like the other comment said, mass incarceration

        1. Criminalise homelessness
        2. Make more people homeless
        3. Privatise prisons
        4. Profit!

        The end goal is nothing more than that of leeches in a pond. Suck blood from the productive inhavitants of the pond.

        It is not the leeches concern that too many leeches may kill all the fish. None of them individually have the power to affect that.

        They simply have the power to leech. So they leech.

        There is no end goal other than "accumulation". Any other externalities are, as Matt Christmas loves to say, a "YP" not an "MP".

      Accounted for, private prison corporations have been brainstorming this for a while. Think of the possibilities for growth!
