  1. +What Grandma Thinks about it With quotes online anywhere from $30,000 to $40,000 to $50K PLUS! PER INMATE! per year, someone's making a f!@#ng killing and I'm pretty sure it's just like it is in the school system- the upper level administrators and board members get fat paychecks and all the ground soldiers doing most of the work get paid anywhere from alright staff wages, to straight slavery prison wages.  We're talking 10's of millions $ per year at the least for the smallest jail (1000 inmates x 30 or 40 thousand each is 30 or 40 million!), with wages for the prison guards coincidentally being only 30 or 40 thousand a year as well. Most of the profits go to the fewest amount of people. The owners get the lions share. That's why telephone calls are dollars a minute, and inmate wages are spare change. Funny thing is the most state governments work exactly the same way- with our taxes paying for it all. Robbery. Straight. Fucking. Robbery. They even got em on the NYSE, sold as mortgaged backed securities domestically and internationally... And @IronicallyVague. The answer is actually yes and no.  Many cookie jars. It isn't monopolized yet. YET.
