And the fact that you conveniently left out the other 2 groups at the focus of the article, legal permanent residents and political asylum seekers, did not go unnoticed. It's not a coincidence that 0.77% (and growing) of the US population is behind bars at any given time, while national crime rates have been in a steady decline for the past decade or so. The increasingly powerful prison system and police unions cannot continue to get rich without manipulating the opinions of the self-righteous mainstream fools, and it's so funny to see how quickly people play right into their hands. You are the perfect example. Or, perhaps I'm underestimating you. Maybe you are one of the blood sucking social parasites that's doing the manipulating. It doesn't bother you to spend over $50 billion per year--or the $78 mil. cited in the article--to incarcerate people? Hmm, but you have a problem with the possibility of taxpayers throwing some peanuts to help represent these people. It's clear where your priorities lye.

American taxpayers already put out too much money for illegals and welfare for their anchor babies, so we absolutely should not pay for lawyers for them. If they followed our laws and did not enter our country illegally, then they wouldn't be in a detention center in the first place.

Even if one does not ask or pretends not to see the rope and the flashing red flag draped around the philosophical question standing solemnly at attention in the middle of the room, it remains apparent that the mere presence of a private “for profit” driven prison business in our country undermines the U.S Constitution and subsequently the credibility of the American criminal justice system.

There is urgent need for the good people of this country to emerge from the shadows of indifference, apathy, cynicism, fear, and those other dark places that we migrate to when we are overwhelmed by frustration and the loss of hope.
My hope is that you will support the National Public Service Council to Abolish Private Prisons (NPSCTAPP) with a show of solidarity by signing “The Single Voice Petition”
