California Gov. Gavin Newsom proposes slashing millions from 'public safety' as the Democratic state grapples with a massive budget deficit totaling $37.9 billion.
Hahaha I know the 8% figure you’re talking about and it’s not that.
No you don’t. As you are wrong once again. The total prison population of private prisons is 8%.
Private for-profit prisons incarcerated 90,873 American residents in 2022, representing 8% of the total state and federal prison population. Since 2000, the number of people housed in private prisons has increased 5%.

Hahaa you just confirmed I was right.
Now break it down by state. Your previous Florida is up to 14%, a 200% increase in the same time frame.
In fact, most the states with the highest stats are red states.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
No, the article very clearly shows you are wrong.
You said the majority of prisoners were going to private prisons. That is false.
Going, not are. The number is growing and in many states it’s hitting a majority.
You are confusing an upward trend for a static figure.
