Hmm… I wonder why.
Broadly, it’s safe to assume that sentencing kids means the judges get bigger kickbacks from the prison industry. Why though? Do the prison contractors charge the government more for kids? Or do the corporations pay the prisons more for child slaves? Or what?
Because it increases the likelihood they’ll be incarcerated again later in life, increasing prison profits.
Mm… that makes sense.
I knew there had to be something there, and specifically related to the prison-for-profit system and the kickbacks they pay judges, but I couldn’t figure out an angle that made it especially advantageous to imprison kids.
And yeah - that does fit.
To understand New Jersey, you have to imagine the results of someone like Chris Christie running a eugenics program…
