ICE detainees rely on Access Corrections’ systems — which are experiencing outages — to get money for basic necessities while they’re imprisoned
Buy? They’re being detained, wtf?
welcome to the american prison system
The “for profit” American prison system! You may remember it by its original name “slavery”!
only reason we don’t call it that is because we invented a new, worse, more horrifying version of slavery than anyone else had thought of, and now we call only that slavery. if something isn’t identical to chattel slavery we won’t realize it’s slavery
In bad country they’ll illegally arrest you and force you to buy their shitty 5$ Kiosk sandwiches
Profit should not be made on imprisonment.
This is America.
Nothing but pure unadulterated Freedumb™️

Brought to you by Brando, it’s what detainees crave.
Seriously.
Had a buddy who went to jail, they get paid 1.50 an hour if I recall correctly. It is quite literally slavery and it’s why for profit prisons are such a big industry in the US.
I can second this person’s comment, friend of mine spent time in jail and was paid shit for work. Treated themselves to “fancy” food once every 3 months which was really just like doctoring up microwave ramen at home with maybe some shit you find in a dumpster. It’s a bullshit for-profit system run by profiteering gluttons. It’s capitalism through and through.
Needing to buy things while you are being detained is completely fucked
I genuinely cannot believe it to be true.
someone is arrested, and he is forced to pay to eat? I’m assuming the food is overpriced and shit quality.
you are correct
Private prisons… you get slaves that are forced to pay you for the privilege.
Sue Access Corrections right out of business.
If Americans must live in a dystopian world where a financial private middleman company determines whether some people get to eat or not, then that company and its investors should be personally liable when an issue or mistake on their end causes undue harm.
TIL that the US makes their prisoners pay for their food. I mean, obviously.
It’s just extra food in case you cant survive off the 800 calories of dog food they serve you for free daily.
land of the free, why would should innocent be free or be given free food
