Investors have witnessed an exodus from the private prison industry
but what is the core function of a private prison ‐ is it to help
prisoners? Is it to help the government? Or is it to help
investors? In act 1, we look at how the growth of the 80s helped
build the prisons of the 2000s (2:55). In act 2, we discuss how
private prisons became interwoven into our society. In act 3, we
discuss the issue of incentives for private prison operators and
what friction is caused by their misalignment (9:42). In act 4, the
final act, we discuss the broader implications for investors that
invest in private sector companies that provide a public service
(28:33), all on record.
