Ryan, the Enabler for the GOP majority

Why the GOP want to keep Ryan the agency director and their “Enabler to Profits”

Reason one – he controls the purse strings to spend and allocate where he can do most destruction from within ignoring state buildings but asking more $ for private beds.

Reason two – he can accommodate contractual expectations without oversight and give the impressions we are saving money but in fact spreading the wealth to contractors via the taxpayers

Reason three – he can facilitate the money made on private contracts of prison beds, services, commissary telephone etc making it look like there is less government function. And put money in his political allies’ pockets.

Reason four – he can make more money per capita for the contractors and make it look like public safety and lesser threats of disruptive behaviors by inmates cherry picked for the private prison while endangering his own state run prisons by neglect.

Reason five – has a high concentration of legislators backing him to push corporate influence maintaining capital cash flows and expanding prison growth

Reason six – has decimated personnel rules to serve at will for new employees destroying morale from within while embellishing accomplishments of the private prisons for comparison while intimidating his own employees into silence and compliance or lose their jobs under newly implemented disciplinary process. Short staffing patterns create hazardous work conditions and jeopardize staff safety and inmate safety but most of all ~ public safety

Reason seven – has ensured continued funding and payment of prisoners returning to prison for the private prisons as these are already schooled and not problematic for these contractors to handle through high recidivism rates. An experienced inmate is cheaper to keep and a better profit margin for the private prisons. Recidivism is a tool to keep prisons full for CCA MTC GEO and others willing to do it.

Reason eight – he pays private prisons 100 % bed costs even when empty beds are there due to contractual agreement to pay minimum base for housing inmates without medical or psychological needs.

Reason nine- he controls contract monitors to report favorable conditions from the private sector

Reason ten – he makes society and the majorities, state conservatives feel safe and is tough on criminal ala Joe Arpaio and lets them think we have smaller government.
