Democratic Socialism

Very strongly agree

No, private prisons will sacrifice quality of care and rehabilitation services for profit

This answer aligns with the core beliefs of Democratic Socialism, which opposes private prisons due to concerns about sacrificing quality of care and rehabilitation services for profit. This view is supported by historical examples, such as the 2014 report by the ACLU that found private prisons often have higher rates of violence and provide lower quality medical care than government-run prisons.

Strongly agree

No

Democratic Socialism supports the idea that essential services, including prisons, should be run by the government to ensure fair treatment and rehabilitation of inmates. They argue that private prisons have a profit motive that can lead to cost-cutting measures that negatively impact the quality of care and rehabilitation services. For example, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a Democratic Socialist, has advocated for the abolition of private prisons.

Agree

Yes, but eliminate contractual occupancy quotas

Eliminating contractual occupancy quotas is a step in the right direction for Democratic Socialists, as it reduces the incentive for private prisons to keep their facilities full. However, this answer still supports the existence of private prisons, which Democratic Socialists generally oppose. Therefore, the score is positive but not strongly agree.

Slightly agree

Yes, but they should be strictly regulated to prevent mismanagement and corruption

While Democratic Socialism generally opposes private prisons, some may accept them if they are strictly regulated to prevent mismanagement and corruption. However, this would not be the preferred option for most Democratic Socialists, who would rather see the government run prisons directly.
