Obscure disaster-response firms have been angling to profit from the president’s mass deportation plans since before his reelection.
Sounds like a lot of people quit rather than do this:
Disaster relief tends to attract a certain kind of person. Detention work attracts another. Bloomberg Businessweek spoke with multiple people who left disaster-relief companies when they saw the turn they were taking. They asked not to be identified because they signed nondisclosure agreements or fear retaliation. “The idea that we were going to pack these people in cages,” says one. “I couldn’t do it.” Another says they “didn’t want to be designing the systems for internment camps.”
The labor is incidental to the getting paid.
Look at Alligator Alcatraz. They’ve got marsh water leaking into the buildings. The food is all rotten. People are getting sick by the score. There’s barely working sanitation. Folks in there are dehydrated and malnourished, suffering physical and sexual abuse, with no legal reason for their imprisonment or recourse for their release.
Where did that $600M construction contract go? Where is the maintenance budget going? It’s all getting looted, while ICE officials pack more migrants into their concentration camp like sardines.
What else do you expect from a concentration camp?
I’m uninformed about this, do you have any sources handy?
