Comment on Why don't county jails open up their free bed space in times of severe cold and severe heat to the homeless and others and just give them their own cell? And can leave whenever.

idk about your county jail but I’m pretty sure ours is either full, privatized in some way, or both.

There’s no way a for-profit prison is giving away real estate for free. Instead they’ll attempt to incentivize sending more people prison so they keep their cells full and are able to achieve that coveted capitalist “growth”.
