RE: Stop sending our jobs over seas... OKAY WE'LL STOP... How about the Prison Industrial Complex?

Orange is the New Black on Netflix explores these ideas quite a bit. I will pull a quote from Wikipedia here concerning the plot of Orange is the New Black...

"The show also pays close attention to how instances of corruption, drug smuggling, funding cuts and guard brutality adversely impact not only the prisoners' health and wellbeing, but also the prison's basic ability to fulfil its fundamental responsibilities and ethical obligations as a federal corrections institution.

One of the show's key conflicts involves the prison's Director of Human Activities, Joe Caputo, whose efforts and aims as a Warden constantly conflict with the business interests of the company which owns the prison: MCC."
