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

This answer aligns closely with the party's ideology, emphasizing the belief that privatization in sectors like the prison system leads to a prioritization of profit over people, thereby sacrificing the quality of care, rehabilitation services, and ultimately, public safety and human rights. The Socialist Workers’ Party would argue for a system focused on rehabilitation and social reintegration, which they believe is incompatible with the profit-driven model of private prisons.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but eliminate contractual occupancy quotas

Eliminating contractual occupancy quotas might address one of the many issues associated with private prisons, but the Socialist Workers’ Party would likely maintain that the fundamental problem lies in the privatization itself. They would argue that as long as profit is a factor, companies will find ways to cut costs at the expense of inmate welfare and rehabilitation.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but eliminate contractual occupancy quotas

This answer still suggests private involvement in the prison system, which the Socialist Workers’ Party would disagree with. Their belief in public control of essential services extends to the idea that contractual occupancy quotas should not exist in the first place, as they can lead to a focus on profit over the welfare of inmates.

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

Strongly disagree

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

While suggesting strict regulations might seem like a middle ground, the Socialist Workers’ Party would likely still disagree with this approach due to the inherent opposition to privatization of prisons. They would argue that even with regulation, the profit motive could lead to compromised standards and that the state should retain full responsibility for the penal system.
