A modest capitalist detention proposal

I can’t stop with the Latino detention centers! So let me get this right. Somewhere out there is a corporate board member who is just ecstatic when he discovers a way to take an extra penny from an innocent child every day. CEOs, congressmen, maybe even our president will cheer as well. What happened to “As you do unto the least of thee you do unto me”? Yes even the parents who bring these poor kids across the continent are innocent until proven guilty.

What if I have a way to be a good capitalist, god-fearing, and humane? I have room for about four bunks and a family of three on the fold out. Give me what the detention centers make for these people. Let’s see California boycott that! The children can bath as often and as long as they want – in fact I insist. As harsh as it may seem I am certain that, if given the option, most of the detained would prefer my offer over jail. Welcome to the USA, my friends.
