Wells
Fargo behind for-profit prisons
In
America one out of every 100 citizens is behind bars and most of them
are minorities. The United States has 5 percent of the world's
population but holds one-quarter of the world's prisoners. The prison
industrial complex has a vested interest in keeping people locked up.
Wells Fargo is one of the companies that is profiting for the
practice and pushing for legislation that will maximize their
profits. Russ Baker, editor-in-chief for WhoWhatWhy.com, joins us
with his take on Wells Fargo's role in the prison industrial complex.
