I wasn’t aware that was a particularly politically charged example since it’s not currently on either side’s discussion plate.
I do think it’s somewhat relevant with them both being profit motivations that encourage increasingly stricter laws and enforcement. Then again if I’d been able to notice the problem I wouldn’t have put it in there in the first place.
Taking your advice, do you think I should edit it out and remove the example? Or better yet, could anyone think of an example that’s not so politically proximate that illustrates the same effect? I’d image a similar thing would occur in ancient Rome with slaves, or maybe colonial-era governments with indentured servitude, but I’m not quite as familiar with those.
Edit: And thank you for reminding me, I’ve edited.

I’m pretty sure “tough on crime” is associated with the “right wing”.
That said, it might seem better if you just left out “in America”, or replaced it with “in some places”.
