	Atlanta Federal Prison - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Atlanta Federal Penitentiary was a notorious part of the U.S. federal prison system.
		It housed several inmates best known for other supposed offenses but imprisoned for tax evasion, most notably Al Capone.
		Following its closure as a regular prison, it was used as a detention center for Cuban refugees from the Mariel Boatlift who were found to be actual, rather than political, criminals or who were otherwise ineligible for release into American society.

	BOP: Alcatraz
		The Federal Government had decided to open a maximum-security, minimum-privilege penitentiary to deal with the most incorrigible inmates in Federal prisons, and to show the law-abiding public that the Federal Government was serious about stopping the rampant crime of the 1920s and 1930s.
		Many prisoners actually considered the living conditions (for instance, always one man to a cell) at Alcatraz to be better than other Federal prisons, and several inmates actually requested a transfer to Alcatraz.
		Once prison officials felt a man no longer posed a threat and could follow the rules (usually after an average of five years on Alcatraz), he could then be transferred back to another Federal prison to finish his sentence and be released.

		I was told by a representative of the administration that because of my extensive history of radical activism, and the many years I spent in their worst prisons, I would remain in the hole for months before serious consideration would be given to releasing me into the prison general population.
		There is nothing prison administrators fear more than solidarity among prisoners and a penetrating look at their operations from people outside the walls.

		As early as May 1941, the Atlanta federal penitentiary alone was producing eight to ten train carloads of war materiel per day.
		In California, for example, where prison for-profit work programs are increasingly popular, inmate educational and vocational programs have been cut statewide by almost 20 percent, with a loss of roughly $35 million for prison educational spending and 300 fewer prison teachers.
		By expanding for-profit prison factories, but limiting them to the production of items that would otherwise be produced in foreign sweatshops or prison factories, the US could actually stem the flow of jobs and profits abroad.

		The results of these decisions are prisons filled with large numbers of non-violent and drug offenders (over 50% in both state and federal prisons) at an annual cost of incarceration of $20,000 or more, along with increasing evidence that large-scale incarceration is not the most effective means of achieving public safety.
