	TAP: Vol 12, Iss. 16. Bailing Out Private Jails. Judith Greene. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		And like the state legislators before them, members of Congress were madly building new prisons (26 are currently under construction or in the development pipeline), searching for cheap new private-prison beds, and refusing to consider changes in the draconian sentencing laws that were causing most of the increase in prisoners.

		Nine hundred state prisoners would be guaranteed for each of the two largest private prisons (an increase of about 100 for each company) and 30 more prisoners for each of the 10 regional facilities.
