ICE Pitches 'Bounty Hunters' as Fiscal Responsibility
ICE, the agency responsible for family separations and detention camps, is now reportedly exploring paying private contractors to hunt down individuals (Newsweek). This isn't innovation; it's a regression to a system where profit motives intersect with the capture of human beings. One might wonder about the 'efficiency' of a system that incentivizes turning neighbors into informants. This move
isn't just about efficiency; it's about externalizing the moral costs and further embedding a for-profit human-tracking infrastructure. The same government that struggles with transparency in its own operations now wants to outsource enforcement to shadowy private entities. What could possibly go wrong when 'due process' is just a suggestion and profit is the prime directive?
