Swimmingly. It's working perfectly as intended.  Millions of free laborers, transfer of billion of dollars from citizens to private prisons and prison contractors, poor and working class people (disproportionately POC) kept in their place/disenfranchised both politically and economically. And the cherry on top, those prisoners are even moved out of urban areas to penitentiaries in rural areas, and they're counted as residents there for seat reapportionment.
