Your brain on for-profit prisons:
Wow China really dropped the ball on this one.
1970 was during the cultural revolution. In that year, the world population was 3.68 billion, and the population if China was just shy of 830 million - China had 22% of the world's population, so if they held (only) 20% of the world's prisoners, they'd have a lower than average incarceration rate.
The same is not true for the US today, we have less than 5% of the world's population today.
