But the money-saving recommendations the consultants came up with made some career ICE workers uncomfortable. They proposed cuts in spending on food for migrants, as well as on medical care and supervision of detainees, according to interviews with people who worked on the project for both ICE and McKinsey and 1,500 pages of documents obtained from the agency after ProPublica filed a lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act.

McKinsey’s team also looked for ways to accelerate the deportation process, provoking worries among some ICE staff members that the recommendations risked short-circuiting due-process protections for migrants fighting removal from the United States. The consultants, three people who worked on the project said, seemed focused solely on cutting costs and speeding up deportations — actions whose success could be measured in numbers — with little acknowledgment that these policies affected thousands of human beings.

This is peak corporate fuckery

“Well it obviously isn’t ideal to have a contractor tell us what we want to ask them to do,” the contracting officer replied. But unless someone from the government could articulate the agency’s objectives, the officer added, “what other option is there?” ICE extended the contract.

How do we refute these free-market fanboys when they bring up Norway, Sweden, and all those regions? They're technically capitalist and have rather free markets.

I guess my response is if that person asking the question thinks that countries like Norway, Sweden, the Nordic Countries in general are well run and if they want the U.S. or whatever country they're from to be run more like the Nordic countries. And then go from there.

Predictable responses of why the US can't have what they do:
"The US is a big country"
"The nordics are more homogenous, ethnically"
