The big business of incarceration comes to the Panhandle town of Graceville this week, as Florida opens what will be its biggest for-profit prison in a competitive system marked by controversy.

''It's epic,'' said City Manager Eugene Adams of the 1,500-inmate institution. It is being dedicated today, and will receive its first inmates Sept. 25, but there's already a 384-bed expansion of the prison on the legislative drawing board.

''It's a life-saver,'' said Mayor Charles Holman. ''It means so much to have all these jobs.''

1. When he said "jobs" he meant "slave labor" correct?

The prisons systems often times destroys the guard's humanity as much as it does the prisoner's.

2. Will merit pay be given to the better employees?

Or will they be deemed 'too costly' and summarily sacked?
