>these aren't regular prisons where you have like, an address and a way to reach the prisoner. in the new ICE system, you just disappear off the streets and that's it
Well it's a good thing these aren't normal citizens who have like, a social security number and a W2. In their way of life, they just appear on the streets and that's it.

American optimism was between 1991 to 2001. 1991 coincided with the fall of the Berlin wall and the ideological triumph of America over the Soviet Union and the Japanese real-estate crisis that ended their miraculous growth and economic rivalry with America. 2001 was obviously 9/11. In that 10 year period America transcended superpower and became a hyperpower, ever upward, ever excellent, ever optimistic. If you grew up in the early 2000s you'll feel echos of a promised tomorrow that never came. I think the real pessimism of the current era only sank in after Obama failed to be the bandaid to fix everything like some people thought he would be in 2007 and 2008. I still feel it though, that notion that if you're American, you're #1 even as a perpetual outsider immigrant. But it's a phantom feeling, not tactile like it used to be.
