Panama, afaik doesn’t get paid. Just gets continued invasion threats no matter how much they bend over.

El Salvador could double its GDP if they can just keep 1.75M prisoners alive. ($35B/year)

    Is the US checking up on these prisoners to ensure they’re still alive? El Salvador prison reports a life expectancy of 98 years old 🤑

    Don’t worry about the giant dirt mounds in the back of the prison

        I’d worry as a tourist. Can El Salvador get paid for detaining anyone themselves? Isn’t it an anti-American act to go visit El Salvador as a Canadian?

          I’m assuming America is only paying El Salvador for prisoners America sends to El Salvador. They don’t give a shit what El Salvador does to their own domestic prisoners, or America’s, quite frankly.
