...I love how this sort of thing is called "free market"...same with privatized jails...where do these "private" firms get their money from? Is there anyone out there buying their products or services....I mean beside the federal government?

...they are scams pure and simple...like many other Banana-Republic notions we are now emulating where clever folk figure out how to siphon money from the rest of us, without our consent.......our government, meaning us, pays prisons, and guards and soldiers and all sorts of people who work for US....this new way is to claim government is not efficient, that it "wastes" money, and then in the next breath award these contracts to private people who couldn't earn an actual buck in any other way...and they invariably wind up costing a lot more, not less, and being much less efficient...but hey, they are "private", right?
