capitalism found it cheaper to outsource US gulags to poor countries
It is more of a way to sidestep the judicial process. The executive branch can act faster than the judicial branch in removing someone from the country before appeals. Once the person is in a foreign country, they are no longer in custody of someone under the control of American judges.
It isn’t a cost saving measure, it is a legal loophole.
This is more of a case where capitalism decays into fascism.
Capitalism relies on a decent legal framework to function. It doesn’t have to be equal, but it has to be consistent. It is usually why a lot of nations defined by capitalism are generally not dictatorships; monied interests are given ways to influence policy.
Fascism concentrates power and frees that power from restraint in order to benefit a part of society. The ability for a person to imprison anyone without legal checks is an extraordinary power.

It’s far more expensive in the long run anyway.
Facists don’t really care. V2 rockets were more expensive and less effective tactically than panzer tanks, but the Naxis built the rockets…
No that was one of the few successes, v2 were ineffective weapons they were however incredibly effective acts of terror.
Good point. But is there any meaningful difference between capitalism and its legal system?
