I used to think this whole subject was nonsense but then I did come across some evidence.
In the latest US budget, Congress allocated something like 385 million dollars for internment camps.
I cant find a link anywhere for this but I definitely recall reading it at one time a few months back.
Basically the money was going to refurbish former japanese internment camps for FEMA.
I believe FEMA states the camps are in case we are overwhelmed by a massive wave of illegal immigrants. I always felt that was strange as its obvious we are already overrun by immigrants but the camps remain empty and the president keeps stating that its unrealistic to lock up all of them

The term concentration camp lost some of its original meaning after Nazi concentration camps were discovered, and has ever since been understood to refer to a place of mistreatment, starvation, forced labour, and murder. The expression since then has only been used in this extremely pejorative sense; no government or organization has used it to describe its own facilities, using instead terms such as internment camp, resettlement camp, detention facility, etc, regardless of the actual circumstances of the camp, which can vary a great deal.
Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Facilities: Federal prisons, camps, penitentiaries, institutions, or medical centers that detain or incarcerate individuals who have been charged or convicted and sentenced of federal crimes.

This year's contracts include: a $385 million award to Halliburton subsidiary KBR to establish temporary detention and processing capabilities in the event of an emergency influx of immigrants, and a $308 million to $750 million contract with Unisys to continue building, securing and managing the information technology infrastructure for the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration, one of its agencies.
