Does Brazil have private prisons that are much better than their public ones?

If not, I don't think you have contradicted his point at all.

There are not too many places that we can look at public vs private institutions for direct comparisons (in the contexts that they operate). Prisons are one, I can think of FedEx/UPS/DHL vs the Post Office as another, and it's difficult for me to come up with much after that.
