Subject: Would homeless people be better off in jail?

"Shall we let the Flood consume our holy city? Turn High Charity into another of their wretched hives? No enemy has ever withstood our might. The Flood, too, shall fail."

-Prophet of Truth.

Just started thinking about all the homeless people who have to brace against winter and survive summer with little to no money..... And honestly it looks like they will have a much better life in jail.....

Free food, free home, a bathroom, people to talk to( or get hurt by), a damn fitness center....

If I was a homeless dude I'd view it was a win-win situation.... I would try to rob a house, bank, whatever, and if I get caught I go to jail (free home) If I don't get caught then free money.... lol.

Thoughts?

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Couldn't we just grind them up and eat them as hamburgers?

I don't want to start another account for a digital number that has no true value in ten years.

But you lose your freedom and a lot of rights being in jail

There are cases where homeless people have tried to rob banks and taken small amounts of money in the hope that they would be sent to prison where they could receive health care. It's sad that you have to see people doing that because they dont see any other alternatives and it really underscores the faults in the way we deal with and perceive homelessness here in America

Yeah it does suck but then again people who own businesses could actually take advantage of some of these homeless people which can also benefit them.... Start em off at a -blam!- pay because they will work for any money, and at the same time you give em new hope for the future.... Even if it means the guy has to work for you for years just to pay rent for an apartment.

Lose your freedom for food, shelter, and water?

Hmm...

The sound of iron shocks is stuck in my head, The thunder of the drums dictates
The rhythm of the falls, the number of dead's the rising of the horns, ahead
From the dawn of time to the end of days I will have to run, away
I want to feel the pain and the bitter taste of the blood on my lips, again

We don't already do that?

If we already do, we need to increase taxes in order to grind up more.

  • 01.03.2013 9:17 PM PDT

I think that all the time. At least they'd have food and shelter

  • 01.03.2013 9:18 PM PDT

I am pretty sure I rather be on the streets then put in a building full of people who would make me their -blam!-.

We could put a tax on hamburgers, so whenever people eat them they're getting poorer and poorer until they lose their home and get ground up.

This cycle will repeat itself until nobody is left.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

They can go to shelters.

I like your thinking. We just need to make sure Mcdonald's serves hobo meat.

If you ever had a job, it supports that, although sales tax fund it more due to it being a whole state thing, and prison are state funded. Kinda like schools.

There's some actual logic there.

Sad reality, that.
