our government provides for prison and jail inmates better then for the many homeless ppl that have sometimes done nothing wrong to end up where they are? Seriously, if you think about it, ppl serving time for anything from rape, murder, drug trafficing, down to misdemeaners are taken better care of then average citizens that need help. Inmates are provided with food, clothing, medical care, education, and all sorts of crap they don't deserve. The government even provides them with clothing and mattresses that are more fireresistant than ones we can purchase in stores! Does that seem f*cked up or what?

What do you suggest...that the inmates be released and prisons made available for the homeless?

You are right. I think anyone serving time should be introduced to slave labor. If our taxes pay for all this crap I better see some inmates out there fixing the pothole in my street, picking up litter building roads or something. In no way should we let these people just sit on their ***.

w3rd bro. it is F'd up. Here in Canada we just let them all go within a few years. not sure which one is better. It seems at least we give more help/opportunities to the less fortunate who are homeless and below the pov. line.

It's very disturbing to me. A nation is not judged by the number of wealthy people who live in it, but by how the poor and the sick are treated.

Yes very disturbing. We are trying to take care of people not in our country and giving illegal immigrants our hard eared Social Security and health benefits and we don't take care of our own people in our country first.
