Prisoners are warehoused and not broken into community, and set up to do stuff. Welfare recipients are numbers that get funds, and are hoped to go away. I happened to sit in social services today, applying for foodstamps. A guy says he is thinking of going back to prison because probation hour demands prevent him from working sufficient hours.
The system sucks, end of story here. I don't see compassion here, even if I get handouts. Sheesh, I don't want handouts, I want work.
