We don't clothe, house, medicate, or feed 3 meals to students.

We do to prisoners.

Give our government time...

I am thinking a prison colony on the moon might be a wise investment.

Seriously, where are they going to escape to?



If it were a movie they would take it over and we'd have to send somebody in to retake it.



Bruce Willis would have done it for free back in the 1980s. Not sure who would handle it for free now days.

I have two kids in school.

If the government called and said that until both kids graduate my house payment is free... I wouldn't say no.

ya but none of those things are what costs the money though
i want to puke every time i receive the drugs in.
the gov't pays less for the drugs than my co-pay for prescriptions...and i have GREAT insurance.
plus you dont want your kids eating what they eat!

They could easily do that, and then hand you a tax bill for 10X what it costs you to do it yourself.

But if you closed a prison, some people would bitch because of the lost jobs.
