gantrules Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 So, I'm driving in to work this morning and I come across a road crew in Ontario County. Seven men out picking up garbage on the side of the road. Not inmates mind you but states employees each earning more than likely 30-40K per year to pick up garbage. Where are the inmates damn it! Oh, I know watching cable. More wasted tax dollars....makes me sick.

BuckeyeBill Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Demeaning... yeah you are right. Convicts do deserve a better life for killing someone than they did before. No more manual labor, just sit and enjoy their cable, weight-lifting, and occasional congical (sp?) visits. While people work hard to get the 3 square meals a day, can't afford a gym membership, and try to watch their normal TV with 2-3 fuzzy channels. Our system is screwed up.

That doesn't mean they don't exist but I've been to some of the most remote regions in this country and I still see satellite dishes mounted on shacks.

I dont know about you but I kind of like sitting around the house NOT worrying about getting ass pounded or shanked at any given time.
