    There will still be some guards, ask anyone with experience with homeless shelters about theft.

    I’ve long said that we can divert basically everything from the prison industrial complex to homeless shelters. The contractors still make the same money, we just replace the bars with doors and give the residents the key. Just shift most of the security budget to social services.

    They have all the infrastructure right there. Clothes, food, housing, security, medical attention. I even think the work for pennies is okay until they clean up enough for a real job, which they can get because they’re free to go whenever. Especially if it includes training.
