Sounds to me like they didn't need to be in prison in the first place. Promptly released upon being realized to be a liability rather than an income generating asset.
- hatenberg 7y agoThat is exactly what is going on. The idea of having to pay for treatment and care is driving this, not any humanitarian or security consideration. None of them of course will have healthcare coverage...
- scotty79 7y agoThis pandemic shows true nature of so many things. I especially like how it shown that main purpose of schools is not the education but preventing kids from being a burden for their parents.
- foxyv 7y agoMy experience with High School was that it was a daycare center with a focus on forcing conformity. I learned nearly nothing in the actual school aside from maybe a bit of math I could have picked up through online classes. I think it was mostly a taste of what it would feel like to be in prison. English was mostly trying to teach the illiterate kids how to read 10 years too late while everyone else tried not to die of boredom. History was about how we won WWII with maybe a little nationalism mixed in. PE was okay. Physics was barely recognizable as such. Math was mostly rote learning. Biology was similar.
