You realize that this can happen to your uncle Cletus and not just illegal immigrants, right? Lol I’m going to assume not, based on your answer. I’m sorry that your parents, yourself, and your school district failed to educate you - there’s still information out here though, just look around. Ask for help if you need to, there’s lots of adults around.

I’ve been to prison and to be honest… When you have a job in there that pays usually 60 to 70 cents an hour, it’s so much better than sitting on your ass and calling your friends/family asking for a handout…It sounds crazy, but after a while you literally crave a purpose/job.

A purpose != a job. Capitalism has tried to equate the two, but it is incorrect

I’m going to break it down into easier concepts. You get bored out of your god damn skull and you want to do anything to pass the time and get out of your cell.

I definitely understand that and I’ve seen that sentiment over and over in news/documentaries about such topics. People like to be busy, work, have meaning, purpose. Activate the mind, pass time. It does not mean that the people should be exploited even if it’s beneficial to them.

I have spent just several days in jail and I know that time. fuckin. crawls.
