No Food Stamps for Violent Criminals ? Rapture In The Air Now ~

Totally agree.

Convicted Felons already can't find employment and yet we don't want them to commit crime again. The fact is, we all have to eat to live and desire a warm place to sleep. I don't understand why our Gov. (maybe our churches?) doesn't employ (road const. trash removal, state park improvements, etc etc) these people to provide them a way to move out of crime. And I am not a "Gov fixes things" person, far far from it. But seriously, it would be so much less expensive, to instill a work ethic, and provide a way back into society positively, then to house them again within the prison system, plus the myriad complications that crime imposes; emotionally upon it victims, with insurance rates, with destruction of families etc etc etc. We so often think that punishment is "always" the answer....if it was, the penal system would work, and we would be phasing out prisons instead of building more. (remember I said "always"....sometimes punishment is necessary). sigh....come Lord Jesus. It always comes back to WE NEED JESUS doesn't it.
