Is it normal to think we should put the elderly in prison?
We should place the elderly in prisons so they will get a shower every day (even in California), video surveillance in case of problems, three meals a day, TV, gym, doctors on-site and free medications if needed.
Put criminals in nursing homes and they'll get cold meals, lights off at 7PM, two showers a week, live in an even smaller room and pay rent at $4000.00 a month!!!
It's pretty sad that we treat prisoners better than the elderly.
