In the news…  Some 62-year-old guy from Ohio couldn’t get a job that paid more than minimum wage, and he couldn’t draw Social Security for three more years, so he decided to wait in prison.  I guess he figured he’d have a better lifestyle there.  So he went to a bank, demanded some cash, then handed it to a security guard and waited on the cops to show up.  Isn’t that crazy?  So for stealing $80 for just a minute, he gets three years in prison (because that’s what he was asking for).  I’ve never been to prison, so I don’t know how luxurious it is, but I’m thinking I’d rather stay at home even if I’m poor and eating Ramen Noodles and Macaroni & Cheese and sandwiches.  (I had to live that way during college.)  I could find a way to make enough money to get by…

I understand being lazy and not wanting to work…  But having to work some and then having some free time has to be better than being in prison, right?
