Putting seniors in jail and criminals into nursing homes

Food for thought : Let's put Seniors in jail and Criminals in nursing homes! This way, the seniors would have access to showers, hobbies and walks. They would receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, wheel chairs, etc. They would receive money instead of paying it out. They would have constant video monitoring, so they could be helped instantly if they fell or needed assistance. Bedding would be washed twice a week, all clothing would be ironed and returned to them. A guard would check on them every 20 minutes and bring their meals and snacks to their cell. They would have family visits in a suite built for that purpose. They would have access to a library, weight room, spiritual counseling, pool and education. Simple clothing, shoes, slippers, pajamas and legal aid would be provided free. Private, secure rooms for all with an outdoor exercise yard with gardens. Each senior could have access to a computer, TV, radio and daily phone calls. There would be a board of directors to hear complaints and the guards would have a code of conduct that would be strictly adhered to.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The "Criminals" would get cold food, be left all alone and unsupervised. Lights would be turned off at 8:00 PM and showers would be taken once a week. They would share a tiny room, pay $3500.00 per month and pay for all their clothes, supplies, medical and dental services, and have no hope of ever getting out.

This should make us think of what kind of world we have created for ourselves.
