US homeless/disabled carceral coercion up
Several states are pushing to lock people up for the "mental illness"
of having
difficulty
earning enough money for expensive US cities. This must be a
handy way of dealing with the inconvenience of other people's
homelessness.
RFK Jr is proposing to force obese people into "wellness farms",
likewise a form of imprisonment.
This is part of a broader push to replace expensive medical treatment for
non-wealthy Americans with work-till-you-drop prisons.
