    Thats currently already done with jail. The main problem is homeless people don’t pay their jail bills. In my state 15 years ago it was 30$ per day you had to pay to be incarcerated in jail, not prison.

      Okay america is sounding more and more like a joke. You have to pay to be in a processing facility? When you have no choice. And you’ll be incarcerated there during trial so before you are proven guilty of anything.

        Fun fact! The Constitutional amendment that outlawed slavery also legalized slavery!

        Yeah! And until right now, this very minute, as you’re reading this, some Americans didn’t know that.
