RE: Free at Last (Fiction)

Of course, he wouldn't need cash where he was going. Or would he? Does cash help you in jail?

I do not know about this in other countries, but in my country (in Hungary), prisoners/people in jail are actually living for free. They do not have to pay rent/bills, nor buying food. They receive all of it for free. Including a constant pleasant temperature. The sad reality is the fact that they live a better life than most of us. They are not struggling to pay rent/bills, nor to buy food, neither to choose between these two. They also do not need to worry about becoming homeless. They get everything they need. And as I currently know, prisons/jails are maintained by the money provided by the tax payer people.

This is as if the government would say that "it is worth to commit a crime. You will have a better life".

Unfortunately this is not a fiction, but the actual sad reality in my country (in Hungary). Sad, but true.

Have a nice day. All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
