reb i was in juvi, for over a year... juvi ain't shit compared to even jail... i'd rather die then spend my life in prison so i guess you could agree there...

but grade a medical care? hardly lol... infact i still owe over 3k from w hen i was locked up and had to have my teeth pulled (they're supposed to cover medical expenses that aren't cosmetic... i kept gettin infections... so it was actually medical)

if i hadn't gone to LBJ (not free, but you won't get turned down just cuz you don't have th ecash up front) i'd of either had those teeth still in my mouth, or i'd have to get them pulled just with novacaine...

they didn't pay for the dentures either..

prisons are one of tx's (and a few other states as well) greatest industry... 300 or so bucks a day per head, and with what they supply you, costs all of 30... including shit like the light bulb in your cell and the energy it burns and the water it takes to flush that toilet...)

if everyone just paid the money it costs to keep them locked up you'd be speechless over how fast your taxes dropped...
