If people want to work then, for God's sake, give them work!

I trained for 2 decades to get work but knew all along that where ever I tried to find work I would not be accepted. I could have made a very good nurse or Legal Secretary or even just a humble mother but even that opportunity was robbed from me. The discrimination is so overwhelming that even the sane could not survive. And everywhere I look I see the toll that persecution reeks on the mentally ill. I am not the only shattered spirit living in fear of the next attack on one's self esteem.

And if giving people work would shrink the crime rate why not give people work. It is ridiculous to give people work inside prisons when we could give people work outside of prison and shrink the crime rate and the number of Victims of Crime.
