The life sentence

I read in the paper last week that six gang members convicted of drug dealing and murder were sentenced to a life of free medical and dental care, three prepared meals each day, free clothing, the freedom to listen to the radio, watch TV, read magazines, books and newspapers, sit and chat with friends and receive visits from family and friends.

They are not required to have a job, pay taxes or utility bills. The only thing they cannot do is take a vacation. All this paid for by taxpayers.

If an individual is found unfit to live the rest of their life in society, they should be executed rather than enjoying life at the taxpayers' expense.
