Prison

Oh, my! When DocBrain grew up, prisons were not good places to be. Prisoners were bad people who deserved to be there. They sometimes hurt each other. They sometimes loved each other, but not in a good way. Prison guards were sometimes brutal. Mom and Dad told DocBrain to be good so that he didn't wind up in prison where bad things happened.

It seems now that prisons are areas where good people, in expressing their own individuality, acted in ways not appreciated by the oppressive majority, are given "time out" to reconsider their lives and methods to avoid detection by the majority appointed gestapo in the future, should they decide to continue their own quirky individualistic ways.

Prisons apparently should be a mix of college and country club. Good food, healthy exercise, entertainment from TV and movies to live concerts, primo health care (including organ transplants, if needed), and conjugal visits. Of course, telephone, internet access and libraries should be freely available. Ideally, you will have a private room and ability to interact with your fellow prisoners in a safe and controlled environment.

Modern prisons are sort of like upscale retirement communities.

Being bad has never been so good.
