Longview OR, just outside of Portland, has instituted a fine of $1000.00 for violating the new "street camping" ordinance.
Common sense might suggest if the "street campers" had $1000.00, then they probably would NOT be "street camping" in the first place.
So, inevitably, when the "street campers" cannot pay the fine, they are sent to a privately owned corporate prison. Here they work for $0.25 an hour with profit from their labor going to the corporation. And the cherry on top? They are housed at a rate of $40,000.00 per year expense to the taxpayers.
'Ay bugger off. Don't look at us. We belong to an anarcho-syndicalist-collective. |
