    Jail.

    That’s the answer.

    You’ll sleep in jail. Possibly for the rest of your life.

    Also the cop will beat the shit out of you now for mouthing off.

      and in jail each resident will cost tax payers approximately $80,000.00 per year on average.

        Sure, but it will make a private security contractor and private prison company have great returns for investors!

          Who will pay their bribes to secure a healthy pipeline of human suffering because that’s good for their investors donations to encourage more great policies and responsible governance.

        Yes but then we’re punishing them and letting some corporation buy their labor(not from them, and not in such a way that covers the costs) and pay them in top ramen. Which is morally better, Jesus says so.

      But prison is so much more expensive… Looks at political donations from prison companies Ah - that’ll do it.

      Why bother with representation and good policy when you can have corruption, graft, and all the wonders of late stage capitalism.

      Jail.

      That’s the answer.

      The answer to what question though? If it is what’s presented here in the comic, I.e. “what to do instead of sleeping on the street”, then that’s a remarkably American answer, and requires significant stupidity and/or malice.

      There are much better approaches.

        Yeah we’re not talking about ideals, we’re talking about the present. Stupidity and malice is pretty much it.
