We shouldn’t get what prisoners do?

In all these heated discussions lately over the new health care reform bill, one glaring point seems to be ignored.

All these Republicans, Tea-Party activists and countless other so-called defenders of our Constitution sure do not seem to mind that people in prison and jails across this great country get health-care for free. That is what I am confused about.

So they are telling me when we want to give health care to uninsured and law-abiding citizens, it’s wrong? But of course we have a duty to take care of people who are incarcerated and have broken the law. Where is the outrage for that?
