It also reminds me of SF’s & Gavin Newsom’s Care not Cash.
Care Not Cash was a San Francisco ballot measure (Proposition N) approved by the voters in November 2002. Primarily sponsored by Gavin Newsom, then a San Francisco supervisor, it was designed to cut the money given in the General Assistance programs to homeless people in exchange for shelters and other forms of services. The major intent of this measure was to prevent the cash grants given to be used for purchasing drugs and alcohol, and to strongly encourage homeless people to enter shelters or housing and obtain counseling and other services.
Now I want to see an analysis of shelters in relation to prisons, and to what extent their “A machine’s purpose is what it does” role is control and surveillance rather than actually helping anyone.

Filling my stomach with counseling and services is a good way to stave off hunger.
