"Even criminals in prison are fed and clothed, he notes...”
^^^ "even" denotes a lesser dignity... this is a poor comparison, but unsurprising when reverting to comparables in personhood.
It isn't perfect, but it's progress! Thanks for reading, Steve!
Thank you for sharing stories. These stories bring me hope.
