First it started with fines to be paid for crimes that involved incareration. For those that could pay, they were out of jail. For those that could not, they stayed.

Then it is progressing now that jailees must pay their own room and board, not by working, but having their own families sued for their support.

Does this remind anyone of debtors prisons that out founding fathers fled from?

Question: "Does this remind anyone of debtors prisons that out founding fathers fled from?"

Answer: No, but it does remind me of what is known as injustice. The innocent are being made to pay for the guilty. Many times family members are innocent. This reminds me of the middle ages. In those times when a crime was committed the entire village had to pay.
