    This sounds crazy.

    I don't know. The biggest problems I see is it is out in a very rural area for these homeless people to transition. They're going to have to find jobs and there are no jobs out. The middle of nowhere. They're going to need transportation. Is this housing facility going to supply transportation into town or wherever there are jobs? Otherwise it's not a transition place. It's a housing place. They said they wanted to put all the homeless people in prison. Well sounds like they're getting their wish. I wish all the best for this company to succeed in helping the homeless. How about trans forming abandoned buildings, hotels, malls into housing facilities that are in a less rural area with public transportation and jobs? Just my thoughts. Again, wish you all the best and trying to help the homeless.

    Why not just keep the facility as is and house illegals in there?

    Let me guess. They will keep the fence around the facility. 😂

    what people seems to have miss was, they had to close the prison, because they didn't have enough people to lock up, so what's the deal with all of this crime, we hear about?

      There are about 30 prisons in Michigan and there's prisons that were built and never opened for whatever reason
