Would you rather be in jail or homeless?

I'm bored, so......which would you rather be? Personally, I think homeless because you can get a cardboard box and work your up until you can make like a shack out of boxes and maybe make a homeless community so you could have friends. It actually sounds kind of awesome.

Update:

living for trills - yes, i saw that and i was bored, so i asked this question.

    Jail.

    Imagine a cardboard box in the Winter we last had!

    In jail you have all your meals, you have central heating, you can have study time, medical attention, etc.

    I've visited people in prison on several occasions and it is rarely as portrayed in films designed to shock or pull audiences

    In jail because homeless people truly have it hard living outside in the heat, getting robbed, begging for money, sleeping in the same clothes, it's a pretty dangerous place to be compared to jail

    Homeless because there's a chance I'll be able to escape the prison without bars at some point

    I would rather be in jail because you don't have to struggle to survive. You get fed three times a day i mean seriously if your homeless you have little chance of survival.

    I'm homeless now and it's not so bad. It's like camping and I have everything I need nearby (food and showers at shelters, computers and movies at the library).

    jail. At least you get food, a bed, and a roof over your head. You'd just have to deal with some crazy people.

    /Are you asking this because of the guy who robbed a store for $1 so he could go to jail to get healthcare?
