Summer Camp For All The Kids

I advocate summer camp for all kids with the federal government subsidizing families who cannot afford such an expense. Even though I am a war abolitionist, I see a role for the US military in operating facilities than would give all kids a chance to live in rural scenic place for as long as one month.

Criminal justice administrators could set up similar facilities for young people who have had trouble with the law. Give our young drug offenders and non-violent criminals good meals and the opportunity to learn social and computer skills.
