We should take all the existing but vacant gov facilites: VA centers, military bases, etc. and house those who are "incapable" of financial support of themselves. It wouldn't be "taking away their rights" it would be making them wards of the govt. Similar to those enlisted in the services. Employ limited instructors(drill sgts) to "instill" values and "teach" a trade, from dish washers to businessmen/women. There would be uniforms, like the gov supported military, meals etc. Basically, all needing to be supported by the Gov would be cared for by the gov and not living in better homes, with health insur.and benefits unavailable to the regular working Joe. If the drudgery of being under control got too demanding, one could apply for release into society, pending outside job acceptance.
