The company says it will build a homeless shelter, offer free health care for city residents, deliver meals to the needy and possibly provide a local police force."

????
Yep, the homeless shelter is the "camp", free "health" care will be offered there. And everyone will be needy enough to qualify for meals delivered right to their cells.
Their generous volunteer police force will be obliged to fill the camp.

Why are these people whining? sounds like a win-win all the way around to me.......

It could be a win-win but when any company like this is secretive about things it rarely is a good thing. Something smells.

So who are they going to house in this prison? Illegal aliens? Terrorists? Is it a FEMA relocation camp? The company sounds very shady and shadowy.
Maybe years of being institutionalized might have some thinking this sounds nice, but I'd be skeptical and worried.

Looking at the time stamps, it appears it took you almost two minutes, but I wont hold it against you.

Right, I stared at that and thought for two minutes. "What could this possibly mean?"
