COMPASSION FOR THE HOMELESS, SOCIALIST STYLE




New York City’s socialist Mayor de Blasio has shown matchless compassion to NYC’s homeless:

·       From the tropical shores of Honolulu and Puerto Rico, to the badlands of Utah and backwaters of Louisiana, the Big Apple has sent local homeless families to 373 cities across the country with a full year of rent in their pockets as part of Mayor Bill de Blasio’s “Special One-Time Assistance Program.” Usually, the receiving city knows nothing about it. https://nypost.com/2019/10/26/nyc-homeless-initiative-sends-people-across-us-without-telling-receiving-cities/

Rather than caring for them, de Blasio has conveniently dumped them on other cities, even as far as Honolulu, without their being told of this influx. Nevertheless, many return, so far 224 families are back in the NYC shelter system.

Legal Aid lawyer Joshua Goldfein, whose firm represents these families complained about NYC’s dumping program:

·       “We suggested that DHS reach out to people as their subsidy runs out to confirm they will be secure and not have to re-enter shelter, but the agency told us they have no plans to do that.”  

At least the USSR and Chinese socialists had long range plans, even if they did include genocide. They put their people to work. However, our socialists seem to be more myopic – buy them a ticket and send the homeless elsewhere, where they can be a problem to someone else.
