Homeless costs through the roof

From NY1:

A new report from the City Comptroller's office says the cost to use hotels rooms as homeless shelters is soaring.

Scott Stringer says the city is spending nearly $130,000 more per day to keep the homeless in hotels. The report also finds that the number of homeless people being placed in hotels shot up around 33 percent between October and February.

It is very easy to spend and waste moneys when it is NOT your own...

This is the new scandal.

Where are the new Wayne Barrett's and Jack Newfield's to cover this new city for sale.

The people of Maspeth and Crown Heights have excellently exposed De Faustio's, Banks, and Restler's demented plan

This explains the property taxes going through the roof.
Oh yeah and everybody with exemptions needs to recertify every year, old, disabled, blind and deaf. Like they get younger or better. What a racket!

There is no such thing as homelessness; this is a "lifestyle" and we are stuck paying for this.

NYC is the world's premier financial center, has one of the top hospitals in the world and is home to Silicon Alley with a massive Google complex that employs tens of thousands of people.

New York institutions create more biotechnology-related patents than any other metropolitan area in the United States. NYC is also home to an Ivy League university.


So yes, thank you liberal city leaders because it could suck a lot more. Look a West Virginia.
