Couldn't this money be better spent? I mean this building will be torn down in the spring. I would think that $1.5 M would be a huge start on some affordable housing project. Make it dormitory style; it's good enough for our future doctors, lawyers and engineers. Why not for the homeless?
Or hell, just send them to Mexico; I know of a few all inclusives that you could get for almost that much money.  |
Well I've got no problem with this. Fact is, these people need to stay somewhere now, not two years from now.
Whatever you think of "bums and creeps", these are human beings we're talking about.
