Under Our Eyes All This Time
By Mitch Berg
Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:
Mayor of New York wants to build dozens of new homeless shelters.
Homeless? What homeless? Where did all these homeless people come from, all of the sudden? I didn’t hear anything about homeless for the last eight years. Trump has only been in office for a month and already, we need to build more homeless shelters?
And what’s this about clusters? Seems as if Queens and the Bronx have most of the present homeless sites instead of trendy Manhattan. I wonder why?
And what does this line mean: “Yet he provided no details about where these shelters will be built, a glaring omission that follows furious protests over the last year when the city tried but failed to locate shelters in some neighborhoods.”
Hypocritical NIMBYs in New York? The most Liberal, caring, compassionate, Democrat city in the world?

Hard to believe, isn’t it?

If we could consolidate all major metro areas into one central location where only liberals, liberal policies and liberal ideology are practiced, could it be close enough to a major port that we could build in a flush handle?

It just occurred to me – this explains why Hillary is running for Mayor of New York. After she lost her bid to move into the White House and her foundation/slush-fund folded up, she’s practically one of the homeless herself!

DeBlasio was elected a couple of years back, and due to the success of his policies, there are a ton of homeless people in Gotham. Nothing hard to understand there at all. You put him in charge of the Sahara, and within a few years they’d have a shortage of sand. Duh. (h/T Ronaldus Maximus)
