NYC now pays $11 Billion to care for migrants – and cuts all other city services massively.

Assuming your figures are correct, that 77,000 per migrant is not given to the migrant but spent on services within the city, which generates jobs

@Convivial i never said it was "given". throughout my post i reiterate "food, housing, medical care, and education".
it's still money, either way. And NYC is CUTTING jobs - police, teachers, trash collectors, etc, to make ends meet. the payroll is shrinking, not growing.

@SusanInFlorida i agree with your comments above.. There will be waste, whether it's through bureaucracy or commercial profits
Mayor was all for an open border. His declaration. Mayor is an incompetent person not fit for the job. He was all about NYC being a Sanctuary city. Reality is he opened a Pandora’s box and can’t quite shut it.

@Thinkerbell You see the kids and women everywhere selling candy. Every subway car, etc
Plus some of the Hispanic areas of Queens have become open air prostitution markets

@Slade
If you buy any just to get rid of them, don't eat it.
It's probably laced with fentanyl, compliments of President Xi. 🙄

@Thinkerbell oh I know. Never do
The first mistake IMO was to give these migrants what “they wanted” The meals weren’t to their liking, the city tried to accommodate them. It came to the point where the city was ( taxpayers) paying for laundry services for them. Now they’re griping about where they’re being housed( Floyd bennet field I think). The city ought to play every day a new NYC Anthem for them…” I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden”.
And has anyone noticed in news footage the large number of various bikes /scooters that suddenly are appearing on the streets? What’s that about?
And though you can look at Adams despite his stupid comment about having an open border, the real blame is at the feet of the Administration and those who pull the strings of Biden, Harris ( alleged border czar) and the smug prick Mayorkas.
This isn’t by chance. It’s orchestrated.

@soar2newhighs i think migrants who flew to the USA, or Canada or Mexico for a border crossing have more assets and higher expectations than we realize.
Why can't we either enforce the border laws as passed by congress, or force congress to update them? The present situation where presidents of opposing parties, governors, and city mayors enact whatever policy pops into their heads is untenable. Follow the constitution. Write a bill, debate it, and vote on it.

Got hit by an illegal alien
Foreign license no insurance
Cause 4200.00 worth of damage
Truck doesn’t even have 3000. Miles on it .
I live in a sanctuary city ( not happy about it) Boston Massachusetts.
Our illustrious Governor

Has asked people to take
Illegal aliens into their homes..
Absolutely insane…
And of course we the working men and woman will pay for them…

@DDaverde a couple of years ago a (drunk) "undocumented worker" (illegal alien) crashed into another car. Several people were killed. Some survived - it was a family of four.
a local church immediately held a fund raiser to send the "undocumented worker's" remains back to his nation of origin for burial.

I guess he knuckled under to the pressure the FBI was putting on him after he pushed back against biden's corrupt scheme.
strait46 · 46-50, M
amen, only give charity if you can. now that he sees the burden, that u.s. CAN'T give , that much charity , he should insist on closed borders, but instead continues DNC TRADITION no garbage pick because u.s. citizens are LAST. same as most dnc policies. obama truman even fdr. gasp.
SusanInFlorida · 31-35, F
@strait46 i agree. but i thank my lucky stars i don't live in ukraine. they must be astonished that we're carping about trash collection, libraries, and pre school while their country is being invaded by russian prison inmates who were given guns and army uniforms.

@Confined show your link, and source. It sure looks like 8 billion when i turn on CNN, Fox, BBC, PBS, MSNBC, etc.
Tetsuya · 51-55, M
the city could have just hired them as contract workers
SusanInFlorida · 31-35, F
@Tetsuya your idea is funny, because it's true. trash collection, cleanout of abandoned housing units, recycling . . . make it a condition of receiving benefits if your an able bodied single adult.
