Having just recently visited the new Whole Foods in Williamsburg, I can see the need for Bowery WF to undergo some improvements. xOMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09322875396502110373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-39710174111234859462017-02-13T13:35:18.708-05:002017-02-13T13:35:18.708-05:00"A little tired" isn't a comment on ..."A little tired" isn't a comment on business, it's a comment on the state of the store--it's looking a little worn. After 10 years of business, it's not surprising it's looking a little worse for wear. Tattered around the edges. Thanks to consistently being busy.

NYC is the only US city that guarantees you some kind of shelter. Food, clothes, shelter, medical services and dental benefits are all available. This notion that these people have nowhere to go and no assistance available is not accurate. If you sit in Whole Foods buying, using, and selling heroin all day every day you aren't a victim. You're a junkie who refuses help. Stop with the pity and blaming other people. They can go get into a shelter anytime they choose. I know firsthand what this is like. If you put as much effort into getting your life together as they do complaining and getting high they wouldn't be in this situation.

We allow homeless people to invade businesses/private property/public spaces and are even too afraid to call the police for fear that some advocacy group will shame/sue you. <br /><br />But on the other hand... we have rallies to help illegals/legals to stay/enter the country but we don't give a damn about the lost/starving/mentally ill people roaming our streets and taking shelter in Whole Foods/libraries/sidewalks.<br /><br />And we elect people to solve these problems for us!

The Bowery Mission and food stamps ensure these folks aren't hungry. When do people take responsibility for their choices and additions? Telling employed taxpaying law abiding NYers to 'deal with it' is ridiculous. The presence of junkies who have TB, scabies, body lice etc in a supermarket is a public health hazard and the employees who are forced to ' deal with it' every day should have some recourse. It a disgusting situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-9476831745634609812017-02-13T07:56:26.869-05:002017-02-13T07:56:26.869-05:00"Substance abusers, drug dealers and homeless..."Substance abusers, drug dealers and homeless people are turning the sunny cafe area, where shoppers can dine on pulled pork or Vietnamese sandwiches, into their own private social club for the cost of a cup of coffee or nothing at all."<br /><br />It is so nice that Whole Foods is "embracing" local residents, you know the people that lived on the footprint of where that building now stands. Sorry privilege complainers, this is what happens with hyper gentrification, putting up shiny new buildings with high end shopping does not solve addiction, hunger and poverty, deal with it.
