But nobody ever says what that means. It means: imagine you're just homeless. It's a money thing. But you're made to sleep in a room with a ton of people who are schizophrenic, methed out, hearing voices, enjoying the splendors of bath salts (Calgon take me awayyyy), and/or just plain shitty. If it was you then you'd absolutely choose the streets. At least there you can choose who you sleep next to. THAT'S what needs to change.

The fact that NYC has shelters anyone can go too should mean no tolerance for encampments or subway sleepers. Isnt that the point of spending over a billion a year on homeless services? Improve the shelters and make people go there.

I guess you figure we've already been wasted so why not keep the progess going, no one will ever notice. We want the city to take over the land on Second Avenue, and create 100% affordable housingg back, bring back the people and families who lost their homes. We want you to do something about all of the open violations at DOB that are just sitting there rotting.
