get over the border and go where? you really think it means "hey you can come over here and wander around in the streets"? that's the type of shyt that causes the crime trumpers like to cry about all the time :francis:
well then fukk em :yeshrug:

because HL's position is that illegals and migrants come here, and theyre a huge positive for the country, and they dont need any help from the government, and they dont compete with poor americans for housing. but thats clearly not true, is it?

of course. but how does that help a family of citizens who are sitting in line for these apartments behind a family of illegals and one asylum seeker :yeshrug:

bill deblasio shouldnt be representing people who cant even vote for him in an election. shyt is disgusting
You do know public housing is governed by Federal law? The reason for what's happening in New York is because based on the Code of Federal Regulations those families are eligible for assistance. While the law allows for preferences on a waiting list based on certain criteria it's illegal to make citizenship status one of the preferences. It would take a literal act of Congress to change that otherwise the public housing authority would be acting illegally by putting households that are a mix of illegal immigrants and legal residents at the back of their waiting list or kicking them out of their public housing unit solely for that reason.

Fresno, CA.
Population growth is exploding and God didnt make enough land for 8.6 million pople toblive in the 5 boroughs. There need to be population limits.
It’s called cost... demand exceeds supply, cost goes up.
Government wants to come in artificially lower the cost(rent control) in hopes of what I don’t know...
The supply is absolutely finite though and all the “it isn’t right” in the world isn’t gonna change that.

idk, some think of immigration from a national perspective but i think it's more accurate to think of it from a worldwide perspective. Plenty of americans immigrate to other countries so it's about reciprocity at this point. i don't think the HL would like it if others countries closed their borders on us but maybe they dont care to go elsewhere at any point in time :yeshrug:

There are other ways to help that wait list.... like maybe raise the minimum wage to a living wage, limit education costs, reparations? you dont have to shyt on a centuries old human rights concept just to help others when there are plenty of other ways

well maybe deblasio should put more effort into those methods. instead hes caping for people who come here illegally and/or seeking asylum at the expense of people who are already here

or is that not whats happening?

there's more supply than demand, though

there's more unused houses/apartments than people who ain't got one or can't afford one

competition in the free market ceases to exist the moment the supply side realizes "Hey.... instead of competing with each other, we can collude to artificially inflate prices so we can siphon as much as possible from the demand side!"

:leon:That may reflect reality in the real world, but in my imagination colored purely by lolbertarian ideology, I cannot ever blame private capital and must blame The State, so somehow it's their fault. PS, after years of worshiping bootstraps and individualism, I demand the government redistribute me some money for dead peoples' work.

So have a China policy and tell people to only have 2 kids? As well as force people to move out of the NYC metro area?

Interesting. So DHS has a program that could identify illegal immigrants and keep them from living in subsidized housing.

If they really wanted to sell they they should require all businesses use this program to prevent illegal immigrants from taking jobs. :patrice:
