I know it is SHOCKING that illegals would DEMAND the best!
It’s the land of the freebies for NYC’s ‘entitled’ migrants
By Michael Goodwin
You can say this for the migrants demanding more free stuff from City Hall: They’re fast learners about the new American ethos of endless entitlement.
Schooled and led by far-left activists, they arrive here within days of illegally crossing the southern border and claiming asylum, then start agitating for better accommodations in pricey neighborhoods.
Tents in the Bronx, barracks in Brooklyn or homeless shelters anywhere are not good enough. Only first-class Manhattan hotels, where the city pays upward of $500 a night per room, are acceptable.
The welcome wagon comes with free food, free cellphones, free transit passes, free school and free health care.
Unfortunately, the booty is not free for taxpayers, which brings us to the slow learners in the sad saga.
That would be the gang at City Hall that is hell-bent on proving once again that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. The open-ended promises are a prime example of how Eric Adams missed key lessons at mayoral school.
His predecessors learned that if you say “Come and get it,” people will come and get it, especially when it’s free. Adams apparently believed his election had changed human nature.
Mixed messages
Recall that he loudly embraced New York’s status as a sanctuary city and urged the Democratic mayor of El Paso, Texas, to send 200 migrants a day to Gotham. In one of his many mixed messages, Adams opened that door even as he denounced Texas’ Republican Gov. Greg Abbott for sending busloads of other migrants.
And he said nothing about the secret nighttime migrant flights to area airports arranged by the Biden White House. Are only migrants sent by Democrats welcome?
It was the exact wrong way to look at the problem. Abbott and other border-state leaders, frustrated with being ignored by President Biden as more than 5 million people have crossed the border, were legitimately trying to spread the pain in hopes of making Adams and other Dem mayors allies for securing the crossing points.
Nonetheless, by October, some 17,000 migrants had arrived here, with most living in crowded city shelters that already housed nearly 60,000 homeless people. With a clear change in tone, Adams suddenly declared a state of emergency and said the city had no more room at the inn.
“New Yorkers are angry,” he said. “I am angry too. We have not asked for this.”
Actually, he had. But he was also banking on fellow Dems in Albany and Washington delivering financial aid.
First he said the cost would be $1 billion, then he said $2 billion.
