When investors have tons of money, they like to waste some of it, apparently.
“You could buy 72 apartments or townhouses for a lot less than that”
More importantly, if your goal is “help the poverty streeken Mexicans” (is there any other kind?!), that money would build about 10 times as many homes in Mexico...so why do it here?!
The answer is, it gives them a political force HERE.
“””Sparrow Terrace in Watsonville, a brand-new housing complex that will feature 72 affordable apartments for low-income families, farmworkers and formerly homeless people”””
This is typical for governments.
Build high-cost, low-income housing in high-cost areas.
Meanwhile, there are many areas of the country where these low-income people could live in low-housing cost areas.
Since many of these low-income people are not working, but living on the government welfare, they should move to a low-cost housing area.
“So single men likely, but what about single women cashiers (or other full time low income job)?”
Oh it’s just a scam to avoid saying “no palefaces”!
They will have three generations living there in a flash and they will stay there forever. There are a lot of other hobohotels here and it’s just like that: same families, living for next to nothing for decades.
As Trump said...it’s supposed to be a trampoline, not a hammock.
Ah, but that wouldn’t assuage the HURT they feel for being poor...and we must make them FEEL better...cuz it’s all our fault! doncha know...
Is Blackrock, Vanguard or State Street the real owner?
Article mentioned Wells Fargo, but there are other investors unmentioned...so likely that group of gangsters too.
Long as they get taxpayer $$$ to make the payments, they’re in.
Since we are stuck with politicians, it is actually worse than that.
For decades, anyone in CA, including newly arrived illegal entrants, who could produce a telephone bill or water bill in their name has been eligible to vote in that state's federal election's - notwithstanding federal statutes prohibiting non-citizen voting.
There was an "in-your-face" agenda at work that should have been very clear and alarming to any patriot, and especially politicians "in opposing parties" when the Biden handlers opened our borders.
We lived in quonset huts that were WWII leftovers when my father went to school on GI bill.
Hadda big sheet put up to separate the “kitchen” (one sink) from the “bedrooms”...the one that was sposeta be a living room.
In the summer it was like 300 deg in there. After all, it was just a corrugated steel/aluminum oven, ya know?
The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, virtually zero crime. Funny that.
Watsonville is a Mexican gangster nightmare because...they are there in squadron strength. Didn’t use to be: people I know grew up there in the ‘50s/60’s and said it was a nermal ‘Merican town. Then...the Invasion began.
$56 million could build a lot of chicken farms and vegetable fields in Mehico, and put a whole village to work
Hell, $56M is $5600 / person for a town of 10,000.
That’s a years wages in Southern Mexico!
And undoubtedly coulda built them some crappy cinder block casas that they would be just fine with.
But that wouldn’t buy any votes for Rat politicians.
“they should move to a low-cost housing area”
Actually, that place is called “Mexico” which is where virtually ALL of them came from.
And the complex has child care since they usually have between 3-5 children, all of whom they plan to claim US citizenship for. Then they can bring in the rest of their extended families as soon as the anchor babies start hitting 21.
Best of all, they get free babysitting at the local schools, which around here serve three meals a day: god forbid they should fund their own children. Also, since it’s subsidized housing, they pay ZERO property taxes...meaning the actual home owners have to put up with crap schools overrun by los invasadores ninos.
It’s a fabulous win-win-win for them...free housing, free daycare, free food, free “school” (=babysitting).
The only losers are...us.
No reason for American farm workers to be “low income”. Send the illegals home and pay the Americans fairly. Also, once the illegals go home, lower-cost housing will open up tremendously.
This is Free Republic, unfortunately the home of the cheap labor express.
And the “If Trump’s for amnesty, it must be good” pom-pommers.
We need to fix our country by sending back the low-skill, low-wage invaders. Such American workers would need to see their incomes double just to get back to where things were a few decades ago. Also, we’ve got to fix our housing costs for the low-skill and young by sending ALL ILLEGALS HOME.
