I’m sure it will work as well in NY as it does in Mexico.
If you are going to pay people for doing things they should be doing anyway (like taking their child to the doctor or going to a PTA meeting) then Sheryl Crow would have had more success with her cockamaimie toilet paper idea if she just offered to pay people for not using the stuff (she’s got the money).
“I’m sure it will work as well in NY as it does in Mexico.”
It DOESN”T WORK in Mexico. Long lines of Tlapaneco women wait in the Sun in remote villages of Guerrero, to receive their monthly dividends. They have to come out in droves to sweep the streets, pick up trash, and get their Earned Income, (help the poor). After the women get their money, they hand it over to the HEAD of the household, the MACHO who takes the cash, walks 20 yards to the street where CORONA beer trucks follow the CASH give away in armoured cars. Beer is purchased by the case, men sit on one case, put a case in the middle for a deck of cards, and gamble and drink it all away. At the end of the day, everyone is dead drunk, beat up, and PROGRESA we here in Mexico gave the term POBREZA..meaning poverty. I wrote the Mexican President and told him he ought to just extend a check direct to Corona Beer and avoid the hassle of armoured cars, bullet proof vests, and tons of paper work.
