It’s not just Newark. Didn’t I read an article last week that even small towns across America are being sent trash from NYC?
************************************************************

I wonder if New York is sending some to California and California is sending some back to New York...sounds crazy enough for these two states...

We may know soon enough when NYC starts having streets full of feces.

My neighbor who just got back from New York says they already are doing that...it hasn’t hit 5th Ave. yet but it’s not out of the question when...

If they are sent to Lawn Guyland, they will probably wind up in Hempstead or Freeport if Nassau. Then again, all of central and eastern Suffolk are full of cheap rentals waiting for tenants, so hope they enjoy Medford.

Interesting - I can’t imagine that NYC taxpayers are thrilled about the idea of shelling out $10,000-$20,000 per person to move them. But I can see the flip side, “eradicating homelessness” in New York... except it’s just by exporting them.

Can’t find them housing in New York state? Why do they want to expel them from the state?

Of course the other cities are going to resent it - or, they will after the first year. Who’s gonna pay for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th year. Cheaper for NY in the long run I’m sure. For Newark, more costly.

Or are these places crime infested section 8 places, where nobody really wants to live in the first place?

The kicker is that section eight and crime need not be synonymous. Don't issue the aid to criminals, period. It should be reserved for working poor, who for reasons other than behavior are unable to afford a home. Or for those who, through no fault of their own, are unable to stay employed.

Actually, all such programs should go away and charity freely given should help them. But that's not likely to happen.

How about a one-way bus ticket and the admonition “Don’t come back”? Saves a lot of bucks!
