Santa Monica, California, is preparing to construct an apartment building for the homeless that would cost roughly $1 million per unit.

The apartment building, which will be built in Santa Monica and will be home to “122 apartments” and two levels of underground parking, will cost more than $123 million, according to the website for the City of Santa Monica.

A second design concept on the website found that the project could cost even more, totaling more than $200 million for 196 apartments.

Underground parking? The homeless have cars? Who knew? Easier to flush the money down the toilet.

Pure corruption. We are in the last, end stage of the Cloward-Piven strategy of bankrupting the Republic.

And we have what? 10K/day incoming? Even with 1% of them settling in Santa Monica, their two-building plans are gone in the matter of 3-4 days.

Human nature is what it is. Once any of these slags gets into a free apartment, they’re never going to leave.

For that price, it ought to auto-clean poop and urine off the floors and furniture, with hovering robots.

I work for a large multi family developer in Dallas. To compare, I plucked out one of our properties in Southlake. Texas. Total cost per unit was $187,500.

we’re moving beyond that: A Margaritaville resort in Galveston, and a huge residential development in Midlothian.

Most of our properties are in the Southeast, I know of no plans to build in California or NY…lol.

WE have one of these encampments near my home, built at a cost of $4million. Its been open for the past 3 years. Has tall walls topped with concertina wire, like a prison camp. Great for property values.

It’s empty, except for the city workers/security/doctors/cooks/maintence guys, all of whom sit around all day collecting paycheks waiting for someone to show up.

Drugs, alcohol and prostitution are prohibited, so the down trodden, it’s not-their-fault, white christian straight men are to blame, if only they had more job training homeless won’t use it.

I’d be surprised if it ever opened, or that the $120mil price tags turns into $500mil to finish, then watch as the “new residents” trash the place in 6 months.

Cloward & Piven, propping up the poor, illegals, etc. while DESTROYING the middle class. This middle class is bankrolling their own destruction.

The end result is two classes: ELITES and SERFS. Permanently entrenched majority DEMONRAT-CONTROLLED TYRANNY.

I was shocked to hear even MTG profited off of Ukraine.. MAGA insider trading.
This is why they fund Ukraine then and take turns in kabuki theater talking it down.
