[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn’t we pay taxes to support social services? The Republican Congress and the Trump White House decided to keep our money, didn’t they? Aren’t they spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars on National Guard deployment to low-crime areas instead of neighborhoods that need support or on support for the homeless?[/quote]

Can you please stop making this about stupid party politics? It's completely irrelevant because under any administration literally nothing is done for this problem and billions of taxpayer dollars are spent every single year no matter who is in power.  De Blowisio blew through billions and his wife wasted over 800 mil allocated to mental health initiatives, after which mental health issues of NYers are evidently worse.  There are much deeper changes needed in our society to not only provide resources for these people that would make a diff but also to prevent more and more people becoming homeless, addicted, desperate enough to slowly commit their suicide in plain view of others not caring about anything. some of these changes will not be very nice as they will involve forcing people out and removing choices to live on the streets.
