[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the original point, it would be a hell of a lot cheaper to house migrants and homeless people in Texas than it would in DC. Average cost of an acre of land in Texas: Less than $4,000 Average cost of an acre of land in Washington DC: over $4,000,000 How does it make any sense to send them to a place that costs 1,000x more?[/quote] How do you "send" people in DC to DC?[/quote] Huh? Nobody said anything about sending people in DC to DC. The thread is about not sending people in Texas to DC, and sending people in DC to someplace where they can be housed and receive the services they need in a much more cost-effective way.[/quote] How about we don't send anybody anywhere? Provide services to people where they are.[/quote] No, because "no capacity" and "too expensive to add more capacity" have literally been repeatedly stated over and over by multiple posters throughout this thread.[/quote]
