Yea, let’s just ignore the perpetrators of the antisemitism. Wouldn’t want to be able to identify them, now, would we?

All sarcasm aside, I'm not sure who's outraged but surly you can appreciate how taboo this was to criticize a short time ago

Idk Success Academy seems more like a Military Industrial Complex than a school at this point

The honest conversation you should be having is with those individuals that you saw being openly racist.

True. But it's the same with public housing section 9. Even a market rate tenant can lose a job and not be able to pay rent during the term of a lease. With section 8 (assuming your apartment meets the HUD criteria) you'll at least get 70% of the rent every month

Just curious - in a situation of the restaurant going into debt or a major lawsuit - are the empylowners still on the hook or are they basically having their cake and eating it too?

Charter schools are making big money for their hedge fund investors as they scoop up real estate, cherry-pick the top students in poor districts and basically privatize public education in New York City.

>most of the time they would say hispanic, or even go into specific race, like mexican, or hondurian
No, they wouldn't, because they only have a grainy picture to go off of. And since when is Mexican or Honduran a race?

Yeah, let's forget about the antisemitism and talk about something else. Good tactic.

I work in social services and can confirm this. Another aspect is that a lot of realtors dont want to work with people who already live in their own apartments because the city offers a lower amount of money for the brokers fee. A lot of brokers who deal with clients want people from SROs or shelters because the city offers a full brokers fee payment.

Not all vouchers are section 8. Section 8 also only pays 70%

It's almost definitely organized as some kind of limited liability company, which means that the employowners, like the rest of the owners, are on the hook in that if the business goes under their share of the company is worthless, but they're not personally liable for the debt of the company.
