Of course.
You took what was obviously a terrible system designed to fuck over poor people, and replaced it with this different obviously terrible system.

I don't know why you're being so incredibly hostile (you seem to think something I said was ableist?), but I wish you the best and I'm sorry to here you were hit by the layoffs!
There should be additional protections in place to ensure that tenants who get laid off can continue to live in their homes, free of the worry to make rent.
Edit: By the way, the term "working people" generally refers to the class and its participants, not just those who work traditional jobs, but also those who happen to be unemployed, unable to work, etc.

They're incorrectly called cobblestones. OP is wrong.

They're not.
"Setts are often referred to as "cobblestones", although a sett is distinct from a cobblestone in that it is quarried or worked to a regular shape, whereas the latter is generally a small, naturally-rounded rock. Setts are usually made of granite."

Cobblestones or setts… those things will outlast the pyramids. Quality product.

Sure. Give them homes, incarcerate them, ship them to Texas, I don’t care, just get rid of them.

Because it’s not your building.
You want to live by your own rules?
Buy a house.
Edit: Im not trying to be facetious, I’m a dog owner as well but I understand the world owes us no understanding. If I don’t like the rules? I move somewhere that doesn’t have said rules.

Well if we gave them homes, you wouldn’t have to deal with them.

The how doesn’t matter to me, I speak for most people in NYC, we just want them gone. Good thing I’m not a politicians, so it’s not my job to provide solutions. All we can do is to vote out politicians and who can’t deal with the issue and keep trying.

Well, apparently a big chunk of "working people" don't deserve that much. Or did you think you were talking to a big rich investor in this thread?
Well I guess since I was hit by the mass layoffs Im technically not working right now, so I suppose your logic checks out. Nvm.

It’s sad cause cobblestone is far superior to ash fault.

I get it. So it’s not that there are human beings without homes, it’s that you must deign to have to look at them. So how do we solve that? Concentration camps? What about mass execution? I’m genuinely curious how you suggest we solve the issue of you having to live in general proximity to abject poverty?

The problem was that it was sold to a foreign company. This is an American company.

Believe me, I have plenty of empathy for the unhoused but I think public transit systems should be kept clean and well maintained. That said, we need to collectively work on finding solutions for the less fortunate.
