“Gotham’s Department of Homeless Services and Health & Hospitals each spend an average of $363 daily to provide food and shelter for just a single migrant.”

That comes out to $10,890 / month for living expenses.

To visualize:

You can live in a luxury high rise 1 Bdr at 555TEN for $4995/month. And spend $12 for breakfast, $92.50 for lunch and $92.50 for dinner.

Life is good as an immigrant.

Life is good as someone getting paid to feed and house migrants. They're not living that well, the money is going to corruption.

Yes I was being sarcastic. You know their living conditions are bad and the meals are shit. Gotta maximize those profits from government funds

Life probably isn’t great for the people who got bussed to a new city in a foreign land to become wards of the state but I am sure that whatever bureaucrats are in charge of these programs have a lot of friends in hotels and food service that suddenly got a lot richer
