And the deadbeat tenants will absolutely wreck the apartment to get out of their portion of the rent.

The guy making $50k a year makes millions in 20 years.

Yup. Plus police spend a lot of time idling, where EVs excel. Very little battery use during that time instead of wasting fuel and engine wear. The other big gain is in stop and go traffic, the other place where police spend a fair amount of time.

Lower maintenance should end up costing less with less downtime and fewer cars out of service.

Everyone wants to hate, but if the cars need to be replaced, EV is the way to go. I bet it ends up costing less than buying new gas cars in the long run.

I wonder if it will. Guy's probably got the verbiage in his lease already that the unit can't be used for short term rental.

> Once it does, platforms such as Airbnb or Homeaway will be unable to process payment for a guest trying to book an unregistered unit

How will the city reject payment? I'm pretty sure they can't approve/deny CC transactions where they're not involved.

We'll see if AirBNB plays along. If they don't, I don't see how enforcement will work.

Is that the 'study' where they looked at news sources that identified the race of the perpetrator and skipped those that didn't? So, for example, there were 100 articles on hate crime attacks with 10 mentioning white and 1 mentioning black, they'd say whites are 10x more likely to commit hate crime, while ignoring 89% of the articles.

I don't know about cash assistance and metro cards, but they absolutely are getting lodging, food, and medicaid.

Yup. That's the way it's done now. There's no risking your life to sneak across a desert anymore. Walk across the border and tell BP that you feared for your life. Free ride to town and off you go.

That's why 40% of asylum seekers don't bother showing up for their hearing.

There sure is a plan. Whine about how it's a 'Southern State problem' until the feds make them stop sending buses here. Problem solved!

What's stopping you from doing that?

Why does everyone else need to hide because some people like that

Why?

Is that what happened? I must have missed that in the article

Those are scary.

What Trump tax scam? Were business expenses not deductible before Trump?

> The MTA is literally the worst.

Yes. Literally in the literal sense.

$18.5mm out of a $40b is around 0.04% of the budget. Why not find that money elsewhere?

Where does the article state housing insecure?

How can a family be 'housing insecure,' ie. homeless, and still have full protection of the law as a tenant? So they are both homeless and a tenant?

Being 'housing insecure' is not being homeless. They are not using that definition to define homeless. Not sure why you can't stay on topic. By your measure, nearly everyone is homeless because the high cost of housing.

Did I say it was the norm?

Quantifying living with other people as homeless is padding the numbers. You use the word 'overcrowded', but I don't see it anywhere in their documentation. That is not a prerequisite to being 'homeless,' according to the Advocates for Children of New York.

> But about 69,000 children were doubled up with other families,

Not to downplay the severity of child homelessness, but this seems like a stretch. My family lived with my brother's family for a few years. In Westchester, in a 4000sqft home. But they would have been considered homeless?

I don't know if it should be murder or manslaughter, but that's the problem with politicians that run on cases they aren't familiar with. Now Bragg's got to backpedal and try to downgrade to manslaughter but doing it, perhaps intentionally, poorly.

And it just looks like a giant clusterfuck.
