New York City shipping homeless people across the country as part of controversial relocation programme

More than 12,000 homeless people in New York City were sent to live across the country in 32 states, and Puerto Rico, as part of a “special one-time assistance programme”, according to a new report.

The report, published on Tuesday in the New York Post, says the city sent 5,074 homeless families, a total of 12,482 people, to 373 cities nationwide, costing its taxpayers $89m (£69m).

The city has reportedly shelled out thousands of dollars on everything from travel to home furnishing for the relocated homeless families, though it has not disclosed the specific cost breakdown for such expenditures.

Some recipients told the newspaper conditions in their relocated apartments were “completely unlivable”.

The New York State Senate has also launched an investigation into the programme.

I can solve the homeless problem in one week. Enforce the same vagrancy laws we had 50 years ago. Vagrants get arrested or kicked out of town.
Won't happen because liberals think they are doing good  when they enable/help vagrants do drugs and not work.
Enabling bad behavior is not virtuous.
