Since this is public housing, the local agency that is running the housing project should already have data on who is living there. Will there actually be more people living there than approved? No doubt, but it shouldn’t be hard to add some numbers accordingly (add in all the baby daddies) and get to work on meeting the needs of the people there.

Laughing at all the Democrat politicians and their handling of the aftermath of Sandy. The people in New York getting exactly what they voted for - nothing.

Isn't this the crowd that calls 911 when McD's runs out of Chicken McNuggets?

Should be interesting.

Don’t think a state can pick the Presidential election day, just Congress.

Sorry about your inconveniences, suckers, the _resident is going to Miami this weekend. They got power and it’s nice and warm there.

Everything will be fine because of Barry’s extensive experience as a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER.

I think Bloomberg did us a great favor by endorsing Obama.

that they will never live up to their full potential and God given talent.

They don't want to. Government dependency is for the vast majority of people in it a lifestyle choice. There was a very unpopular study that came out years ago that showed family wealth was roughly proportional to the number of hours worked per week. They don't want to work and would rather accept a less affluent lifestyle at their neighbors' expense than go out and work. Well screw 'em. I have zero sympathy for them. I'll reserve my sympathy for the hardworking whose property was damaged by the hurricane and who are having difficulties now.

Why would it not be necessary? How would you take care of 49K people in 19 multi-story apts in a city of 8M? How many vehicles do you think it would take to move just those 49K? How would you even tell people help was coming and for them to get ready?

You really think that any president could help 49K people in a couple days after this happened?

They expected Bush to do it in New Orleans.

I know of a couple of big generators they can get their hands on (in the middle of the night).

I hope that they're the very last to get anything.

Indeed, why give them anything at all? Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?

Was New Orleans anything like NYC? Everyone expects a lot from their guy and nothing from the other guy.
