Normal people... I mean the minority of people who have jobs have seen their income reduced a lot more than that
Actually $36 dollars a month, or 1/8 of the current monthly allotment.
My house hold cash has went down $500 in one year, because of increased property taxes to fund a projects around town and to replace a perfectly good senior center. Maybe I should riot too. $500 comes to just over $40 a month.
This doesn’t count that the property tax on my house went up nearly 22% in the last 4 years.
Eleven bucks is sixteen meals for a family of three in NY?!!! How can anybody say things like this and pass the red face test? There is no way anyone in NY can stretch $11 to make 16 meals for 3 people. Hell, I’d think anybody anywhere in the US would be hard pressed to do that...
Ironically, If you could hire the poor at just a dollar an hour they could immediately increase their incomes by $160/hr.
All income earned below “minimum wage” could be tax free. You’d see a renaissance across every poor community.
