Socialism

This implies the inaccessibility is a side effect. Is it? Or is punishing the pregnant, disabled, and elderly just an added bonus?

And the homeless will still go there because at least they'll have some form of shelter

That picture is absolutely something an uncle in 1998 would forward with a little subject line about socialism in bad country

They're doing this shit where I live too, except it's making sure you're exposed to the elements as much as possible as a way of "discouraging" people from using transit stops for shelter. They didn't want people using them as shelters from our brutal winters so they made sure no one can stay warm while they wait, problem solved!

Ok so the estimate for number of people sleeping on the streets or subways every night is around 4,140 from a federally mandated survey from July of this year

damn if only the wealthiest city on earth had the money to house an additional 4,140 people but alas it's impossible. That's almost like two blocks of housing, can you imagine it
