“Migrants” in your guest room?

NYC has many underutilized office spaces since the pandemic, right?

Adams said "private residence."

That's not an office space. That's a house, or apartment.

[Jon]

Post pictures I’m sure I’ll find an acceptable one.

If I took in one of these illegals, would I actually own them or just have the use of their services?

He should consider office spaces.

Perhaps. Who would be responsible for utilities, cleaning, etc of those privately-owned areas? Who's going to pay for them.

But, that's not what he said, He said private residences. I understand Martha's Vineyard has a lot of available space during a good portion of the year. I'll bethca that the Mayor's home has a spare bedroom or four.

@Jon ...

Wasn't he saying they could go to 'faith-based' organizations - i.e. churches, or live with private individuals who are struggling to make ends meet - i.e. presumably he means the people putting them up will be paid by the city to do so?

Not that is necessarily a good idea, but isn't that what he meant? Not just forcing them on the locals.

Indeed I am.

Being forced to provide room and board for the British soldiers was one of the primary reasons for the revolutionary war.

This is what you memorize for the American citizenship test.

Don’t encourage him.

He's so easy...

@Jon ...

She can stay in my room, the guest room is a tad uncomfortable.

[LuFins Dad]

I may be wrong, but I had the impression that these were going to be voluntary requests, not mandated. That’s a pretty big difference…

[Jon]

Of course.

[LuFins Dad]

@Jon said in “Migrants” in your guest room?:

Of course.

Then the allusions to past historical atrocities are invalid, and people should be smacked on the back of their heads for making them.

[George K]

Of course.

Right. I've read that reimbursement will be about $150 per person per day. There's money to be made, to be sure.

Who's going to assume the responsibility for trashing the place, providing the meals, and monitoring that there's no underage sex in the halls or drug trafficking? The AirBnB owner?
