Clo,
If 'somebody' wanted to take $30 Billion of New Yorks
money, and use it to build a low income housing
development in Virginia . . . would you still think
that that was a good idea?

Seriously, now. Why should the people in Texas be
forced to pay for Blasio's housing project?

Going further, is New York City really a good place
to be building low income housing? What is the cost
per acre? Outrageous? Especially when one prices
land costs elsewhere.

I do not have a problem with folks living in New York
city.

I do have a problem with 'somebody' stealing the
money out of my pocket to enable them to do so.

Zim.

This is how to get BIG projects done.

The $41.1 billion program,

paid for with city, state, federal and private funds, 
would focus 60 percent on preservation and 40 percent on new construction.
About $8.2 billion of the cost would be borne by the city, 
according to a 116-page report detailing the plan, which de Blasio called the “largest, fastest� affordable-housing program ever attempted at the local level.
