          Yes, and unless I misunderstood, Trump just signed an executive order that would put the homeless in detention centers. Nevermind, most people who are becoming homeless in every state, at every age are doing so because they cannot afford the price of housing.

            I look forward to seeing how he intends to pay for it.

            It won’t be cheap.

              I don't think he intends it to cost very much per ... inmate.

                The institutional facilities in New York State for those with developmental disabilities were large in scale and existed throughout the State.

                I know because my mother worked for this agency for 20 years and received vesting and a pension.

                Geraldo Rivera - Wikipedia https://share.google/ihaKUoRcUOvUWbSNG

                "Rivera was hired by WABC-TV in 1970 as a reporter for Eyewitness News. In 1972, he garnered national attention and won a Peabody Award[14][15] for Willowbrook: The Last Great Disgrace, his report on the neglect and abuse of patients with intellectual disabilities at Staten Island's Willowbrook State School and Rockland County's Letchworth Village,..."

                Conditions improved tremendously by the time my mother started working at one the facilities.

                There was a parallel set of similar State psychiatric hospitals.

                Reagan started to dismantle these facilities and many of the residents ended up on the streets.

                So, it's come full circle.

                Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.

                Incidentally, the money my father left my brother and me was inherited from my mother who inherited from her father.

                My grandfather was NCO Air Force. He retired with a 20 year vesting. Then he worked for the VA and retired with a 10 year vesting but worked three more. My grandmother predeceased him. She worked for Fireman's Fund and received a 20 year vesting before American Express bought it. She then worked for two years at a Dr.'s office.

                My grandparents worked for over 50 years. It's my grandfather's, my grandmother's, my father's, and my mother's money my brother and I will be receiving.

                Yet there are people who do not deign to treat me as being a person from the middle class for various twisted reasons, who know nothing about my family and nothing about me.

                Where are their stereotypes now?

                Sometimes ignorance isn't bliss. It's just ignorance.
