@ceaweaver Have several seats with your piece of sht “hot take” about vouchers. @NydiaVelazquez said the truth: “@NYCHA or any city agency or city government should not be in the business of selling public housing.” https://youtu.be/9OrkpFN--Tc https://twitter.com/ceaweaver/status/1434238287393312771 …

Hey! It’s not a hot take and I’m not even saying it abt NYCHA! Let’s set just NYCHA aside entirely: a big pool of federal money in the form of project based section 8 could help us convert vacant and distressed hotels to housing for the homeless.
It’s not about selling NYCHA at all - it’s abt more subsidy for the operation of housing that serves low income people - something that often imo gets missed in rezoning debates. That’s all!

In our current property regime, vouchers = a subsidy to private development (which is why NYCHA residents oppose, and that’s fair!) My point is that doesn’t have to be true - they could, in the long run, in a different property regime, subsidize social or public housing

In this economy, there is no place for capitalist developers to be seeking profits. Remember, there are more than 550,000 homeless in this country; government needs to do more.
