That's why they are giving it to women, trans and non-binaries.

Give it to men and it's definitely going directly to hookers and blow.

Where does the other $320,000 go? That's one hell of a lot for administration costs to write a few checks.

Even homeless white men are openly discriminated against now.

Why doesn't NY or CA send homeless to Texas and Florida? I would expect that soon.

"The participants will be chosen at random but will largely derive from women, transgender, and non-binary individuals"

Haha ok. Chosen at random but somehow they'll mostly be trans or women? Is the Denver homeless population that different from Dallas? Very few women trans or "non binary" around here. Mostly meth heads or smacked out dudes.

The selected individuals will be robbed/killed by the other homeless people

Mailing them checks?

Withholding income tax?

Or just direct deposit it?

6500 is a lot of cash to carry around. Do dealers accept debit cards?

Come on, I'm sure they will spend it on LinkedIn Premium subscriptions and a new suit.

Denver allocates $2MILLION in taxpayer funds to provide 140 homeless people with $12,000 in no-strings-attached cash - as a last-ditch effort to lift them out of destitution, combat soaring crime rates and clean up squalid encampments

  • Denver has allocated $2million from the American Rescue Plan Act to fund the program, which will be run by the Denver Basic Income Project
  • The program, which in total will cost around $9million, is seeking to help around 820 people, but the $2million provided by the city will fund around 140 people
  • The program will be divided into three groups with 260 receiving $6,500 upfront then $500 a month for 12 months
  • Another 260 will get $1,000 a month for 12 months and 300 will get $50 stipends to complete surveys to help see how the program is working
  • The participants will be chosen at random but will largely derive from women, transgender, and non-binary individuals


of course women and the sexually confused and those in denial will make up the bulk of it.
Drug dealers love this idea. Sales will go thru the roof.

You are going to have the Hunger Games under overpasses out there. City will have no idea where this money ends up or how it gets spent.

Leftists are the dumbest m'fers alive with this kind of stuff.

If you want less of a behavior, tax it.

If you want more of a behavior, subsidize it.

The city council knows exactly where the money is going; lining politicians' pockets. It's the taxpayers that have no idea where that money is going. Not much of a papertrail if you're handing a suitcase full of money to a crack addict under the overpass.

Listened to a segment about a Canadian program where they staff medical folks in "safe" drug use shelters so people can shoot up and get help when they OD. It's insane the stupidity of all this.

They are admittedly failing to get them turned around off drugs, so the answer is to give them oxygen, revive during an OD, medical care, etc. it's an enablement worse than just providing clean needles.

So unconstitutional on multiple levels, awesome. Think we are well past "inching" towards collectivism.

Good grief! Have they thought about how much it is going to cost to hire biologists to identify the women, transgenders and non-binaries??!!

In a city where Marijuana has been legalized what could go wrong?

I am sure the overwhelming majority of these homeless people will spend it responsibly on housing and getting their act together so they can become productive members of society.

Really, nailed it. The audit of where this money goes will be impossible to trace.
  • Auditor interviews homeless person.
  • Homeless person denies receiving any funds at all.
  • Auditor reports missing funds.
  • Auditor told not to believe homeless person trust us we know what we're doing.
  • Bureaucrat takes extended family on vacation to Hawaii.
