New York City to hand out $53 million in pre-paid credit cards to migrant families: report

New York City will soon launch a $53 million pilot program to hand out pre-paid credit cards to migrant families housed in hotels, according to a report.

The New York Post, citing city records, reported that 500 migrant families at the Roosevelt Hotel will receive pre-paid cards to help them buy food. The program is intended to replace the current food service provided there, the Post reported.

"Not only will this provide families with the ability to purchase fresh food for their culturally relevant diets and the baby supplies of their choosing, but the pilot program is expected to save New York City more than $600,000 per month, or more than $7.2 million annually," a spokesperson for New York City Mayor Eric Adams told the paper in a statement.

City Hall did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

First of all, it's once again F'k Americans who are living on the streets and going hungry   Always with democrats it's Americans last and illegal aliens first....and yet the morons will keep voting them into office.

Secondly:

If these illegals want to keep eating their 'culturally relevant diets and baby supplies of their choosing' they should go home, now! Do not pass go, do not collect American taxpayer sweat and blood, just go home NOW!

Spending $53 million in order to save $7.2 million?  Makes perfect sense if you're a Dem.

Right now here in California that Noisome POS is on TV pushing a ballot measure to raise money to build homes for homeless Vets. Now I'm not against taking care of our Vets, God knows they deserve so much better than what they get. What chaps my ass is this POS acting like it's someone else's fault that Vets and other Americans are homeless and hungry living on the streets when democrats shovel taxpayer dollars to illegals giving them homes, food, clothing, spending money and healthcare in preference to Americans. Instead of asking Californians to tax themselves even more, maybe a better solution is stop supporting illegals and start supporting Americans

@Hoodat

Is all this partly an attempt to collapse the credit card industry?

I know nothing about finance. If it is,what would be the purpose,other than to maybe drive some banks into bankruptcy so that larger banks can  buy them at a dime on the dollar?
