Why not just eliminate housing subsidies and completely eliminate all taxpayer-funded handouts?
Why should an illegal get an apartment over an elderly citizen who worked very hard her whole life, paid taxes, and currently is struggling on a small fixed income?
Why should my income be stolen from me to pay for the housing of an elderly citizen?

There are tens of thousands of homeless in NYC, along with thousands more elderly Americans on low fixed incomes, so what does UltraLib Deblasio do to help them? He makes them compete with illegal aliens for the affordable housing units!
Meanwhile the middle class in NYC need to drop $2k a month for studio apartments due to artificially restricted supply.
Yes, it will not only affect the homeless people, but also those who are renting. The rent will be affected. Even home prices can be affected indirectly. NYC housing crisis has already been bad enough.
