Is this sponsored by the Mexican drug cartels or the Denver-based liquor stores and pot dispensaries?
I cannot believe they forgot the 'BIPOC' people...

The city has allocated $2million from the American Rescue Plan Act to fund the program, which will be run by the Denver Basic Income Project to mainly get women, transgender and non-binary people housed.
The total program, which will cost up to $9million, is seeking to help around 820 people, but the $2million provided by the city will fund around 140 people.
The rest of the money will be raised through charitable foundations, including the Colorado Health Foundation and the Denver Foundation, Denver Basic Income Project founder Mark Donovan told Axios Denver.
The program is divided into three different groups, with 260 receiving $6,500 up front and then getting $500 a month for 12 months; another 260 will receive $1,000 a month for 12 months; and the control group of 300 will get a $50-a-month stipend to complete surveys.
All participants will also get a free cell phone and a year of service.
At what point do people realize that 95% of homeless people are homeless by choice? There are three types of homeless people. The mentally ill, drug addicts, and people who fall on hard times. To end homelessness, sanitariums need to come back. Some people are not fit for society, but do not belong in prison. Send the mentally ill there, send the legitimately homeless people to shelters to get back on their feet, and then criminalize "living on the streets". Most drug addicts do not want to seek help, which is their right, but with homelessness being criminalized, they will not be allowed to live on the streets.
I hereby declare that I am a transgender female. I consent to you pulling down my pants and viewing my private parts so that you can confirm that I do indeed have the proper "equipment" for a transgender female. Also, I hereby declare that I do not have a house in Denver or anywhere else in Colorado.* So please fork over my money and my new phone. Thanks, suckers!
* I have a house in another state, but they don't need to know that.

See, it is not that difficult to solve.
It's okay to discriminate, and men know that women rule the world!

I'm guessing the 300 people who will receive only $50 a month and be required to complete surveys are going to be pissed.
