WaTimes: On a dead-end street in an industrial block in Northeast Washington, fences tangled with razor wire abut the abandoned warehouse where city officials want to house as many as 50 homeless families by 2018.

Nearby amenities include a Metro bus maintenance yard, two nightclubs, a strip club, several towing companies and a waste transfer station.

“There is no grocery store, there is only one bus line close by, and the nearest Metro stop is a 45-minute walk,”  MORE

  1. Two words, Cabrini Green in Shitcago, that’s all you need to know. And we wonder why progtards are so stupid to keep doing the same old shit over and over again expecting it to produce different results the next time. Good luck suckas, once again they value all the wrong things.

  2. The nearest Safeway and Aldi grocery stores are on 17th Street and Maryland Avenue, and the nearest Giant is on Brentwood Road and W Street. All three are about 1 miles, or a 30-minute walk, from the proposed shelter.

    That seems good enough. They are homeless, as if an hour round trip out of their day to spend money they didn’t make is going to put them too far out of their way; it’s not like they need to make the walk every single day. There’s probably a gas station along the way that accepts EBT and sells Hot’N Spicy pork rinds to provide fuel for the long exhausting walk. Plenty of hubcaps to rip off along the way too, but there’s no sense of entrepreneurship when an EBT debt card is refueled twice per week.

  3. I saw a video last week about a convenience/grocery store in Sweden where the owner runs the entire store by himself. The store is open 24/7/365, he only cleans and stocks the store, otherwise the store functions autonomously. If you need formula at 3AM, you walk in the store, scan the item and automatically pay for it.

    So I was reading the comment section and one user said; What percentage of the Swedish population identifies as ‘African Swede’? Another commentator replied; What is that even supposed to mean? To which I replied; It means; That’s why the United States will never have it.

  4. My first house was in Palmer Park, MD … yeah, I know … anyhow, the LIPs didn’t even try to hide the fact that they were stealing from the Grocery and Drug stores. Walk in, pick shit up, walk out. The checkers wouldn’t even look at them.

    Both went tits-up.
