The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

city leaders have decided spending public money to cover the travel whims of illegal aliens is an investment compared to keeping those migrants living in the city on the taxpayer dime. Not only are they being flown to other states, but even to other countries, such as Morocco and Colombia.'

The facts.....the truth.....is a little different. A reticketing center has been set up to help migrants seeking asylum, who choose to do this, take a 1-way flight to the destination of their choice. NYC has run out of room, but is not abandoning these asylum seekers to the streets. I'm not saying that this is ideal. But it is a half-way reasonable attempt to help the city and help these migrants.
