“#Don\u2019t squat in Moynihan Station<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

From the out-of-touch world of progressives: Advocates are upset that the new Moynihan train hall is off-putting to the homeless, The City reports.<\/p>\n

After the taxpayers spent\u00a0$1.6 billion on the renovation,\u00a0it would be wrong if the homeless claimed the territory as an annex to their omnipresence at Penn Station.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t heartless. New York spends tens of millions of dollars a year on housing for the homeless, providing shelter for every person who wants it. Just because some people would rather sleep in a train station and panhandle the passengers doesn\u2019t mean the city must accommodate them.<\/p>\n

That\u00a0the homeless feel unwelcome<\/a>\u00a0among the glistening grandeur of the elegant waiting area, and are opting to stay put in Penn, is a loss only to NJTransit commuters as Amtrak and LIRR passengers enjoy the new hall.<\/p>\n

The \u201cmean\u201d features of Moynihan include a lack of seating for anyone except ticketed passengers and daily closure from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. But general<\/a> seating will come once stores open in the new hall, so enjoy a vagrant-free hall while you can. <\/p>\n

And pray that New York\u2019s political leaders learn to ignore the advocates and start getting serious about treating the homeless as people who need tough love \u2014 not ridiculous \u201crights\u201d that do them no good, but leave them a plague on so many public spaces.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
