Rapid City finally takes blogger's advice

Back in 2016 this blogger urged Rapid City to help unhoused people apply for Medicaid and give folks without places to live $1000 vouchers so they can flee South Dakota and its brutal winters.

2020 presidential candidate, Andrew Yang wanted to implement a universal basic income of $12,000 a year and guaranteed income (GI) demonstration projects are underway in several states including in New Mexico. That same year Republican former mayor Steve Allender said it costs Rapid City some $15 million every year to address homelessness. Even Palestinian refugee and Muslim Hani Shafai wants to house Rapid City's perpetual homeless population.

Harley owners, some of whom have ties to clubs with nefarious pasts and many of them pre-1970s graduates of Spearditch High School, cruise the streets in summer and then recuse themselves from the horrible Lawrence County winters for warmer white compounds in Scottsdale, Marana, Sedona or Mesa. Often, there are elderly parents in one of the ubiquitous long-term care facilities and cemeteries. These obese Republican slackers taking advantage of the dynasty trust industry are now fleeing the frozen tundra in their RVs ahead of another six-month winter and strings of below-zero days.

Denver and Albuquerque are converting empty office buildings to apartments. Las Cruces will be in the mid-60s and low 70s all week, El Paso and Tucson will be, too and Phoenix will be in the mid-70s.
