Bloomberg: No Food Donations to Homeless Shelters
20th March 2012
“[Glenn] Richter has been collecting food from places like the Ohav Zedek synagogue and bringing it to homeless shelters for more than 20 years, but recently his donation, including a ‘cholent‘ or carrot stew, was turned away because the Bloomberg administration wants to monitor the salt, fat and fiber eaten by the homeless. … Richter said that over the years he’s delivered more than two tons of food to the homeless.” The NYC mayor says he’s not planning to reconsider the recently adopted policy.

I worked on an Air Force base closure in Kalifornia some years ago. By Kalifornia law, the buildings on the base – up in the high desert (homeless pop. = zero) – had to be evaluated to see if they could be used to house the “homeless”. The state inspectors determined that the base housing did not meet the minimum standards for the homeless.
Base personnel were highly offended by that.
