Dear Dr. Bones,
| Shelter drops lunch program ‘It’s terrible. ... They’re just squeezing the homeless.’ By Richard Weir Thursday, February 2, 2012 - Updated 4 minutes ago A city-run homeless shelter in the South End has scrapped its free lunches in a controversial, cost-saving move that is forcing the needy to hike as far as two miles for a midday meal. “It’s terrible because you got to go out in the cold and walk for miles just to get something to eat. They’re just squeezing the homeless,” said Alexander James, &c. &c. |
How, do you suppose, sir, a fruit of the J School like Party Neocomrade R. X. Weir acquires such hot poop? Can the Fearless Voice of Louisdayhicksville have 'moles' amngst those down and out in Paris an' Roxbury?
This riddle is especially hard to guess, because, as his freelordship elicited from one of the vile drones runnig the trough in question, "“We did not cut the budget. We’re just going to put it toward a more effective use [of the bucks we stole from the taxpayers]." That means (does it not?) that there cannot have been any public announcement. _Ergo_: somebooby musta dropped a dime.
It is fun, though fantastic, to guess that the FV-LDHV sends inspectors around on a regular basis to ascertain that the Bad Poor are still using their bathtubs exclusively for coal storage .
Happy days.[0]

[0] Well maybe not so very happy at Hooverville an' Rio Limbaugh.
In the holiday spirit of "¡So many pedestrians, so little time!" allow me to point out that there are still an awful lot more free lunches where that one used to came from.
