NYC migrant crisis: Roosevelt Hotel in New York is expected to close

I suspect the migrant -immigrant experience in " OUR democracy " has not changed much ( mostly a nightmare ) since American socialist author Upton Sinclair wrote " The Jungle " at the turn of the 20th century. NOBODY -citizen or non-citizen - gets THE JOB in this country unless some respectable or not so respectable Corporate America capitalist can exploit you while THE SYSTEM will endlessly oppress you. No surprise that at the end of Sinclair's novel the Lithuanian young man, Jurgis Rudkus, joins the Socialist Party. Really the book was not all about rotten meat ! In general ,the homeless crisis in " OUR democracy " is on collision course with landlord-capitalist PRIVATE PROPERTY rights.
