I Should Eat So Good!

[Ozarks Tom]

You don't suppose some people are getting rich over this "crisis", do ya?  Notice the mention of a "No Bid" contract.  Just guessing, but it's against the law for a government agency to no take bids on any purchase.

New details have emerged about the staggering sums of cash Massachusetts taxpayers are forking out to pay for the state’s influx of illegal immigrants, with vendors charging an eye-popping $64 per day to feed each person, according to a new report.

The new report by CBS News reveals that vendors are charging $16 for breakfast, $17 for lunch and $31 for dinner per day for each migrant it feeds – as the total cost of the crisis is expected to cost hardworking taxpayers $1 billion.

One vendor, Spinelli Ravioli Manufacturing Company in East Boston, was awarded a $10 million six-month no-bid contract to provide and deliver meals, reports CBS, citing records.

I never in my life needed $64 a day for food!!!!
So why give the illegals prime food?

The governor of Michigan is asking people to take illegals into their homes. I bet they aren't going to get any money to help feed them. Times are already tough for a lot of people, they're just barely making it in a lot of cases, and then they're asked to take in people they don't even know. Crazy!

Who says they are getting prime food?

Without reading the contract, we have no idea whether these vendors even have any infrastructure for preparing food. They could just as easily place a daily order for 1000 Big Macs, then deliver them in the back of a pickup truck or van. Lunch mission accomplished.

I am betting that most of their initial investment in that business consisted of bribes for the contract.....and if you want to find out about the food, no doubt they would be happy to feed you for free, and anyhow HOW would anybody prove you are NOT a wetback if you did not provide ID? .... ...Joe

Ya think? lol.
Check out the gov't contracts by the company mentioned in that link.

Defense Contract Totals in 2020 Count:3,603,454 Dollar Amount:$421,753,292,925

Actually, with a few exceptions their menu and prices aren't all that bad, but that's beside the point.

I'm sure there's a better way to handle it, although that would require some smarts, effort and aspiration. Hardly the qualifications for public office, right?

It's not their money that they are spending on this frivolous bunch of hogwash so they don't care what it costs.

Why give illegals ANYTHING except a free ride back.

I have long contemplated the idea of setting up huge buildings like aircraft hangars with long lines of pedal powered generators so that wetbacks and other offenders can be hooked to the grid and work off their fines and cost of incarceration by contributing energy to the lives of ordinary citizens, prior to deportation...  .....Joe

No matter what they're getting, they're getting it for free. As I understand, it's the only reason they're coming - free stuff w/o working or paying.

Cut off ALL freebies, prosecute anyone who hires them, ship ‘em back over the border. Doesn’t matter if they do want to work, they’re here illegally, using up our resources when we can’t take care of our own, committing crimes, bringing disease. I believe bringing illegals here is possibly the worst thing the Dems (and RINOS) have ever done to this country.

To me, this insane open borders policy is a clear exhibition of their disregard/dislike of their country, especially those who have taken oaths to support and defend it. There's no rationalization for what's going on that overcomes the reality of what the end results will be.

In the perverted minds of those who would trade the safety and economy of our country for political power there's a deep sickness. Hypocrites and bottom dwellers all of them.

Denver’s apparently overspent on migrants illegals. Not laying city workers off, just cutting job hours to zero.
Also scroll down past the ads to the next article below this one. They’re asking every agency “from the police department to the animal shelter to collectively cut $180 million from the city budget”, while they spend another 100 million on real estate.
