This country needs a lot more talented & gifted students to excel and if we are to compete with China and others. Instead, now a lot of these NYC school kids will instead be waiting while the teacher calms down the trouble-makers/unmotivated kids instead of behind challenged further academically. Like you said, it's leftist progressive dogma. To what extent can the incoming mayor reverse this?

Are you offering to volunteer your place to live? A lot of things, like slavery and public beheadings were done 400 years ago, which aren't done today. Any other arguments you can provide to make your case rather than revisionist history?

You asked a question, I tried to provide an answer to it which is reflective of the common viewpoint.

Who will pay for all the social services required? The existing tax paying citizen via increases taxes and lowered standard of living. We already have a shortage of housing, overcrowding in schools & major budget deficits. No, open borders are not the answer - no country has/allows them because of the reasons above.

"I am in no way advocating that employees should be allowed to post or disseminate any sort of hate speech" -> you want freedom of expression yet support what others will claim as "hate speech". If hate speech is something that someone disagrees is with or is slightly offended, then there's no freedom of expression.

This is not a good thing. The government (funded by tax payers who work and produce) is paying people while they are not producing to the economy. Someone pays for this, through taxes and lowered value of the dollar/purchase power for those who do work. There is no free lunch.

Also - you say 2 million is OK... what if it were 20 mil, 200 mil who got paid while not working. Who would pay for this?

LeBron James criticized for saying Rockets GM 'misinformed' on Hong Kong "It's sad to see him join the chorus kowtowing to Community China & putting profits over human rights for #HongKong," Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., tweeted.

Profits first
