Elderly man with prostitute under bed loses housing subsidy

[Liberal_in_LA]

Authorities say a man living in a suburban Philadelphia assisted-living facility has lost his housing subsidy after officials found a prostitute underneath his bed.

Uri Monson tells The Intelligencer in Doylestown (http://bit.ly/1cpH33U) the man, believed to be in his 70s, paid prostitutes using profits earned from peddling alcohol to fellow residents.

Monson says the man was a "more mobile gentleman" who went on booze runs for his neighbors.

The incident was reported Thursday after county commissioners authorized contract extensions with private facilities housing former residents of the closed county-owned assisted living facility

3. So, the government decides that this human being no longer deserves to be able to afford shelter.

Food...shelter... Better stay worthy.

Governments are supposed to exist for the benefit of people.

6. I don't think it was the prostitute so much as the seller liquor.

Or at least I hope it was. I'd hate to think they're kicking an old man out because he wanted to get laid.
