        Because comfort is good for rich people, but not for poor people. Jesus said that from the top of a pyramid.

        I agree with Ben Carson too many people of color have made living in govt housing a generational pastime. When does it stop.

        I wasn't trying anything. Generalizing saying people of color making living in public housing a pastime is dangerous rhetoric

        Ben Carson has NO business running HUD. His appointment is the definition of Trump's presidency, ludicrous.

        Ben Carson thinks pyramids stored grain. He’s a moron. Yet the NYT dutifully types up his nonsense.
