Give the homeless a posh pad and they'll want a job.
At least that's what the Doe Fund thinks.
The non-profit fund responsible for the "Ready, Willing and Able" work program for homeless men will be running the new 400-bed shelter in Brooklyn. The shelter will cost the city about $8 million dollars a year to run, or about $20,000 per bed. But with the Doe Fund buying 36-inch flat screen TVs, I would seriously question its ability to spend the money wisely.
