Why can't New York City deal with rats? I don't understand. I live in Seoul, South Korea. There are probably many Seoul citizens who have never seen a real rat in their lives. In Seoul, if you throw away trash that contains even a little food, you will be severely punished, fined, and opened to neighbors. If you put food waste in a separate bag in front of your house, it will be collected at dawn. Recycling is done thoroughly. If Seoul mayor had neglected as many rats as New York, he would never be able to participate in politics again and could be arrested immediately after a thorough investigation.

Keep in mind, food is always out in the open. Bagels just sitting on carts, containers are always left open, the floors only where you walk are clean, but under desks and behind desks are filthy. All near the food you eat. Don't get me started in the stories I heard about the old Shea Stadium. Doing the IT work there, I've been told underneath the stadium were filled with rats.

One reason they're not coming down is they cause automobile traffic and congestion, which is exactly what they want so they have the excuse they need to introduce the congestion pricing plan (TOLL), which is cameras that read license plates at every major intersection. This is all networked together and controlled by artificial intelligence, which tracks you and keeps a record of how much you drive in the city, then you get hit with a bill later where you're charged by the mile, or by the block, or however they do it. Those COVID-Shacks allow mass surveillance, data collection, and massive generation of revenue... all with your manufactured consent. They also do away with a lot of parking spaces which forces you to pay upwards of $24 an hour for a parking garage. Unfortunately most New Yorkers are too dumb to understand or resist this agenda, but that's why your rent, gas and groceries are getting so expensive. Think about it. Unless you're wealthy and can afford the tolls and parking, or can afford an overpriced UBER ride, you have to take your chances on the subway. Also, don't forget what a fire hazard those shacks are and how they are a haven for vermin. Some nut already went around lighting them up and caused many to flee their apartments and were homeless for days afterwards.
