Save Our County Home

Chautauqua County (NY) considers abandoning its historical responsibility to the elderly, selling off its County Home, abdicating to the market: privatize, forget about the social safety net, give in without a fight to cold-calling real estate hucksters. Is it the case that the only voices standing up to local government's potential capitulation are Labor, the friends and families of unions? It becomes apparent that the sleazy effort to privatize the County Home is also a direct attack on unions, decent wages - as speakers note. Thus the effort to sell off the County Home is a double treachery - against the poor, the working poor, and Chautauqua County's ever-shrinking middle class. snowshoefilms nerak yoryevrah
