Are you willing to rent out a room in your home to an illegal alien if the gov pays the rent?

What could go wrong?

    I have refused to work someone who was not legal...it is not legal for me to work them.  I would not rent to anyone in my home....legal or not. But the illegal part makes it certain.

    I don't have a spare room, the place is crowded already. Legal or not, alien or not, I'd need to hang anybody extra from a hook in the ceiling.

    Your "don't have a spare room" reminded me of the Russian "communal apartments", a subject not related in any way to the subject of this post (up to four pages yet!! But then the whole post is based on conjecture, so why not?).

    Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end...

    Anna Matveevna came to this communal apartment in St. Petersburg in 1931, when she was 8 years old.

    Actually,  the question is based on an idea that the Mayor of New York is proposing.  Not just something I made up.  He is wants to do it.

    The MAYOR of New York is proposing this plan....it is not made up. He has authority to try and get this into effect.
