Emma’s Lament
‘Give me your tired, your poor,/Your huddled masses / yearning to be free
“The New Colossus”
Emma Lazurus
give me your poor but preferentially your rich whose bids will raise the going price of the city’s real estate
give me your hungry who work for starvation wages at fast food places or labor in fields of pesticides causing cancers not covered by Medicaid.
give me some Mexicans like Carlos Slim, billionaire and principal shareholder of NY Times
