    Just amazing - the government literally going to bat for the sake of concert goers who demand hotel rooms.

    Can’t imagine working through drug addiction and getting clean enough to be given a hotel room, and then eagerly trying to find some form of employment to become stable, and then your case worker is like *What do you think about spending a few days in Aberdeen…? WIth the Taylor Swift concert and all… There’s a need for this room for someone else…"

    Lol what.
