For $6 million, they could have bought 150 mobile homes at $40K each, put them on a piece of state/city land and been done with it. Instead of that, or anything remotely similar we pay the same $6 million for 20 apartments AND have to continue to subsidize them forever. So now, we house a Cuban national (im sure if he was a US citizen they would have said so) in a $300,000.00 apartment that he pays $15.00 a month for and cover the rest of his needs through welfare.  

What is it about that scenario that just sounds STUPID?
