| My gynecologist is on this street. Flushing is a dark place. I grew up here. Some dark things that go on here on a regular basis: Exploitation of immigrants. Don't pay them at all and threaten to call ICE. A famous Korean restaurant Kum Gang San was forced to pay millions in a lawsuit for exploiting their foreign staff. They made their employees pick cabbage at a local farm on the weekend to make kimchi... https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/24/nyregion/judge-tells-kore... Abuse from landlords. I have friends who grew up in small apartments with multiple families. One family to a room. Corruption in the police. I don't think her brother is crazy. It's a real thing. My favorite restaurant also served as one of those Hollywood trope Chinese gambling dens. My dad got beaten by a pipe by some drunk whackos in a parking lot trying to break up a fight and ended up in the ER. When we went to the police station, the restaurant had deliberately erased the video footage. The officers couldn't help us, it ended there. The dark prep school industry that preys on poor families kids whose only chance at escaping poverty (or making their parents suffering worth it) is standardized testing. Multimillion dollar industry. Accountants who do shady tax things and should be arrested and jailed. Thanks for ruining my parents retirements and those of all the other immigrants who don't know better but trusted you. This illegal birthing place where a woman tried to murder new parents and their newborns not too long ago. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/21/nyregion/queens-stabbing-... Not to mention all the foreign investment in Flushing right now... Rampant exploitation but that's why Flushing has some of the best and cheapest Asian food in New York City. :( If you saw Abacus, the documentary about the Asian Bank and felt sympathy for them, I heard they built their wealth as slum lords. |
