<p>Look, it just comes down to this: I was paying dues to support a place where people learn, not a place where homeless people feed themselves. That's another non profit.</p>
<p>This influx of squatters and homeless people is why I am no longer a dues paying member. If that's what people want noisebridge to be, fine, but it wasn't why I was paying dues.</p>
<p>Id say about 90% of noisebridge is used for learning, but I've seen that number dwindle slowly over the years...</p>
