facing the system. until the broken system tax cuts aside for people like me. i'm a sociology professor the symbol was much present thought in local it. was a ball when he's ready came while it. i got tired so i shot him. a committee. cause if i killed him in broad daylight.

lodges ten years in prison for that. it is a. so. i said i've got it set up. the eyes of i've got it right i'm going to. lead this call alexander fifty one years old and i'm homeless and. since two thousand and eight. there is

a r.'s a dollar there are. going to have a lot of that to us is the dollar subject on a good day activates the hunch but does the ac hours up into eighteen hours straight up and down up and down on my feet. arbet i'm sure. it was a music teacher. i'm jealous over. my small sixty cigarettes a day. a frightful shit. i'm in the force troops but suit up of the system that is all about profit to me it is human nature.

coming from a family of eight and poverty when i was going to school i used to have to wear two pair of pants still to hold one pair of pants i was poor i was so poor but i wanted to do it must have out of the whole of poverty you know i wanted to make a better life for myself i didn't like qualities. i hate it probably made a vow to must have the money ever got to the place like a make some money interest whale i would do that.

very nice people did a lot of shit don't. see two or three themes to all of us some may see me because i'm going to end them. out on the. people who don't like journalists like you know me. as it was on this whole these are the numbers is going to be in the as many.

different people who are here for different reasons. lost a job. whatever the excuse is they come down here to get themselves a job. i think the fundamental problem that we all face and then whatever situation the pharmacist alike are felt like a community like a lot like a family a lack of support around you. say listen a lot like a lot of other american cities. and some ways it's so very segregated.

got a lot of people that it's not enough to pay for a place to live. or poor neighborhoods. all the areas that we go to are where a lot of people almost stay. this used to be that they almost can't appear. out of the city the city toward. a few people with their tents caught on fire and they. do it. i wish there were a better word. being home us because i think that's not the only problem that some people have. whether you have a home or you're not there are nice people and sweet people and they have a home where you are jerks and there are people that are. aggressive whether you

have a home or you're not you still people still like the same. cloths . all over tribal courts and the jungle carts. and you have lice. she can rise much special bulls. but i usually eat pizza because the slices to the cheap i don't see a lot of. life's price fiber as an older guy you know it would be sweet and he's the kind of fool to eat. my vegetables because the vegetables have item is in the you know i'm going to hell and i'm going to c.v.s. every day for. a century fifty you know i'm not.

going to go through. the list. city. police. is one thing that police made me feel closer to the best. political. team in the finite. limit. to say ok just. let me have. a medium size t.v.

like this you need the size to. get to three or should. fish this. like you know when i have to use the baffle. it doesn't work that way you know. it doesn't fall out of trouble with. the bessel right in u.k. it used to baffle. on the internet and. we have all the sounds.

of. the baby shower for. her. i think whatever. i was volunteering with a group that had food drugs and i jumped in and started volunteering at a table and taking care of my jeans stuff a friend of mine here in st louis had a salon and she gave me some really expensive shampoo and it was like you know forty dollars a bottle. i gave it to this gentleman and i said here this is a really expensive shampoo and he said thank you but i got i don't know what to use it and it was just so embarrassed and ashamed i was so excited about passing out shampoo to someone but i didn't think it was far enough that they would have no

where to use it and so i got to thinking that if we make food trucks and you know for put kitchens inside of a truck i can only put showers inside of a truck and kind of started the whole process from there that they could see you couldn't see give it to the judge about about a week this. could go on the basis. of. the gruesome plot thickens the saudis now admit jamal khashoggi died in their custody after an interrogation that went wrong turkish media claim they have evidence of intentional murder nonetheless trump declares he's not going to walk away from saudi arabia will there ever be justice to show. them the way to. total room go to.

i believe that north korea will be ready to nuclearize very soon there could be well saying that link lehman about some of the nuclear weapons and materials to be taken to russia and disposed off there and then on the basis of mutual trust the united states and russia could help north korea in the energy sector for example build a gas pipeline or railway tracks the. prosecution will need to be. called where you. just read the fines. by the number one place you do i mean. political pressure on the. security industry knows what the bundled up business models used by american corporations.

and the solution. in association with. it is just simply deleting. an investigative documentary. ghost war on oxy. when i was ten years old i discovered i could seen a little bit and didn't know harmony so some guys in the neighborhood told me how to harmonize and we formed a group my brother nine

a couple more guys got out and we did the local talent shows in the schools and in the nightclubs in memphis. blues a local star talent you know in the indian city of memphis. police told everybody else's stuff you know the guys who already had records we were so good and we saying their stuff you know so today went out to come out and work so hard so they gave us the first segment of the hour and we said we've got. to step in you know it would be so on just like in syria. and then i'll do i'll believe three years i was impossible. to say something like the song is all heard.

oh somebody but you speak. of them somebody needs to be able to believe in it you know you believe. i have people. on top of my. bottom line. is going to be pretty tough. you shall feel silly take. it from my son in law on top.

of this is sunday breakfast rescue mission where the largest free service provider of meals in philadelphia where the only free service provider breakfast in the entire city. with their four hundred meals a day no matter what always. that includes breakfast lunch and dinner. mood the rude

mood and also we serve about one hundred eighty all every single night we just need a place to sleep mood will move every single bed in this room that currently has a pillow on it is actually a physical person who has reserved this bed tonight so as you can see we really are almost completely full. sun. rescue mission is one hundred thirty nine years old so there were actually quite a few homeless individuals in philadelphia at the time it was even way before the great depression yet there was a very large homeless epidemic in philadelphia. we don't receive any government funding so that means that we're completely independent of the strings that would come along with accepting any money from the government. we do this because

we don't necessarily want the strings but also if there is giant budget cuts that there were a few years ago we actually don't get affected because we have our entire revenue stream from individuals who are donating us money instead of. through something that is so easily attained changeable like. policy. so in the past few years in america we've had quite a difficult time with passing our budget that means that we've actually had a few weeks where our government shuts down because. we just can't get it passed. that does become quite a problem for people who are relying on that money.

bush.

and his wife. of the mentally ill will go home that really has to. come from the city or a twenty billion dollars surplus. has a couple from the. only think i. know. i live on the streets. but you know off. the wall some of my fellow citizens. this is. in the right place to give people wall street because at some point

you have to help people help themselves. a lot of it is just the unfortunate fact that most people in philadelphia are only a ballot two paychecks away from home so that means. you don't have a job for four weeks and then all of a sudden you're going to be homeless because you are literally living from paycheck to paycheck you need that next job in order to continue paying rent and if you don't pay rent then you will be evicted. from my perspective i really believe that the route to homelessness in philadelphia is the fact that. there is a very high population below the poverty line. a

lot of people if you lose two paychecks that's not going to be a big deal but in philadelphia that is an extremely big deal for about forty percent of the population. anyone can become homeless a lot of people become homeless because of some sort of catastrophic event in their life maybe medical bill was just too high or a fire in their house maybe a divorce or something like that could could potentially cause homelessness. in the world where the o'boy. are you know there's a you know there are of that so i wrote again and over the top person.

i was born version does your college graduate. have two masters at a bachelor's degree. i'm dressed really is in school. i was embarrassed to seventeen years of my life. smolar terry. my wife passed in their breast cancer at six thousand six a part of god with her. i got very lonely started a forces started committing suicide except. for jean's seen drawings on a daily basis. and developed

a very bad drug habit and mental problems behind. but i'm not sick enough for them that's all foreplay. and the drug programs don't want me because of my mental health history i see while. well of course alone that actually become extremely violent when i have to be. done more to get my life back together i'm tired of the on the street i've been doing this over a long time i really want to help i had a lot of suicide attempts and get. back to god with extra each them all aspects of god. i'm trying to be the best person i can

be a second at a time a david souter was decent i'm human. sometimes i mess up on the mistakes you know why i need help and i don't share the about myself shop most of mossad's i've tried i understand what they're going through and i can make their life a little bit more comfortable become the. face of the homeless and have a platform in the us for the homeless and then let them know that is really all self is less a selfish thing because it's really not about me anymore it's all about you know what can i do to make life better for somebody else having that experience myself there's a place surveyed sandlin for. just a thought.
