government is not the solution to our problem government is the problem. will be our 1st priority usually donnelly's presuppose there will be no compromise . one of the points that we really felt was important to get across when you're talking about cause and effect is priorities if nobody's making money on it not a commodity then it has no value and it shouldn't. it isn't
12:34 pm
a priority of the federal government so housing that was just from about people that was not a commodity that was just a ballet being up to their responsibilities of the federal government to ensure people have a clean d.c. a fun place to live that's not important anymore that's not i value. your term for walker bush william jefferson clinton who saw the water bush dishonest iraq you say obama do solemnly swear i told you on trial do you solemnly swear. the world makes sense for the work of the general wages of living standards of working class and poor people the city customs or declined since the late seventy's. the numbers of people who need housing and grow because of the growth of the population the supply is not close to the to nearly the same extent so somebody is going to get squeezed out and some of the most people the moment
12:35 pm
some people over the country have been squeezed. so now there's a new public housing so the shelter system is like a public housing because housing is not treated as even the writer of the title meant which it should be either country as pope is this one. and order for us to get. and be right back to society and company office to try to resolve this issue it's gone on far too long. it's a fundamental right. having food and fish oh i think anybody care. take

12:38 pm
almost this is the answer that if we push people who are being homeless and being mentally ill that they're going to cure themselves and be off the streets when in fact it just becomes a cycle. tearing their hair it. seems. like. i have right trish the subway. is the best. you can give it. a chilling. i have 00000000 is better with me they were great on the cell phone or on the strip

12:44 pm
world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see of an. earlier. you know i find myself today i know i don't look at but i found myself in a home state and you know my homelessness is not just a building i'm home is within my body because i don't know am i making the right
12:45 pm
choices and i don't live i don't know it's almost amazing just asking you i guess and makes what i need to be still and be all right where i'm claim on the safe side you know i'm not that they are doing things it's going to cost me my home that in this manner you know and i don't understand how a calling you would have a job in my axe murder or whatever. i want you have a chance if. you want to 1st i was actually attacked by a guy from behind and then he hit me in the face and inching choked me around my neck or survivorman. everything then december 13th i was hit in the head with a rock for me high they actually caught that guy couple what is later to a week i actually in the phone into a seizure due to that and my she was going to his spot was a little bit come back and check on me because i was laying out here by the hour. it's known as a body of knowledge in in the year and it's it's more dangerous for women the world
12:46 pm
is more dangerous for women in that. they get lost in their in their. overall capistrano armistice i mean everybody's heart breaks for their children 1st of all and rightly so and there is the veteran then there is the mentally ill by us do resist specific population only women that are having there is specific needs to are we going to listen to enough so you know we made it a priority and by that we pushed through in it any beds available to them or to listen to a year ago there were hardly any beds available for them and it's an unsafe for place for women to. tell all augurs to not walk in the street a lot at night in a dark neighborhood that's the sort of imagine that you have no work to go or no
12:47 pm
work to argue and something at. the. in the. bulletin on this is an income inequality in a good way to figure out which side of it you're on is whether your county pine for h.b.o. or stealing is a nationwide push workers calling for a much higher minimum wage workers in mcdonald's wendy's domino's pizza and more long walk on the job today. the look at the federal minimum wage is one created $938.00 under the fair labor standards act ok which was in response to a 1000000 people wandering our nation looking for jobs it was a sailor and after the depression. the congress got together and started to you know say well we should set
12:48 pm
a standard ensures that if somebody puts their 40 hours in a week they can afford the basics so. it makes sense and makes sense to me it makes sense to you so we take that in a brace that could the problem is they never index it didn't think so they just keep picking this number out of the year and those has of congress fight over debate over it and go. back and forth and so. you know maybe get raised a dollar or maybe it's $0.75 whatever so we sort of started this problem backwards you know we now have $3500000.00 people experiencing homelessness and nation and what we could tell that house the homeless. there's tremendous efforts to try and deal with the fallout you know. some more successful than others some different approaches like housing 1st get off the streets and then start dealing with them you know it's one we believed in that's a new organization says 989 so you know that's approach we. and i used to look at
12:49 pm
this population as. who they are the breakdown the veterans. recently released people out of the penal system single women single women with children substance abusers alcoholics. really really all the different factions but now we stood back and looked at the folly of that approach and realize that in order to really deal with it in this society which is couples we view them as. this whole as a group that falls 'd into 2 factions those who can work and those who can't work so we walk away with this wage 77 dollars in the quarter and 'd but i i live. in america and anybody who's lived in america's travel anybody who's traveled is
12:50 pm
travel to someplace what's more expensive than where they came from and the travel someplace with less expense right now the government uses the concept the one size fits all. this is they keep doing it's like 70 court for everybody so whether you live in washington d.c. or whether you live in the harlings in texas they're going to set it to 7 decor right now there's talk of there is a need to $10.00 an hour well the day that adds pass to $10.00 an hour that's the president is promoting for. something to get one minimum wage homeless worker off the streets of washington. at the same time that $10.00 an hour wage is going to hurt small business and will america and make no mistake most of america is rule they're trying to is to push around. pig in a square hole and they've been doing it over and over again and what happens is it's a very soft mork approach to our nation is made of
12:51 pm
a 1000 economies so in 1907 we devised. a single national formula based on existing government guidelines.
12:52 pm
12:53 pm
and it. can. be very are. bombarding the wolcott. during this interview a bug and. not are you good t.v. . oh you wouldn't. want to put in the police ringback either you could help me with it if you. read we could be sure the ground floor and the little more of the. 3. cars that was drinking before innocent. little. you would be the one in. all. so here the road home we have a family show for
12:54 pm
a women's shelter in them and shelter so one of the big fears that our families have when they come down to the shelter is that all of us are. ever services is going to be involved in their getting their kids away having worked very closely with. the c.p.s. . we work very hard to reassure families that that that's not how it works their families are also subject to the whims of whether it's economic instability or family instability or health problems families run out of resources and they're not able to say that apartment in the more stay with family or stay with friends or stay the hotel. but a lot of times by the time the families that walk through those doors they've exhausted all of those resources. how are you getting so wet child. yes so we have this huge playground there's. you know they have the ramp
12:55 pm
for all of the kids the stuff like that and they still are still. they have this grassy area over here we try to keep the kids away from the gate just because of the semen on because this is an inside a shelter we are sliding in the playground for the kids and stuff like that. i've been on and off homelessness since of being for the 1st 6 months of his life we were stable and then i lost my job which entailed lost my birman. but for you know for after that 6 months we did pretty well you know we stayed with friends here and there we stayed with family but it sank i kind of started to feel like i was a burden these people you know because then they have to deal with my kid having as little fits and less than the others. you know i got another job and i was paying for hotel rooms you know 2 weeks out of each paycheck and i just got really expensive in the prices are you getting you're just like all right well i'm going to keep doing it i'm going to do it i got to get up i got to work. anyway
12:56 pm
having a kid a child with special abilities you kind of you don't really get much scouting time expression when you're single parent you don't at all you're constantly on the go on doing this doing that picking up is picking up that is. so you resort to of course a drug that makes you say weak. there is a word that surprisingly i got off it by myself i didn't go to rehab or anything i just kind of kicked it i've been clean for 3 months. and we've been in. there are about 150 beds in this large storm area. for families who have small children it will be like if it's a single mom in a small little one or 2 year old will share one of these small little bunks. and each family is allowed one of these toads per person so
12:57 pm
this has to be able to fit basically all of your earthly belongings and. let's not a lot of space as you can tell. it's tough for families. and one of the great frustrations here in salt lake is that there's a substantial lack of affordable housing and so that's one of the barriers that clients have is finding a place that they can continue to afford after our assistance and clients a lot of times face other barriers to getting housing whether it's on their criminal background or they have evictions from prior apartments and so it can sometimes be really difficult for clients to find a place to live that will accept them with their background or with the funding from their own home. to help them get out of the rut that they're in.
12:58 pm
