so hunter of. the times. we have been listening battle is over the many. believe that our housing profit if. it is taken initiated. at last we're getting a jump ball flight live. in this particular one i'll be your wife pounding on. this is i think represents the 100 housing brawling deal 9. 100 pounds of the family. just built royalist want me to.

you know if there's one homeless person in the street it's a bit. you should have a civil. society in which people have to sleep on the street or big i mean that's just.

government is not the solution to our problem government is the problem. and 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 i eat it's not a commodity that. it has no value and it shouldn't it isn't

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 the responsibilities of the federal government to ensure people have a clean d.c. from 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 live ragusa and obama do solemnly swear i told john truong do you solemnly swear. the world would make sense with the work of the general wages of living standards of working class and poor people the city constant 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 up to the to nearly the same

extent so somebody is going to get squeezed out and some of the most people the moment 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 so because housing is not treated as even the writer of the title meant which it should be the country is both 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. that's

a fundamental right like having food and fish oh i think anybody care to. take a look at the universal declaration of human rights. as the peoples of the united nations have in the charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights in the dignity and worth of the human person and in equal rights and. to see that it's a debate that it's time to get any. sources and to. get money. out of my ghana. and that's when. it's considered. just general right after the u.s. doesn't accept. universal declaration of it's i'm supposed to reject

most. of that there are 3 parts of this civic and political right. sort of social and economic. and there's cultural. and the wrong are. doesn't just dismisses the cultural community. rejects you know. politicians have concluded that there is no answer because the answer requires resources i don't believe that's true i think that housing is the answer homelessness that you have to have supportive housing yet we're not willing to prioritize that as siding in the crazy thing is that we're paying for it anyway we jail a homeless person is san francisco a cost $140.00 a night and that's about what it costs and some ill fairly nice hotels outside of the city yet we insist on believing that criminalization of

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 a right direction some way. is the best. you can give me. a shilling. well i have also stated that here with me there were

a great. piece of or on the strip. there you go guys to ensure most of the world here makes it home. as well. as if. you can go to the city or county and get a map that shows all of us all over the you know county. and there's over 400 miles along along they go all the way down to the freeway and they sit there ideas that are feeling goes away or tropicana somewhere. where they can wow. you know this is this is someone who. is very warm very rude you are sure you know the music you see the known this was you are sure. i don't think. i'm tunnels in las

vegas ears. should. say. my name is guy and we were. around 10 years ago and strays and she was in the same situation and she didn't know what to do about them. i disaster she won. by saying when's the best place. to stay in hotels in brighton and he gets me to me go across the street and you see me in we came back he was gone so i would stream he was walk by cosmo. just you can find. to read. now as 10 years ago. you know i haven't drank in over 30 years. that we've had our months we've had you know. i make for 6 to 7 mr security and.

just not enough to say. we do better in the summertime because he gets to. get to all. the good side me and everything a really good bad when going to charge stuff and dollars to shower. who fly aside just a few dollars or. it gives me you know. he had all of us just. seen him a girl. this is. a rest in. knowing. that. exists is not nice. you know

a lot of people are one. or. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. tyson nation or community. are you going the right way or are you being led. direct. what is truth what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us

in the depths. or a maybe in the shallowness. during the year we talk about all those crazy problems out there and then during the summer we deal with solutions that's right so lucian's and today we're going to be talking with oh big nose sue of coin floor dot dot you kate. callistus but it's quite the best i'm not mr but just tell the speech that i'm from the eat eat eat fish or she marched out or i'm going to be cheerful. for them. it's been able to support. me.

if i knew. about it because. he punched a much needed hungama somebody or some. way you know off i myself today i know i don't look at but i find myself in a home state and you know my home as this is not just of building homes within my

body because i don't know am i making the right choices that i don't live i don't know for certain needs us asking us and they swear i need to be still and be alright with claim i'm a slave. no i'm not out there doing things is going to cost me i'm out on that in this when you know am i going to stay over calling one of john in my area and it's murder or whatever. i want to have a chance. when i 1st got out i was actually at. backed by a guy from behind in their lane he hit me in the face and gnashing choked me around my neck or survivorman. there they were in december 13th i was hit in the head with a rock from a high and they actually caught that guy a couple what airs later to a week i actually in the go into a seizure due to that and. he was going to his spot with little me come back and check off on me because i was laying out here by the ark. it's known as

a body of knowledge in in the year and it's it's more dangerous for women the world is more dangerous for women in that. they get lost in the in their. overall tapestry of promises i mean everybody's breaks for their children 1st of all and rightly so then there is the veteran then there was the mentally ill by you were the resist specific population only women that are having there is specific needs to a week long to use and do 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 of gotos to not walk in the street or at night

in a dark that's the sort of imagine that you have no work to go. or know what i had when something. or were. were. in the us is being told in a quote to good way to figure out which song to beat your on is with yoko many planes on h.b.o. also to. me shit like bush workers calling for a much higher minimum wage workers at mcdonald's wendy's domino's pizza and more will want not the jobs. they were look at the federal 'd 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 the same and after the depression congress got together and started to say well we should set

a standard that ensures that if somebody puts in 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 good the problem is they never index it didn't think so they just keep picking this number out of the year and those halves of congress fight over debate over it and go do that and that and it and it back and forth and so. you know maybe get raised a dollar maybe it's $0.75 whatever so we sort of started this problem backwards you know we now have $3500000.00 people experiencing homelessness in this 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. believes in us and the organization says $989.00 so you know

that's approach we are. and i used to look at 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 this group that falls 'd into 2 factions those who can work and those who can't work so we walk away with this way it's $77.00 in the quarter and 'd but i i live in america and anybody who's lived in america has traveled anybody who's

traveled is travel to some place which is more expensive than where they came from and they travel someplace with less expense right now the government uses the concept of one size fits all. so they keep doing it's like 70 court for everybody so whether you live in washington d.c. or whether you live in a harley engine texas they're going to set it to 7 decor right now there's talk of raising it to $10.00 an hour well the day that that's passed a $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 ruled they're trying to push a round. peg into 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 a 1000. so nice you know we devised. a single national formula based on existing government guidelines.

think. we very are. about the logo. t.v. you can hear people talking. that i you. oh you were me do you want to let me ringback see do you can help me with a. treadmill even if you have. one of them. here.

so here their own home we have a family show for women 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 a sudden child and family services is going to be involved in their getting their kids away i mean working 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 the or family instability or health problems. family is run out of resources and they're not able to stay in the apartment in the more stay with family or stay with friends or save 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 child. yes so we have this huge playground there's. you know they have the ramp

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 single men on because this is the men's side of the shelter we are slide 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 were stable and then i lost my job which intel lost my burman. 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 his little fits and less than the others so 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 really pricey so you getting you're just like all right i got to

keep doing it i'm going to do it i gotta get up i gotta work. anyway having a kid a child with special abilities you kind of. you don't really get much talent time expression when you're a single parent you don't at all you're constantly on the go on doing this doing that picking up this picking up that. so you resort to of course a drug that makes you say wait. there isn't 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 one or 2 year old will share one of these small little bunks. and each family is allowed one of these totes per person so

this has to be able to fit basically all of your earthly belongings in it. and that'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 ends 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 the road home. to help them get out of the rut that they're him. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see that. no team. no shots no. action to help speed up. the well.

no there is to a. point your thirst for action. the sudden fullest and illegal takeover of the government by a small group. so rather than revolutionaries or soldiers could that small group be cool for relations when you have a tiny group of people who have all the power you have to have some means to make sure the rest of us don't get together and take it back. these are sacrificed some . places that capitalism exploited and destroyed for profit and left behind misery poverty environmental devastation and so you see things like voter suppression building more prisons you seem gerrymandering all sorts of undemocratic practices for wealth use of that world for well in this

world and there's no question that the code because. the pressures on lebanon as late as last week's deadly blasts which killed more than 150 patron left the port area in ruins a woman who lost her husband has been telling us how her family is being torn apart . i promised my son that i me and his that are going to be on his birthday and i broke this promise. ok. bettery sees this largest protest in modern history as the country's long time leader lines or a landslide 6th term in office. to grab one. should provide food or will the earliest i mean. i'm france reportedly says it will cost.
