8:47 pm
a much higher minimum wage workers at mcdonald's wendy's domino's pizza and more will want not the job getting. the look at the federal 'd minimum wage is one create $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 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 didn't 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
8:48 pm
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 so this is 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
8:49 pm
really deal with it in this society which is couples we view them as. this whole as a group that falls 'd into $22.00 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 expensive 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 adds pass to $10.00 an hour that's the president is promoting for. something to get one minimum wage
8:50 pm
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 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 a 1000. because it's so nice you know we devised. a single national formula based on existing government guidelines.
8:52 pm
8:53 pm
for everything you have to. sort of on one of those. 3. things. you will lose your money. so here the road 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 from the shelter is that all of us are. child and family services is going to be involved in their getting their kids away i mean work 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. family is run out of resources and they're
8:54 pm
not able to stay in their apartment anymore stay with family or stay with friends or stay in a hotel i mean. 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 is. you know as a 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 semen 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 having for the 1st 6 months of his life were stable and then i lost my job which intel lost my berman. but for you know for after that 6 months we
8:55 pm
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 in this that. you know i got another job and i was paying for hotel rooms you know 2 weeks out of each page i could i just got really expensive really pricey so you can either just like all right well i'm going to keep doing it i'm going to join i'm going to get up or going to work. and with having a kid a child with special abilities you kind of you don't really get much down 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 stay weak 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
8:56 pm
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 and 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 and the 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
8:57 pm
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 him. today industry faces in the millions of you elicit in the you know the the daily
8:58 pm
creations. are all about making money making profits in some. big corporations international markets import export do you imagine the number of chronic diseases that are out in every community today it is not due to new viruses all new microbes that's not true so it is due to environment. and say you know the momentum discipline of this sort of muscles are really just accumulate could only come in the day you see new to beside. us the plebiscite ask if the so food industry is successful it will create more jobs it will create more value added it will create more growth so i don't see why we shouldn't also fight for the interest something into st outset that we have regulation we want regulation i was the industry and if we don't behave as any aspinall to that's fine.
