9:04 pm
what the california apartment association is doing is they're trying to put in initiative. i'm a valley which basically says that a top kids on the same to not put their own initiative on the ballot to expand right control or anything around housing. so they're hurting tenants. and also a chart cost clinic in $45.00 different countries across the world. and they're trying to strip to something non profit simply because they don't want rent confirm the my name is gina. i am with mom landlord, and i have a bit of an issue when they're calling landlords of liter. you don't hear our side of the story. i have changed very little money. i have a mortgage homeowners insurance and they wouldn't be and,
9:05 pm
and i couldn't even barely waste what last 4 years. i couldn't raise it $5.00, but yet i had taxes to pay. i had insurance to pay. i had maintenance to keep up and i had to pay them. wow. wow, sense of dollars to move out? it's not there. where is our side of the protection? they should be mad at the government and to the government to pay their rent. why should i have to take care of them? somebody take care of you care, complain at the grocery store, complain that your medicine is. why is it just the landlord? no, most me landlord. so i'm thinking about landlords that have, you know, a couple units. they're worried as well because what that high winds cool up with corporate driving the the rates of the hard to keep up with it. so it's affecting
9:06 pm
them as well. but the fact of the matter is that the ones that are controlling and pushing pull the high range are the corporate landlord. unfortunately, the fix, the small businesses, the affect, the small landlords. so we're here to let them know that, you know, if we bring rank control to california, it's a positive thing moving forward because they're going to be able to not being terminated by corporate landlords that wanna take their properties as well. the housing rates are gonna keep going up, like if you go to a gas station and buy board wiser. and the price goes up a dollar every day because because like somebody steals too much budweiser from that store, you know, that's just the way that it goes. you know, and originally they've raised the price up of things and places where it goes missing all the time. to cover it, that's probably why the rent is getting so high because half the people who live are never paid to rent. somehow. somehow. i feel like criminals running a city. i really do.
9:07 pm
my name's walking mother golf. i'm 51 years old, will be 52 in april and been homeless off and on since 2006 and where do you live? right here in this truck? so why is it so weight? oh, well, there really isn't a way to get to on top of things when the economy just deteriorating is it? is there's not a way for the wages to catch up to what the prices are for for rent a person is trying to get to it. maybe you have a studio apartment here in this area is going to be at least $1500.00 a month. and even with some help 1st for move in. and it's, it's a little bit, uh, it's a little, there's a little bit more to it than just uh, you know, making a decision. uh, because the economy is its the gates a lot of people of efforts

9:11 pm
a public chavo, let alone a bad throw. so fall on for the full. so sleep on our streets. it's a constant struggle of looking at which gas station, which coffee shop will let them just let them use the bathroom. but when it comes to showers, a lot of i guess, different one for us only have access to shot was maybe once a month for a lot of folks. it's going into a bathroom at a place like a coffee shop and taking a bus back out of a sink. so that's why it's so critical and, and that's so much the man for our services. how does it to you? oh, it's good. it's always good to have your the hutch down. they have hot showers. yeah . yeah, it's always good. we get a lot of our own lives and my god apply fresh shower to yes, i did the shower the differences. it could nomic
9:12 pm
differences between groups, race groups, particular are huge, and he starts on the very beginning, their lack of, uh, being able to have a good education. let's talk about, let's say, for example, food and security is, is lack of access to healthy, put, lack of access to food. and a lot of our communities of color don't have access to healthy food. they just don't. so you see those disparities right there, that any quality, where do you go to? well, do neighborhoods or neighborhoods of, of, of white folks. you'll see that they are, they have better jobs, better paying their more resources. so yes, a racism, a place, a very important part on the economic status, whether you're going to end up homeless on the street or not. this is known as the mcarthur park union district of los angeles, this one the most underserved communities in los angeles. a lot of immigrants are
9:13 pm
here, most of them don't speak english or we have uh, tears. you could see a lot of seniors and we have people that struggle to put in the table. and people have very little resources. most of them actually want for, for several blocks here to, to come to the pantry. and a lot of them are very fragile, they elderly. so this is a 9 o'clock we what we have done is we set up an appointment system so people can actually sign up and, and have an appointment instead of them being in line for hours. what's happening is that before prior to we having an appointment system, people used to be here until midnight. i literally spend the night here waiting for us to open. so we decided to do an appointment system. today we're going to be providing groceries for $400.00 people. these are fresh vegetables. they were picked yesterday, so you're not gonna make buying any, any fresh or uh, products done here. and they do start of the people who serve it. and i say we're
9:14 pm
very excited about being able to, to serve the community. what we do here is we set it up like farmers market style. so people are able to come here and actually pick what they like to take instead of us giving you a bag of food that most likely you're not going to like we allowed them to make several choices here and take food that they love to cook. the
9:15 pm
there's no end in sight over how you're going to continue to destroy the earth. is the case of the med, most of the people. i tried to go to the gym, but i'm certainly not ready to fight russia. this is also a pursuit. this is the 3rd world lunacy re washing press for so the funder line likes to say we have the tools while we just start with stability and business deals, which allow me something living on that we have very close propaganda. you know a price here in new york. i think we don't know the aftermath any time that you're not allowed to ask questions, you should ask all of the questions. the more questions ask the better the answer is will be homeless. for them is home is the we're, i have a problem is only about $0.50 a month. right. where i'm enjoy old
9:16 pm
a 6262. you've been calling this for a while. continue for many years, say 10 years. so i'm just people who like for example, you got to pay the, hey, fish a deal, where am i right here to help along getting some really low versus the, the gap continues to grow. you know, we saw back in the eighty's and ninety's the early, the early part of the century here, where we saw an attack against the middle class. there is the more middle class, either you'll have what you don't have. so to say that you're in the middle class is a fantasy because he doesn't exist. we have people coming to our food banks that have jobs, and some of them have good jobs, but they can not make ends meet foreclosure. we're right now,
9:17 pm
we'll go through the ones the hello. hello. hello. how can i do i have i just leave my hand charger but not the. no, no, no, no, no. on the 1st time this this where do you have a good day or a bad day? all right, man. yeah. he yeah. the
9:18 pm
you enjoy it. i want to can you hold on a 2nd the right you enjoy that. thank you so much lady. do leave here. i do. i do this is not here on that's a i went to a doctor this morning. why did you come from effect you work with interior design or
9:19 pm
the was it worth coming here? yeah. pard, the higher able to see of the flight to afford a place here. not many people can went to work to do like if you were not able to afford your partner. like what did you anticipate here looking at it? yeah, i mean, possibly people could die on the beach. people get sick, they get diseases and mental illness insecurity. the numbers are staggering. we have approximately 10000000 people in california that are risk of becoming on house. and part of the reason is because
9:20 pm
the rates are just very high. people struggle to make ends meet. some people are working to 3 jobs and still not enough because of the cost of living also has increase. for let's say $3500.00 for one bedroom. it was way across the street apartment. yeah, they just, they just billed and they just opened them up. so that's a one bedroom, the $13500.00. that's what we have to deal with. so the data takes everybody along here, the whole community and all the prices go up with. they have people like that feeling in these things. but why then does it work to be, sir? if you're not able to afford the leaving the right there is people, they can't co habits, he can't get along so they can't. well, the next coming up relation apparently can live with 10 people into an apartment in
9:21 pm
california. and people have to live with a lot of people. so there's a lot of problems familiar, sexual assault on the finger problems. so they said it's a, he se, se, se thing, but we show them physical evidence of him doing that. i even have a text message from me and my roommate talking, speaking about how he threatened her life. i gave patch the text messages i gave the body to text him is do you think, michelle? so you're thinking about this? well, that was the right thing. one of the houses where they are 4 people die room, so nearby job is the same way we met them there. they're still there. put it up with the boss last week. um um and gave kelly. i think her
9:22 pm
name of the day or the give her um what is that the the not, no, i'm not saying anything. have you guys seem to be fine and we, i want to see this about time after work for 6 people didn't already know they learned on. yeah. yeah. i know, i really don't know and. and then people go up missing and they don't even talk, sit and see nothing about it. you remember the one with the rabbit? she had where miss and i was like, oh, she had went to the hospital or with the jail as you folks come back and nobody knew where she was in need of them line. they found her face and you're not too far from the shelter. so how you didn't, they don't care about where about nothing. all the program i'm going to program and all sorts of plus is little bit like says today and that way. so let's say do 1520 percent of what your income is that by your rent up in the 30
9:23 pm
a month. you can view it as soon as that, as soon as i have time, i'm so tired of move out. most people in my apartment and do a med and crack are there more and more people become seamless, though, there's none to the co bags. and so by dividing doesn't making better as the governor. so the level to lower the rent. we know that the numbers are high and there's a lot of money that comes in. but the money is blown away and varies. we see very little come either with that, you know, so this been a lot of money. you mean government government? yes. there's been a lot of money and the labor very little rent has just really taken off on the
9:24 pm
restrictions on how to rent have changed. they want you to have a deposit of, you know, same with sometimes what you put 3 months down or prove you can pay 3 months when you, you know, these, these are things that a lot of people wouldn't qualify for with good jobs. so they've made it so hard, is that a person with a pretty well paying job cleaning, cutting right here. and there was a time, i mean, it was a while ago, 253 years ago. you could be a starving artist here and, and have a pretty fun life. it wasn't. maybe you wouldn't have a big savings account, but you'd have a safe place to live here without food. you would have a car. but now people are choosing, and we're talking about people is 40 or a week, jobs are choosing to buy groceries or pay their rents. and we're talking single people. i can't imagine having
9:25 pm
a family what that would entail. so it wasn't always this unapproachable to live here was actually quite the opposite for a long time. the hey guys, come to hollywood, get some of the money. this is 50 k and 1000000 looks like like guys 1000000 a year. the sell a baby for me. you're looking for low read our movies because people come out here. father dream says the dream. i would say i am rich for me i'm. i'm, i'm on my way to be rich next year. i'm a buy
9:26 pm
a $1000000.00 house to me. and i'm, i'm working on manifest man. i made it as a limit of as a right now already body for me. i'll look at it. i visualize it. i know the address. i mean, that's what it weighs about. i mean, when you see the houses, you'll see me and it is lend his house for me. welcome to welcome to hollywood. welcome to have a welcome to welcome to dreamland. for james, i'm through the, i mean, no, honestly, it's probably hard to live over. it is hard. it's hard to drive down the street and see this. and i think people are either going to be propelled, to have empathy and do something or possibly inches shut down. it's hard, hard to go in every area, every neighborhood, everywhere and seeing and can't move. when not feel even just guilty. you know
9:27 pm
that you're walking into a supermarket and you can buy or food or you can do and you can live, you have a home, you know, the, there's no kindness in any city or say in regards even in places that we deem liberal, you know, california is not very liberal about this, you know, they're not as compassionate as people. think about the steps the subject looks good and then for the now i would think so, but the people i always people good or for in the room. right. all depends on the day how i can
9:28 pm
fit in going to bed in kenner. wanted to do a dinner isn't the same or we're through so there is different factors that may affect our seniors. and most important is, is that the safety nets that existed, they being taken away. so it's very difficult. i know people that have retire. we cannot retirement checks that they're getting cannot keep up with a cause of rent. so now they living in their carts after working all their lights and, and yes, they are certain programs available that was subsidized for some of the housing. but not everybody gets it. this is why people i sold these harden and they have no faith in the government because the government has stopped working for the people.
9:29 pm
the amount of people that are more discussed with politicians and politics and political parties has grown in huge numbers. people just don't trust what they say . they say a lot, but the labor very little or nothing. the russian states never. i've side as i'm one of the most sense community best most i'll send send the same assistance. must be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on russia routing and split the sports net, keeping our video agency roughly all the band on youtube tv services for the question, did you say
