a the, i mean everyone is chasing the same dream. everyone is doing the same thing, having to get a job, making it rich, making the savvy money that, that, that, that, that was the most popular person in the world. no body the

world doing the same damn thing. it's like watching the high school all over again . i believe in creating awareness about homeless. because if we don't pay attention to it, it's going to overwhelm the population. and when that happens, where's the money going to come from? seriously, we're, we're, we're, we're ready is what? 70000000000 or something like that. missing in money are democracies falling apart and we're worried about small things and what you should be worried about, the bigger problems that are right in front of our faces. instead of turning the blind, i love you somewhere around 80000 people that are on house. here's the problem that being

a house may come in different forms because there are some people that aren't even here. cars, there are some people that are pretty much going from one living room to another living room wherever they people are allowed. you know, friends, me allow them to come in and, and have a roof over their heads on a temporary basis. but then you also have people that live on the streets, shearing. los angeles, right now there's, there's a, as we speak, we have a homeless own being done right now. the accounting hominy on house before leaving on the streets. so we don't have the exact numbers yet, but he's going to be high. the numbers have increased from last year, even though that more is being done. or at least that's what being told. to the point that the numbers shifts last year alone. the amount of all homeless rose by 12 percent in california, right,

is the rent is due again. hi. this is dan. hi. the rent is too damn high. the number on the, the, the, the rent, the man on the. 8 we turned in over a 115000 signatures to get it the initiative on the ballot to expand control that to be on the california ballot in november of 2024. and the apartment association is trying to its opposing this and trying to stop a and trying to stop us. we also delivered over 732000 signatures to the governor of california, governor newsome asking him not to oppose this measure. how are they trying to sell people? so what they're the,

what the california apartment association is doing is they're trying to put in initiative. i'm with valley, which basically says that a top case on the same, to not put their own initiative on the ballot to expand rent controls or anything around housing. so they're hurting tenants. and also a charts cost clinics in $45.00 different countries across the world. and they're trying to strip into something non profit simply because they don't want to confirm the my name is gina. i am a small mom landlord and i was a bit of an issue when they're calling landlords all green. you don't hear our side of the story. i have a very little money. i have a mortgage homeowners insurance, and they wouldn't be and,

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 just paid them. wow. wow, sense of dollars to move out? it's not there. where is our side of the protection? should be mad at the government and to the government to pay their rent. why should i have to take care of somebody take care of health care complaint at the grocery store complained that your medicine is, why is it just the landlord? me landlord. so i'm thinking about landlords. i have, you know, a couple units there worry as well because with that high when school with corporate driving the, the rates are to keep up with it. so nice affecting 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 land. unfortunately, the fix, the small businesses, the affect, the small landlords. so we 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 want to take their properties as well. the housing rates are going to keep going up, like if you go to a gas station and buy budweiser 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 raise 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 there never pay the rent. somehow. somehow i feel like criminals run the city. i really do.

my name's walking by the golf. i'm 51 years old. i'll be 52 in april and been homeless off and on us 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. what the economy just deteriorating is it, is there's not a way for the way just 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, it's in the gates a lot of people's efforts. i

mean yeah, don't get me wrong. i don't look like i'm alone. and i got this, you know, tell them one to get on through the disease, a 180. 0, much a year. my son's on doesn't look like i need to be honest, honestly. know what cost of living at this moment or subtract them. uh yeah, no matter if your worker 40 r o job, hourly job. you know me. if i have to know anybody out there and get all of these histories that down. so we'll, i've been out here in california and hollywood for probably about 10 years, about 10 years, and i have yet to get in and i've been on the list to get housing for like 3 years . i've got a criminal, i don't get a criminal background. you know, i've got a very expensive criminal background look at 19 fillings. i'm a record dude. i'm not trying to. i mean, nice for you. there's not i can't get any decent things up. so i'm just trying to

get, i'm trying to get funded, get a job with metro. right. and i was doing the investment or thing that they got going around. i can't get my foot in the door for this shit. the same life is coming over. we don't, we don't hear from you really now do you mind we might be, i might be around, you know, like a bigger one is that we can just make it a wireless. but he said he was at the end of the low. you go, what do you do full leaving? oh, do. i'm going to go to school. i go to long beach city college for this study. i'm going for film and the screen writing. i'm trying to get a degree in the screen writing and uh, the one to develop my own, my own screen place for production. i have good work. i went and award for my spring place in 20,

for one screams like that. i wrote in 2021 from pen america and i'm trying to do something with the skills and talents that i have for screen writing. thank you. hi, my name is mailed to the correct number, full phone executive director of the shower of whole and like the name says, we provide mobile show us to people who are experiencing homeless those same los angeles. and what we do is we take them to mobile shortlist, they can see over here the various different locations. we have approximately 50 sites in los angeles. we pocket in locations where it's close to folks like experiencing homeless us. and we offer them showers even for what the city like los angeles, that's very little public infrastructure. when he comes for you to use a public chavo lelona that through so fall on

a 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 me use the bathroom. but when he comes to show us a lot of, i guess if it wasn't 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 buzz 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 oh, it's good. there's always going to be a hutch down. they have fox, our 2nd. yeah. yeah, it's always good. we get a lot of our homeless and my god apply for a shower to you. yes, i'd be a good shower. the differences, economic differences between groups, race groups,

particular are huge. and these 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, put in security is, is lack of access to healthy, put lack of access to flu. and a lot of our communities of color don't have access to healthy food. they just don't. so you see those, this bear with me right? there that any quality whereas you go to well do, neighborhood, 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 here. most

of them don't speak english or we have here and you can 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 band 3. and a lot of them are very fragile, they elderly. so this is a 9 o'clock we, well, 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 at 12 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 would pick yesterday, so you're not gonna make buying any, any fresh or uh, products done here. and they do serve with the people they serve it. and i say

we're 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 in here and actually pick what they like to, to take instead of giving you a bag of food the most likely you're not going to like we allowed them to make several choices here and take food that they love to cook take a fresh look around as a life kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality. distortion by power to division with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse really once a better wills, and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented as fast? can you see through their illusion going underground can in syria, as a sovereign state has ceased to exist, can the western back h t,

s, and other groups establish some kind of central control and, or what ultimately determine the face of the syrians of homeless for them is always the rear. i have $805.00 is only about $0.50 in my life for them enjoy. holding for 6262. you've been homeless for a while. continue for many years. see 10 years. so i'm just gonna go right ahead and poke. you have to pray that hey, fish a deal. we're right here to help with only getting some really low. god bless you 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 the that they 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 the fuel cause we're right now. we'll go through what was the last? no. how can i do i have i just leave my hand right now. thank you. bye. now the you said tanisha

the time on the 1st time this this where do birthdays are a bad day. all right, man, that he yeah. the the i love

you enjoyed that. thank you so much lady. do leave here. i do. i do. this is not heroine. that's a i went to a doctor this morning. why did you come from effect? you work to interior design or the was it worth coming here? yeah. hard able to see off the flight to afford a place here. not many people can wear it to what to do. like if you are not able

to afford your partner, like what you're doing is security or 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 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 the think. $3500.00. the one bedroom. it was way across the street. the apartment. yeah, they just they just building. they just opened them up. so that's a one bedroom, the $13500.00. that's what we have to deal with. so the dentist takes everybody along here, the whole community and all the prices go up with they have people like that

building these things up. 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 a long so they can't. well, the next coming up relation apparently can live with 10 people into an apartment in 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's the se, se day, but we showed him 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 messages using the shelves. are you thinking about this? well, that is the right thing. one of the houses where they are 4 people die room, so nearby job is the same way we met them. they're, they're still they're putting up with the boss last week um um and gave kelly. i think her name of the day or the give her um what is that the, the not, no, not a good thing. have you guys seem to be fine and we, i want to see this about time after for 6 people then already, you know, they lower it in on. yeah. yeah. i know, i really don't know and, and then people go up missing and they don't even try 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 and she's supposed to 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 service today and that way. so let's say do 1520 percent of what your income is that by your rent, up in the 30 a month, your income you. as soon as i said that since i have time to try to move out, most people in my apartment, i do a medicine crap. they're more and more people become seamless though they see none of the co bags and then they'll buy it doesn't make me 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 they spend 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 all the 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 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 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. oh, you're looking for low read our movies. because people come out here fall, a dream says their 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 a $1000000.00 house to me. and i'm, i'm working on manifest man. i made a visit a minute as of 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 countless not fail. even just guilty. you know that you're walking into a supermarket and you can buy or food or you can do it 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. now they're not as compassionate as

people think about the sense the subject looks good and then for the now i look good. thank you sir, but you people are always people good or for in the room. right. all depends on the day how it is going to look bad in kenner. that's the right one to do a dinner isn't center 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 mean taken away. so it's very difficult. i know people that have retire with the kind of 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 are 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. 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 . i look forward to talking to you all,

that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except we're so shorter is that conflict with the 1st law show your mind, anticipation. we should be very careful about our personal intelligence at the point, obviously is to create a trust rather than fit the job. i mean with the artificial intelligence, we have somebody in the team and the robot must protect his phone. existence was on the

street. the nice the, what so striking for me is this contrast. but in california, where are some people that so rates and other people are barely making. that's a, that's a call cost of whole united states. they, there's what about 4 or 400 or 400 people that have all in the morning and from then all of us together, you lose a, there's a gap is becoming smaller or is growing all it's growing. i don't know, they only want a handful of people controlling everything they want to keep people under their under this under your son's control people's that's a.
