on that, you know, put in a claim to say no what was invested yet. what's wrong the, [000:00:00;00] the

take a fresh look around his life kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion by how of tired vision with no real live indians. fixtures, design to simplify will confuse really once a better world, and is it just as it shows you fractured images, present it is, but can you see through their illusion going underground? can the,

[000:00:00;00] the, i mean everyone's chasing the same dream. everyone's doing the same thing, having to get a job, making it rich, making the savvy money that, 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, it, 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 when you should be worried about the bigger problems that are right in front of our faces, instead of turning a blind item was are 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 are living in your cars or some people that are pretty much going from one living room to

another living room. whatever day people are allowed, you know, friends may 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, sharing those angeles right now there's, there's a, as we speak, we have a homeless out being done right now. the counting, how many on house before living 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 she has last year alone. the amount of all homeless rose by 12 percent in california run this the rent is due again. hi. this is dan. hi. the rent is too damn time the number on the, the, the,

the rent, the amount on the. 8 so we turned in over a $116000.00 signatures to get it initiative on the ballot to expand rent controlled 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 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 to and just the so what they're the, what the california apartment association is doing is they're trying to put an initiative on the ballot. which basically says that a top kits 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 house clinics in 45 different countries across the world. and they're trying to strip to something non profit simply because they don't want the my name is gina. i am a small mom, landlord and i was a bit of an issue when they call me landlords all greeted 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 cheaper and i had to pay them for dollars to move out is not

there. where is our side of the protection? or they 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 so much me, landlord. so i'm thinking about landlords that have, you know, a couple units. they're worried as well because with that high, when it's cool, with corporate driving the ran up the hard to keep up with it. so it's 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 pick, the small landlords. so we're 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 is 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 in 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 walk in mother 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 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, it makes, it's a lot of people's efforts. the mean. yeah. don't get me wrong. i don't look like i'm alone, and i got it, you know, tell them whines i get on through the disease like

a 180. 0 my hear 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 items and we i've been out here in california and hollywood for probably about 10 years about 10 years. and i have yet not been on the list to get housing for like 3 years. i've got a crew, i've got a criminal background. and then i've got a very extensive criminal background look at 19000 years. i'm over at the new, i'm not trying to i mean, nice for the, there's not i can't get any decent things. uh. tell him that just trying to get. i'm trying to get funded, get a job with metro right now. just 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. tell me

a girl. we don't. we don't hear from me truly now do you mind remind me of my being on june? no, no, you have a bigger one, says that again, just making a wireless but he said he was at the low. you go what do you do? full leaving? i'll 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 spring writing, i'm trying to get a degree and screen writing and uh the one to develop my own uh, my own screen place for production. i have to work. i went into work for my spring place in 22 for one screenplay that i wrote in 2021 from penn america. i. 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 cool, found an executive director of the shower full. 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 these mobile shortlist, like you see over here, the various different locations. we have approximately 50 sites in los angeles. we pocket in locations where it's close default, so i experiencing homelessness. and we offer a gent, them shot was even for what the city like los angeles, that's very little public infrastructure. when it comes for you to use a public, chavo, let alone a bad throw. so fall off the full, so sleep on our streets. it's a constant struggle of looking at which gas station, which coffee shop, so let them just let them use the bathroom. but when it comes to showers,

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, the to, oh, that's good. there's always going to get a hutch down. they have fox, our 2nd. yeah. yeah, it's always good. we get a hot challenge homeless that my god apply fresh shower to you. yes, i'd be a good shower. the differences so it cannot make 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, put in 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, 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. we have here and you can see a lot of seniors and we have people that struggle to put, put in the table and people have very little resources. most of them actually one

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 was 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 on here. and they do serve as the people who 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 here and actually pick what they like to take instead of us 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. the least russian states never as i've started as i'm sort of the most sense community. best of all sun set up the same assistance must be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin move. yep. mission. the state on the rush was creating a split from ortiz, full neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube, the fitness center. for the question, did you say steven twist,

which is the total is for them is always the we're, i have a problem is only about $0.50 in my right where i'm enjoy old a 6262. you've been homeless for a while. continue for many years, see 10 years. so i'm going to like to go ahead and poke. you have to pay the pension deal. where am i right here to help with only 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 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 ready to go through what was the last? no. how can i do i have i just leave my hands. i don't know. yeah. can you see i don't, i'm not,

i'm not here or not in terms of the this where there's a very bad day man that he yeah. the, the, i want i want to say the

right. you enjoy 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 with interior design or the was it worth coming here? yeah, pard and i are able to see of the flight to afford a place here. not many people can do what to do. like if you are not able to afford your partner, like what to do in the city, they're 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 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 building these things up. but why then does it work to be here?

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 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 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 already exist in the south? are you thinking about this? well,

that was the right thing. one of the houses where they are 4 people die. so nearby job is the same way we met them there. they're still there. what do you know possible since last week? um um and gave kelly. i think her name the day or the give her um what it says the, the not now in regards to be fine. and we, i want to see about time after one or 6 people that already, you know, they weren't in on. yeah. yeah. i know i really don't know and, and then people go up missing and they don't even try to sit and see nothing about it. you remember the one with the rabbit share with miss and then they was like, oh, she had went to the hospital or with the jail as you folks come back and nobody knew where she was and made them line. they found her date space and not too far from

the shelter. so how you didn't they don't care about where about nothing, all the program on the program. and so the plus is little bit like says today and that way. so let's say do 1520 percent of what your income is that by you read stuff in the 30 a month. you can use this or is that as soon as i had time to try to move out? most people in my apartment, i do a met in pratt and then more and more people become seamless though they see none of the co bags and then they'll buy it doesn't make it 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 out over that. you know, so they spend a lot of money. you mean government government? yes. they spend a lot of money on the labor very little rent has just really taken off the restrictions on how the rent has changed. they want you to have a deposit of, you know, same was sometimes what you put 3 months down or prove you can pay 3 months when you do, 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 in and have a pretty fun life. it wasn't. maybe you wouldn't have a big savings account,

but you would 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 with 40 hour 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 does 1000000 a year?

the zillow baby. tell me you're looking for low risk, our movies, because people come out here for the dream says their dreams. 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 met of as women, if there's a right now, i already bought it 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 local. now i welcome to welcome to dreamland. we're doing some on 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 play not feel even just guilty. you know that you're walking into a supermarket and you can buy your 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

we'll go now i look. thank you sir, but the people i always people good or for i like the room. right? the all depends on the day how it is going to look bad on kenner. dinner isn't the dinner we're through so there is different factors that may affect our seniors, and most important is, is that the safety needs that existed. they be taken away. so he'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 . there's no end in sight over how you're going to continue to destroy the earth. is the case for 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
