You must particularly want ill be your wife pounding on our. Best as i think. The 100 housing rally. On green power. Will grow by is one of many. You know if theres one homeless person in the country its a bit of a you should not have a Civil Society a rich society in which people have to sleep on the street earlier big i mean thats just you know. Government is not a solution to our problem government is the problem. And will be our 1st priority. These presuppose there will be no compromise. One of the points that we really felt was important to get across when youre talking about cause and effect is priorities if nobodys making money on it i not a commodity then it has no value and it shouldnt it isnt 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 and so our people have a clean d. C. A fun place to live thats not important anymore thats not value. Your term for walker bush William Jefferson clinton who saw the water bush has drawn into iraq Hussein Obama do solemnly swear i told john truong do you solemnly swear. Or it 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 seventys. The numbers of people who need housing and grow because of their growth in the population the supply is not to the to nearly the same extent so somebody is going to get squeezed out and some of the most people who are low income people over the country have been squeezed out of the. So now theres a new Public Housing so the shelter system is like a Public Housing because housing is not treated as even the writer of the title meant which it should be the country has both uses one. And order for us to get. And be right back to society and company as you try to resolve this issue its gone on far too long its a fundamental right like having food good fish.

Source seems to. Be. One of my kind of. And its one. Its considered. Just general right actually the u. S. Doesnt accept. Universal declaration its explicit most. Of that there are 3 parts of this civic and political right. Sort of social and economic. And theres cultural. And theyre all are. Doesnt just dismisses the cultural community. Rejects. Ringback politicians have concluded that there is no answer because the answer requires resources i dont believe thats true i think that housing is the answer homelessness that you have to have Supportive Housing yet were not willing to prioritize that as cited in the crazy thing is that were paying for it anyway we jail a homeless person is San Francisco it cost 140. 00 a night and thats 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 could just people who are being homeless and being mentally ill that theyre 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 right. Away. Is the best. You can. Give it. A chilling. I have a place to stay stay with me there were great. The cell phone or on the strip. Oh.

I guess you know were going to talk about more about. You know jobs are not really needed you know the part of us locked down people assume millions of millions of people to use in their job would have something material to impact on the fortunes of the economy as a whole but no it only affects the surface plumbs deep as a. Matter of fact its a great ad. If youre in the banking only and you see stocks trading higher and bank stocks looming higher workers are needed taxes are needed when you can. Her money printer go burn the only. You know i find myself today i know i dont look it but i found myself in a home state and you know mom homelessness is not just a building im homeless within my body because i dont know am i making the right choices and i dont live i dont know the source that amazes us asking us and makes what i need to be still and be alright where im claim on the safe side you know im not that they are doing things its going to cost me my home that in this manner you know i am i dont understand our calling you want a job in my area and its murder on whatever. I want you have a chance if. You want to 1st got out i was actually attacked by a guy from behind their lane he hit me in the face and inching 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 couple with airs later to a week i actually in the phone into a seizure due to that and my family was going to his spot was a little bit come back and check off on me because i was laying out here by they are. Its known as a body of knowledge in in the year and its its more dangerous for women the world is more dangerous for women in that they didnt have the get to last in their in their. Overall tapestry of ominous news i mean everybodys hog breaks for their children 1st of all and rightly so and there is the veteran and then there is the mentally ill by you. There is a specific population called women that are having very specific needs that are we going 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 its an unsafe place for women to. Tell all our daughters to not walk in the street a lot at night in a dark neighborhood thats the sort of imagine that you have no work to go. Or know what to do and something. Or were. Way. Too early to know you just being told in the quality of a good way to figure out which song to beat your on is when youll call many pints of each the o. E. C. D. You should like workers calling for a much higher minimum wage workers in mcdonalds wendys Dominos Pizza and more will want not the job getting. It will look at the federal d minimum wage as 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 to say that 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 anything so they just keep picking this number out of the year and those has of Congress Fight over debate over it and go do that and that and it made it back and forth and so. You know maybe get raised a dollar maybe its 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. Theres 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 its one. Believes and its an Organization Says 1989 so you know thats 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 really deal with it in this society which is couples we view them as. This whole as a group that falls into 22. 00 factions those who can work and those who cant work so we walk away with this way its 77. 00 in the quarter and d but i i live in america and anybody whos lived in america has traveled anybody whos traveled is travel to some place which is more expensive than where they came from and they travel some place with less expense right now the government uses the concept of one size fits all. So they keep doing its like 70 court for everybody so whether you lose in washington d. C. Or whether you live in a harley engine texas theyre going to set it to 7 decor right now theres talk of there is you 10. 00 an hour well the day that adds pass to 10. 00 an hour thats the president s 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 theyre trying to push around. Pig in the square and theyve been doing it over and over again and what happens is its a very soft mork approach to our nation is made of a 1000. So you know we devised. A Single National formula based on existing government guidelines. Ok ok. Very are. About the logo. T. V. You can hear people talk and. That was how you. Oh you learned do you. Think let me ringback see do you can help me with it. Regularly you have to. Learn a little more. Here. 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 i. Am a service is going to be involved in their getting their kids away i mean work very closely with. C. P. S. We work really hard to reassure families that that thats not how it works their families are also subject to the whims of whether its economic instability or family instability or health problems. Family is run out of resources and theyre not able to stay in their apartment anymore stay with family or stay with friends or stay in a hotel. But a lot of times by the time the families that walk through those doors theyve 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 stuff like that and 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 them inside the shelter we are slidin the playground for the kids and stuff like that. Ive 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 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 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 hear just like alright well im going to keep doing it im going to do and i got to get up i got to work. With having a kid a child with special abilities you kind of. You dont really get much down time expression when youre a single parent you dont at all youre 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 isnt that surprisingly i got off it by myself i didnt go to rehab or anything i just kind of kicked it ive been clean for 3 months. There are about 150 beds in this large storm area. For families who have small children it will be like if its 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 tow its her person so this has to be able to fit basically all of your earthly belongings in it. And thats not a lot of space as you can tell. Its tough for families. And one of the great frustrations here in salt lake is that theres a substantial lack of Affordable Housing and so thats 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 its 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 theyre him. Somebody. Yes lets see yes. I was on the floor some days in my bathroom you know trying praying. When i would. Sign for west to die worms i was having children fever i didnt have any sense of space or smell from the most young women or girls would you. Recently she had most of the old world is used to. That one time when he was on the grounds of the research. I have heard and. Push myself but it is for me in the 58 ill go to. I am i staggered this is the kaiser report i guess you know were going to talk about more and about you know jobs are not really needed in other part of this Lockdown People assume that millions and millions of people doing their job would have something Material Impact on the fortunes of the economy as a whole but no it only affects the surface clubs the president s matter fact its a great opportunity if youre in the banking elite and you see stocks trading higher
