You know if theres one homeless person in the street its a bit. You shouldnt have a civil. Society you know which people have to sleep on the street. I mean thats just. Government gives not the solution to our problem government is the problem. Will be our 1st priority usually donnellys presuppose there will be no compromise. One of the points that we really sell is important to get across when youre talking about cause and effect is priority if nobodys making money on it not a commodity then it has no value and it shouldnt it isnt a priority of the federal government so. Housing that was just some about people that was not a commodity that was just in ballet being up to their responsibilities of the federal government to ensure people have a clean d. C. From place to live thats not important anymore thats not i value. Your term for walker bush William Jefferson clinton who saw the water bush has gone into iraq who said obama do solemnly swear i dawdled you on trial do you solemnly swear. The world would make sense without the work of the general wages and Living Standards of working class people the city constant or declined since the late seventys. The numbers of people who need housing and grow because of the growth in the population the supply is not known to the to nearly the same extent so somebody is going to get squeezed out and somebody you know most people the momentum people over the country have been squeezed out of the bottom. 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 is both is this one. And order for us to get. And be back to society and Company Office to try to resolve this issue its gone on far too long. Its a fundamental right like having food its finished. If i can find a big chair to. Take a look at the universal declaration of human rights. As the peoples of the United Nations have in the charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights in the dignity and worth of the human person and in equal rights. To see each other to meet that distinct and. Serious incident. And not at all with. One of my kind of being and its one thing. Its considered. Just general right actually the u. S. Doesnt accept the universal declaration of its own 6 because it rejects 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. The u. S. Doesnt just dismisses the Cultural Community in the rejects so as you know. 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 siding and the crazy thing is that were paying for it anyway when in jail a homeless person is after cisco it cost 140. 00 a night and thats about what it costs and some. 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 theyre going to cure themselves and be off the streets when in fact it just becomes a cycle. 30 down here it. Seems like. Whatever our nature if the subway. Is the best. You know. I have a place to stay stay with me are great. Or im sure it. Doesnt stay in action for most of the chair makes home. As well. As if. You can go to the city and the county and get a map that shows you all of us all over the you know county. And theres over 400 miles and log along they go all the way down to the freeway i donate it theres that if one goes along tropicana somewhere. Sure they can. You know this is this is someone who. Is very warm very rude youre sure you know the music going to be known this was using the issue. On the tunnels in las vegas ears. Should. Say. My name is guy and we were. Around 10 years ago and strays and she was in the same situation and she didnt know what to do and thats and that. Disaster she would. Say whens a best place is staying home hotel in brighton and he left me to me go across the street to get some meat in we came back he was gone so i was strange he was bought by cosmo. Just behind the scenes to read. Now is take years ago. You know i havent taken over 30 years. That weve had 5 months weve had you know. I make for 6 to 7 almost or security. Just not enough to say. We do better in the summertime because it gets to you. And get you all. The good side. Of the really good. Lingo the charged up dollars. They fly aside just a few dollars and. They gives me you know. It all of us just a girl. She had a big girl. This is the. Rest. And i say knowing. That this is not. Really is. You know a lot of people are one of the real. This is this. Seemed wrong when old rules just dont hold. Any you get to shape out these things become educated and indeed from an equal betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Shouldnt somebody. Just when they see it on yes. I was on the floor some days in my bathroom you know crying praying. And this time western got worse i was having chilling fever i didnt have any sense of snakes or smell from the most you know from my world you. Recently she you know sometimes old is used to. That when simon is on the grounds for research. And i have heard an. Illusion myself a couple of today from me in the 58 im going to. Go. Was. Was. Was. Was. You know often myself today i know i dont look at but i found myself in a home state and you know mom homelessness is not just the building im home is within my body because i dont know am i making the right choices that i dont like i dont know its almost amazes us axing us and makes what i did to be still and be all right we have a claim on the safe side no im not out there doing things its going to cost me a model that im this man you know and i dont understand or calling you one of john and my axe murderer or whatever. I want you have a chance. When i 1st got out i was actually attacked by a guy from behind and then he hit me in the face and inching choked me around my neck or survivorman. Everything then december 13th i was hit in the head with a rock for me hind leg i actually caught that guy couple would later to a week i actually in the phone into a suitor do that in my book. I was going to his spot was a little bit come back and shut off on me because i was laying out here by the hour. Its not everybody know it in in the year and its its more dangerous for women the world is more dangerous for women in that. They get lost in the in their. Overall tapestry of armistice i mean everybodys heart breaks for their children 1st of all and rightly so then there is the veteran then there is the mentally ill. You would lose a specific population only women that are having there is specific needs that are we going to listen to nothing 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 of gotos to not walk in the streets or at night in a dark neighborhood thats the sort of imagine that you have no work to go. Or no what do i do when something. Or were. Were. You know you income inequality a good way to figure out which song to beat your on is with your company planes on each of the o. E. C. D. You should like workers calling for a much higher minimum wage workers at mcdonalds wendys Dominos Pizza and more little walk on the job. It would look at the federal 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 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 to do 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 and 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 him off the streets and then start dealing with them you know its one. Believes and thats 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 substance 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 this group that falls d into 2 factions those who can work and those who cant work so we walk away with this way its 77. 00 and a quarter and d but 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 someplace 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 live in washington d. C. Or with harlots in texas theyre going to set it to 7 decor right now theres talk of raising it to 10 dollars an hour well the day ringback 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 d. C. 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 rule theyre trying to push a round. Peg in a square hole 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. Because its so nice you know we devised. The Single National formula based d on existing government guidelines. Ok ok we very are. Hoping that was. Key here you can hear people talk and. That was how you. Oh you were going to do you. Think let me ringback see do you can help me with it. There are already you have to. Move on oh. Here. We. Are milling. So here the road home we have a family show for a womens 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 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 i mean. A lot of times by that i mean 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 the 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 the mens side of the shelter we are slide in 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 to 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 can i just got really expensive really pricey so you can hear just like all right 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 picking up that. So you resort to of course a drug that makes you say wait 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 per 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 and the 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 in. Time of. The time called her ration to repeat the same mantra sustainability very important its accelerating transitions to sustainable prize board sustainability spain overmanned a more equitable and sustainable world. They claim their production is completely hamas. Because. Companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the damage is being done far away this is Something Else this must keep going dont even and i mean look. This is the move and news that we didnt even im strong seemed to be based on that understood the solution in.
