@Joe Costantino Or just the start. Wouldn't it be ironic if the neighbors were conserving water. Suffering so as not to have a high bill they may have a prob paying? Then they look outside. Yeah...this is in Venice...a beach side town... there's the whole Pacific ocean to cool off in! Remember... the whole picture.

@Gerrylynn Mako They can live on the outside part . I'm sure they will not like that .
If you plan to visit the L.A. beaches, DO NOT walk on the sand barefoot. This is NOT a joke. Where do you think these people hide their needles and poop?
Please, don't come,we don't need you. You already positive for the c-19. Stay where you at now!!!
Ramond Ferreal Thanks Captain Obvious
I used to do beach clean up. Only a prob around the piers as cigarette butts everywhere, Talk about gross, Effers can't even clean up their own sh*t. And straws. This was b4 the pandemic was a prob. I'll take "Things that have touched people's mouths" for 30, Alex! And I've seen kids play in that! Tourists. And the snack bars n eateries were still pumping them out while WE cleaned their mess so people would still WANT to go to that beach! Now it's changed,thankfully. Paper degrades almost overnight.
Yuck

Democrats care more about taking care of illegals than Americans
I can’t even be upset. People voted for these policies! They should love the results! 😒
@97RAVINEAVE it goes a lot deeper than that. you forgot 40 years of massive immigration both legal and illegal that competes for jobs and housing. and the massive free trade debacle where the corporations/wall street piggies stole MILLIONS of good middle class jobs from americans and made them eco-slave jobs in the 3rd world and pocketed the difference. the 1% money gangsters have forced a 3rd world economic model on the USA.
We get what we tolerate.
anna belle that’s a reasonable take on the problem except the Regan blaming,regarding Hospitals and mental health.That’s never been quite clear to me...
97RAVINEAVE good point...
They didn't actually. The "Democrats" are just latent republicans now. two right wing parties is what we have.
California is getting worse day by day, American dream has become American nightmare in California.
Nah... This is happening in Florida. I'm sure this is happening nationally. Trump's murica... Right?
You’re too kind saying only in California.
California homelessness and Child poverty rate are highest in entire country. Causes are regulations, lack of affordable housing, unemployment, poverty, mental illness and lack of needed services, substance abuse and lack of needed services. According to statistics 60 percent family of 4 median income in California is is $48,415, meanwhile in order to get by in California the recommend annual income for a single person is $74,371. If you had looked at the statistics you would have realized California is ranking number 1 in poverty year after year.
Hootan S. - if you think it’s “just” California, you’re mistaken and that thinking will allow this misery and inequality to spread across the US until the majority of people are in the streets and the US looks like Afghanistan. I live in Austin... homelessness and poverty is extremely visible here too! Yes, in Texas.
Cali & NY only those who make $250k or more can live comfortably......
Why don’t we just set up water and electric utilities and porta-Potties on the expansive property of LA mansions. They always say we should be ready to make sacrifices for society. First rule of liberals, “No sacrifice is too big for someone else to make.”
Absolutely, Hollywood 'woke' stars need to walk the talk and open their pools and homes
So what you're both saying is inequality has become grotesque. Its a humanitarian crisis.
Build tiny house communities. Its a start.
Well said!
So, just move them around like chess pieces until they’re in the perfect square on the board. The problem starts with addiction and mental illness and no idea, no matter how butterfly love it sounds, will work until you first create a serious, effective way to treat the illness. It’s like just putting a sick patient in another room and expecting them to be cured. I am a lifelong major depressive who was a junky and a drunk. It is rude, ugly self-destructive and tortuously painful. You don’t just wish it away with BIG ideas.
They have done that in other cities, not in there mansions but we have porter potties and power outside for them near where they want them to camp.
The LA homeless budget is $430M. Not enough, evidently. Of course, just paint "Re-elect Trump" on those tents and the city will remove them immediately.
That's genius! Just give them Trump 2020 signs to post on their tents, and the city will get rid of them. I love your plan lol
Good
They're stealing that money..none of that has ever gone to helping the public.
@@tellucas LOL. Did you think the "old way" was a good solution??? Out of sight, out of mind???

They let out inmates knowing they wouldn’t be able to get jobs (therefore money for housing) because COVID shut all jobs down. Did they want this to happen?
They new all the inmates would create social unrest.
Yes. Yes they did.
I ranted when it was announced.
No - they want complete anarchy
They had to release all the inmates to make room for the new prisoners, these dangerous criminals who keep their small business open to support their families and pay taxes, refuse to wear a mask, exercise outdoors, or heaven forbid attend church services.

Politicians are working hard let me tell you some more money money money 😜 USA border unreal what's going on drugs
They should be camping at Nancy Pelosi house and other politicians homes
I'm sure they have a red phone to their local cop station xD At the end of the day, the cops some kind of pets for politicians. Useful idiots which do whatever they are told.
manonYm yep did you see that guy that live-streamed himself taking a dump on her driveway? The Pelosipooper lol. He was picked up and cited very quickly despite the city district attorney previously going on record as saying that public urinating or defecating would not be prosecuted. Rules for thee, but not for me. Similar to her salon trip I guess. That being said I don’t think it’s the police fault. They’re not the ones writing these things into law. They are not lap dogs, most San Francisco city officials have thrown the police under the bus at some point.
Mike correct. This is on the Democrats idiotic policies. This is Newsom's fault .The release of felons, etc etc. GARCETTI is a clown. All politicians get paid during this Pandemic yet most of us are either unemployed or had huge reductions in income. 14,000 small business gone forever and 15,000 more just barely hanging on due to our idiot in Sacramento moving the goalposts constantly. Color coded bull crap he has conjured up, business open then business close etc etc Sorry but Cali is a bloody disaster!
They will be confronted by her own private paramilitary security force who will remove them quickly.
I would say that they should be camping at the White House, but thanks to the orange tax evader, the White House is full of disease.
City leaders refusing to execute the duties of their offices. They should all be removed tomorrow.

"Escape From LA"
movie becomes reality
Down and out in Beverly Hills.
This is proof that our government is a total failure when it comes to the homeless. I've lived in Los Angeles for 60 years and have never, never seen it as bad as it is now. Venice has always been dicey with the homeless and "free spirits" walking around. But now it is way out of control and dangerous. Quiet suburbs in L.A. now have homeless people with mental health issues. Yet when the residents voice concern and object to these conditions in their communities they get shammed by the left and Garcetti just smiles and says things will get better. And why should he worry. He and his family has 24/7 armed security protection from the LAPD, as well as many of the elites that live in this city. Yet we poor unwashed slobs have to put up with the results of Garcettie's and Newsome's policies that are ruining this city and state.
IM ASSUMING YOU DID NOT VOTE THESE PEOPLE INTO OFFICE , ITS CRASY TO ME THESE PEOPLE CONTINUE TO BE VOTED IN.
stfu Trumptard. Republiturds have ruined California long before the Democrats came along. Reagan set us on a path to ruin long ago
Keep voting BLUE.
@Dojocho yeah, but they didn't used to be this stupid or violent... fascism has taken them over
Paid the people to clean up the breaches and around the stores and apartments and old folks homes. Pay them to help clean up their area and the residents and out of stated people mess. $7.50 hr person for a area each day. It adds up after awhile. That is about $53 a week. Use $5 each day for food and water if you are not good with money or $3 if you are very good with money. For instance most places have free water so just buy the food ects. And so on. That Is not counting their own money from begging. I mean even good Samaritan could just put the money in a bucket guarded by those running the program to pay them for cleaning. This way the money is use for good and the place is kept clean. It's that simple. If they have enough cash they could up the paid to $13 or more an hour. Could even go from block to block around the city cleaning up and having the residents chip in a $1 into the bank for the project of keeping california clean and the homeless feed and clothes and shelter. You know a symbiosis relationship. Where both parties benifits from the other. What is a $1 anyways when your neighborhood could be cleaned up and looking nice and money coming in because people from outside of the usa wants to visit your beautiful cities and clean beaches.

This is caused by the high cost of property and rents. The idea that property will continue to rise in value to the point of being unreachable to the average worker is happening everywhere. Most people buying homes are so indebt because of the property any disruption in pay they can not recover. So go ahead and make excuses but this is what happens when we would rather give people credit than pay raises.
@@keithsherri9096 response to dead people, and Joe as well. First, while it is frustrating to see billionnaires not paying the same tax rate as a secretary making a lot less ,RICH PEOPLE are NOT THE REASON why we have poor people. I work at a huge university and first to admit, salaries are low because college degrees are unaffordable for the 66% of Americans who want them. Then we have the bottom third who never cared about school, never turned in homework and dropped out of 10th grade. They are working minimum wage jobs or living off welfare for life. Homelessness hits these working poor and it becomes impossible for them to ever make it. A subset of our students are adults who realized late in life that college made sense instead of postponing it 20 years ago. A college degree increases lifetime earnings by at least $1,000,000, and a high income is one way to avoid homelessness. My wife was born in Europe where college is tuition free so kids who want to study can. Sadly, even when its free a portion of people ALWAYS refuse to take the college path and get railroaded to a lower income path. Also kids today take majors for skills nobody want. We have too many theatre majors or film majors and 70% of these kids won't ever make it in that industry. American kids hate engineering and science so we have to import kids from India and China. The average salary for an Indian immigrant is $100,000 per year. Why Americans dont earn qualifications to take these jobs is part of the problem.

Was in Los Angeles in 2017. I had never seen so many homeless people in my life.
Try Hawaii. I don't know which is worse. The average home in Hawaii several years ago was $750,000.00. Most doctors there could not afford one, so you know the average Joe could not.
They have 'camp cities' too, Many of the properties have been purchased by the the super rich moving there. Supply and Demand. The rich demanded the gated communities in a paradise and the developers undercut the working people living in the area, took their property and made it happen for them. Tragic.

Anyone that thinks all homeless are addicts is an idiot. Most Americans in today's world literally can go homeless at anytime. A lot of people are almost there. We don't address the real issues in this country and we keep making the 1 percent richer while everyone else is barely getting by. I've seen people have jobs for 20 years a house cars and all and literally the company laid them off and they have nothing. So any person middle class which is most can be flat broke in one paycheck loss at anytime. We are only going to see the numbers go up after this pandemic while housing prices continue to rise along with food prices.
D Lo well I did say most of them are addicts. And btw I also seen people come to USA with nothing and make it to upper middle class. I also seen people born here and do nothing with their life. Sorry not my fault you didn’t experience American Dream. I did. No one helped me working 12hours a day now when people see how I live they always bring up how unfair life is. So have you spend time in homeless shelter ? Do that first because I did it for long time.
@@kdavid123186 I totally get where you are come from. I myself worked so much for so long and ended up homeless and had never experienced that so I know people can come out of it. I was fortunate enough to have a friend let me stay in a small cabin like place which was rough but there is always way to make it but we do need to do better in our country and stop making people struggle to where they have to be worried that if they lose their job or any traumatic event they will lose their home and life. There is no reason for it in our country at all.
@@dlo3955 I know, why does everyone forget that most Americans earning less than 60-70k can easily go broke from student loans, job loss, and the high rents in cities they work in does not help. Maybe people who still have jobs can work remote and move the hell out of the overpriced areas and save money faster. I'll include Ausin and Seattle too for being expensive, not just all the cities in CA.

You can't stop homelessness. We have a HUGE population of homeless in Washington, D.C. A number of them have told me that they HATE staying in the shelter!☹ They give different reasons: rules, harassment, thefts, bed bugs/fleas, defecation in the shower stalls, no privacy, poor conditions, etc. I've been homeless. The good Lord removed me from that condition. It wasn't fun. However, it was a great learning experience. I have also been gifted with not having to cope with drug 💉or mental health issues 😖 like many of these poor souls. I wish I could do more to help.
I would like to talk more with you
You’re so right. I lived in a homeless shelter in Hawaii. I would rather stay on the street. The staff they hire to run these places are unprofessional. The best part is these homeless shelters here in Hawaii are run by a Health Center.

“Homeless people lost hope and turned to drugs and alcohol.” Or is it people chose drugs and alcohol over their rent and bills... 🤔
@lou gev oh they drink believe me
Trust me, the bad habits always come first. Anyone who tells you different is lying. Homelessness doesn't cause addiction. If it did, every one of the millions of shanty dwellers in the world would be an addict - and the vast majority are not.
In the late 80s, I was very close to being homeless with 3 under age daughters. This was due to having a job that didn't pay well and being told I had to move because the landlord wanted to move his relatives in. It's no joke, folks. Some of these homeless people are ex cons, some are families who have lost their incomes. Some suffer from mental illness and drug addiction. It's so very sad!!

@@tictacterminator At least 5 years ago, there weren't so many people openly bragging about having very little compassion. 6 years ago is when Twitter developed enough political power to get SF DPW to spray homeless people in front of the building with high pressure street cleaning hoses in the middle of winter. One of them died of hypothermia. But it still took a few years after that for the massive normalization of Cluster B traits to spread from tech bros to the general population. This is definitely not the easiest place in the world, or even in the country, to get on your feet. By far. Maybe for somebody without normal human emotions, it would be a fun game.

Think about it for a second, When we first got that first stimulus check of a $1,200 who do you think benefited from that the most a person from California but the higher cost of living or the guy in a red state with the lower cost of living?

Yeah no, in Tijuana you don’t see anybody sitting around on their asses waiting for handouts, and throwing tantrums blaming everyone else because they don’t have everything they decided they were entitled to! Everyone works, and works damned hard to support their families, even the little kids. To all the people who argue that all the homeless are due to cost of living and lost jobs due to Covid… when’s the last time you saw a single white person sitting outside Lowe’s or Home Depot, ready and waiting to work??? NEVER! And you never will! These guys get up early in the morning, take a 2 hr bus ride far from the low income area where they live and can afford to pay rent, and go to the wealthy areas where even during a pandemic, rich white people are flooding into the stores to do their home-improvement projects, and will gladly pay these guys to do the hard, dirty work. You can tell yourself whatever makes you feel superior, just like all the homeless do who are “too smart” to slave away at a low-paying job just to pay bills and taxes. Aside from being drug addicts, the homeless now are all the lazy, spoiled, entitled idiots who were raised to believe they deserved everything for nothing, and that their failures were always someone else’s fault. When they find out it doesn’t work that way, like children they literally sit down on the ground and refuse to move.
Without California, America is nothing. By the way, officials in the east coast send their homeless people to the west coast (specially California) because of the pleasant weather over here.

Matt K Exactly.
If you actually know homless people in person, there is a lot of mental issues an addictions.
Families brokeness is also at fault. People should be helped by their own families first.
Alma In America? Never gonna happen.
Alma, I most likely know more homeless then you. I have worked in the mental health field for 25+ years. I worked for 6 years with the homeless in Seattle, WA. Many of the "addicted" have underlying mental health issues and are using street drugs to self medicate, since our society deemed them disposable in the 1980's with deinstitutionalization policy under Regan. This resulted in dismantling the mental health care services in this country and why there are none now. Your idea of their families need to take care of them is simplistic at best. Many come from homes were the other family members have their own mental health issues. Others come from homes where the family can not cope/deal with the person's mental illness, and there is a lack of community support and resources for them to do so. With all that said, my original point was that the news report sidestepped the fact that it is a loss of jobs causing the increase now in homelessness and not the disease it's self, as implied, that is causing it.
Matt K What a fantastic human you are.
Keep voting Democrat and you'll see more and more of this.
