How can you hate on a country that doesn’t punish you for saying u hate them?
Because of all the other problems maybe?
@@MoonshineHthen I sure wouldn’t be in that country if it was that bad, would you?
@@patricksmith5282 Of course not - we all know that moving to a different country is a fast and easy process that is available to all people! You can even just do it all online nowadays!
Why did he come here?
@@MoonshineH Of course it's easy. Just ask the tens of millions that went to Europe. Haha!
America. A nation so great that even the people who hate her won't leave.
I'd love to be able to trade the Americans who hate America for someone in a 3rd world who loves America.
This high level of hypocrisy makes my blood boiled. Why hate a place while the folks don't want to leave the place despite they can or even immigrated to that place
Simple to destroy what others have created
You see mexicanos are racist, they hate Americans send them all back.
Idiots: defund the police! Same idiots: hello, 911? I need help
Who told him that no one here was poor. Not any American. Must have been someone in his country. If I were him, I would hurry back to my home country, tell everyone there to stay. I'll be glad to drive him. I am sick and tired of supporting the world while we do without.
Amen!
Yeah that was my thought. Sounds like he got a harsh taste of reality when he actually got here. If you're going to up and leave for another country, city or town for that matter you should really have a talk with some of the locals before uprooting your life.
Compassion does not mean letting people do what they want. Compassion is set rules and penalties.
bottom line is none of their countries show compassion to anyone and in fact show less compassion to anyone than our country does to everyone! their countries too have homelessness, poverty, war, violent conflict between ethnicities, all kinds of drug abuse and violence related to that, etc.
Corruption is currently in charge of injustice
THEY NEED TO BRING THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE BACK TO THE SCHOOLS PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE COUNTRY EVERY MORNING OR GET OUT
I was Just talking about that yesterday. Americans these days lack Nationalism. They don't pledge of Allegiance, knows the Star Spangled lyrics, America the Beautiful and God Bless America! That's shameful & UnAmerican!
Go away red coat.
When I was growing up we said the pledge of allegiance every morning and we said a prayer. Then they went to a moment of silence so we could say either or both. Do think that people under the age of 49 know the pledge of allegiance? They made sure that our children and future children have no allegiance to this country only hate. This makes it easy for them to destroy this beautiful country.
The schools here in Mississippi say the pledge of allegiance. The real pledge not this B.S. where they try to change the words. But the real pledge .
And remove the Liberal problem within our country.
another thing about the homeless issue is that some of them aren't actually homeless, but are "panhandlers" that don't want to work for money
omg i was homeless last summer and SHOCKED how many beggars actually went home every night! They had specific outfits they'd wear for begging, big camping backpacks and stuff to play the part. I couldnt believe how many were fake.
@@Llkolii Tons all over the place, I moved west. In Flagstaff the main thing is stolen valor. Hope you got through it.
I ran into that same issue, and it's turned me off from donating cash to beggers. Had a guy looked like he was homeless in a really bad way. Then a couple hours later I saw him on the BART in San Francisco in a suit...I couldn't believe my eyes...next day I saw the same guy begging looking in bad shape...around 5 is I saw him go into the bathroom at the station, come out in a suit no dirt or grime I was wtf...lesson learned
@@Llkolii, wow, that's insane!!!
The words we are looking for are..."deliberate degenerates"
Call 'em what they are.
If he doesn't like this he carry his behind back to where he came from !
Utopia does not exist. You are welcome to leave immediately, Kid,
They can leave, but they won't.
I live overseas and you would not believe that a lot of people from other countries believe everyone in America is rich.....it ridiculous....I explain to them that it is not true.....they just believe you can give them plenty of money because you are from America
They aren't rich, they are in debt up to their eyes.
@@colonelfalseflag1219 absolutely
We know you're poor with lower paychecks than Westerners (Europeans) your level is like East Europeans but they're developing you're undeveloped and wages in East Europe grow the economy too. Is just easier in USA to get at all & to get more & bigger credit cards than in Europe.
The majority of people are thick that's why.
Same here. I’m an American living in Asia and when I bring up where I’m from people think I’m rich. 🤦🏻♀️
Regardless of what this clueless kid says, America is the greatest country in the world. How else can you explain that 50% the inhabitants of the world want to come here. USA first
Lol you are deluded. I hate every single country on this planet btw. We need something new and united under one banner.
They should noticing high number of homeless and fake homeless, dangerous ghetto area, high price of house, and omnipresent crime
We used to be until that senile shell of a man or whatever he is got into the oval office. Every time an illegal commits a crime on a citizen people should blame biden and his supporters. We gotta get it at the source.
If America sucks why doesn't he go back? Simple. It's worse in his country and no future for him or his children. I always say "Love America or leave it" in fact I have it on my license plate.
It took my family 10 plus years to be selected to move to America and I feel privileged and blessed to call myself an American. Yes, lots need to be improved and rebuilt because of incompetent and corrupt current leaders but I still love my country!
Glad to have you as my countryman, brother.
"I heard that America was the greatest nation, all rich with no crime or homelessness, but then I went to San Diego and L.A..."
Bro, there's your mistakes right there!
Lol
Marthas Vinyard should have been his first stop ...

He could have gone to Nancy Pelosi's home.😂😂😂
Remember there are no cats in America. Shocked to find out there are cars in America.
@bigdoubleu117 try Baltimore Chicago SF NY Seattle. Portland. Just about every Democrat run city .oh I forgot oakland.
My great grandparents and my husband's grandparents believed that America was the land of opportunity and no one was poor and the streets were paved with gold. When reality hit they realized that maybe it wasn't a perfect place but there was still opportunities that weren't available to them in Germany/France and Russia. They worked hard and gave their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and the next generations, opportunities to succeed. A lot of immigrants believe that they will come here and pick up the gold from the street and it's a hard wake up call. We are still the land of opportunity for those that want to chase a dream.
"How is the best way to solve homelessness and crime?"
Maybe stop having your homeless and criminals in Mexico from hopping the border to our side?
🎯
And stop funding multiple wars and taking care of refugees. Theres an Ol' Saying "You can't save everybody", so how about saving those we can, as in our citizens, than worrying about some other nation's problem.
@@Become-EggplantOne of those wars we’re spending everything on is one where we’re losing everything while ignoring our borders. Which is exactly what’s being orchestrated by our enemy with our politicians aiding and abetting them.
Putin working with Hamas and the Cartels has funded the campaign along with China to free and send terry-ist criminals of every region to Europe and America and its working because he knew our politicians tied to the WEF would be dumb enough to let them all in.
Yes, it’s an invasion-by criminal terry-ists of every region meant to weaken and destroy us from within. These terry-ist criminals hail from China, Russian, Hamas controlled regions, and Cartels controlled regions.
It’s a collaboration of all of our enemies working together as we get more divided until they destroy everything that makes the USA function as a nation.
The enemies are inside at work, and Biden along with Beetlejuice/Johnson, Adams, and a ton of other (D) politicians encouraged every place on earth to send them and let them all in! We got Castro’d as hard as could be! And the border STILL isn’t closed under this senile administration!!
A majority of the homeless in America which come to no surprise are "AMERICANS". If Americans got off their lazy asses and worked instead of blaming people from Mexico there probably be nearly few to no homelessness people. FYI Americans commit a majority of the crime compared to noncitizens. Maybe get your information straight first??
@@Become-EggplantI'm angry because I recently found out that Ukrainian and Cuban refugees over 65 are receiving $1500 a month checks from social security. They've never paid into our social security system and we keep getting told that social security is running out of money, yet we are giving it to people that never paid into it. Also, because of my birth year, I'd have to work until I'm 68 years old, but they get it at 65. They are also getting more money than many of our seniors that paid into social security for 40 years. It's wrong and shouldn't be happening.
Homelessness became an industry that the government outsourced to private companies. Those companies are paid to service the homeless and if they solve the homeless problem, they government will stop paying them for it. They have less than no incentive to solve the problem, but they have plenty of incentive to perpetuate the problem.
I wonder how many 501C3's would shut down without the homeless to "serve."
“I went to California and it was terrible” well there’s your first problem you went to LA lmao.
CACAfornia is a shithole communist 💩💩
CA used to be nice before the Liberal infection took over. To really start fixing things we need to remove vermin such as Newsom from office with a permanent lifelong ban on ever being able to even run for office again at any level.
I would not even allow something like Newsom to run for a seat on a school board without being turned into a very clear example if it tried so the rest of our garbage would know exactly what will happen.
Lets realise that if you want to help solve homelessness and crime the first thing we need to do is not import anymore homeless and criminals.
Then you start dealing with the homeless and criminals that are actually Americans.
Immigrant: I'm from TJ and came here thinking America was so rich. But there's homeless everywhere.
Charlie: In TJ, if someone 100% refuses to work, what do they eat?
Immigrant: If they refuse to work - they would just die.

He lost me on this one. My wife and I live in a run down RV which most people would classify as a " homeless persons RV, but that is far from the truth. Neither of us were homeless when we bought our RV, we simply had bad or no credit and couldn't afford rent here in San Jose. We wanted to renovate this pos but it got expensive and we started getting harassed by people and cops. So much so that my whole RUclips channel is based off it. If you knew what the standards were to get into and be able to stay in a shelter you wouldn't go if it was the last choice. Drugs are a non factor. There are millions of Americans who live in their car and go to work everyday, don't do drugs and handle their responsibilities. We are all one major event away from being homeless. Remember that
Press X to doubt.

What he did not say that he traveled through Orange County California, and it was not horrible. Los Angeles and San Diego are both Democrat run cities Orange County California is widely Republican.
I live on the border and go into Mexico regularly. Mexico can’t even compare to the US. The amount of poverty over there is unreal.
The homeless in the US still have a better standard of living than certainly homeless in other countries and even some standard citizens of other countries.
So?
@@MoonshineHSo, the poorest people in the United States are wealthier than 70% of the entire global population.
@@nikkidarkangelpnope8400 Again, so? What's your point?
Getting punched in the arm is better than getting punched in the nose. You're still getting punched tho.
😂😅 Clearly, you've never been homeless, and never had to find a toilet at 3am before. 😤😤
@MoonshineH ye but US American Homeless is rich & free full with pride and freedom he/she walks over gold has Sewer tunnels trash bins eats free in stores takes showers in city channels sleeps in toilets or busses so many opportunities. Meanwhile world's Homeless have just welfare and aren't rich.
What people don't get is that many - not all, but many - homeless people, choose to live that way because want to be nomads without being monitored, governed, told what to do (and that includes getting sober or clean if they're addicts; they want to remain addicts and do not want to be forced into sobriety). I've seen too many videos of homeless people being *given* opportunities to get off the street, but they throw that opportunity away because they value their freedom on the streets more than getting integrated into society to become functional.
A big thing about homeless, drug addict or anything is that nothing is a homogenous group. There are different reasons for people being in those groups. Some are worth saving and some really are not. Often people either assume the entire group is on one side or the other. I wish we can identify them individually and treat them individually. It really makes no sense to treat everyone one way or the other just because they're homeless or addicts. You should not be lenient on the lazy nor should you be mean to those that are just unfortunate.
honestly that was the best part of my homeless experience. I didn't need to do anything except find food and somewhere to sleep. It was quite peaceful for a while not having the pressure of $$$ hanging over every aspect of life. But a very unsustainable way of living in terms of physical health. Being able to afford somewhere to live should be a human right imo
@@indianatarzan7555It’s super great when little girls want to participate in civic discussions but these topics are really for adults. Grownups know money doesn’t grow on trees and all of society can’t go destitute catering custom tailored services to the precise needs and preferences of each individual who chooses to shit on the street.
@@WinstonSmithGPT Dunning-Kruger much?
Lots of homeless fall into a couple categories: drug addicted folks that do anything they can for drugs, mentally ill people who do not want to live under control of other people or the authority.
What % of the homeless can work but won't? I am sick to death of people playing the system. Entry level work pays entry level money. The easiest way to end unemployment and homelessness would be to eliminate the my paycheck funded freebies given out to people whose sole contribution to society is keeping social workers employed.
You very commonly need an address in order to become employed 🤦
@@goldstein85282 I actually believe there is a bigger % on welfare that could work than homeless.....many of the homeless have mental problems...
In West (rich Europe) they get free housing utilities cash & foodstamps. The colonies - USA Africa Americas aren't developing countries yet to afford that for homeless there.
@@MoonshineHID too
@@MoonshineH Anyone, homeless included, can get a PO Box and an ID. In fact at least here in CA, almost all homeless can get a free cell phone. Not to mention, there are shelters and programs for people to get sober and get off the streets if they are willing to put in the work and follow the rules. Most just simply will chose not to.
So basically he has the same understanding about America as Fivel from American Tail?
"How is America so Great if it has homelessness and poor people" he says. America is so Great because of its people, its people who understand the importance of Self Determination, Self Reliance, Resilience. That's what makes it work.
Same s… in Australia . People barge in uninvited & then bag Australia .
It's so hot in Vegas, homeless do crimes just to get out of this weather. It's really dangerous living
1030am in Phoenix and we're at 102° already.... I can't wait for it to warm up, still a little chilly from the overnight temperature drop...

There was a huge increase in homelessness starting back in the 1980s when they began de-institutionalization and started closing state run mental hospitals, by 2015 there were none left open. This caused a large number of people with mental problems who could not handle living in society to end up on the streets. We also had a large number of military veterans end up homeless because of mental or physical problems. Then we had another resurgence of homelessness during the pandemic when a lot of folks lost their homes due to the stay in place and can't go to work thing, then a new resurgence of homelessness now with the influx of illegal immigrants and nothing in place to handle such huge numbers.
All this combined has created a giant problem and no one seems to have a solution. Liberal cities just try to throw tax money at it and that doesn't work, it only causes resentment from the taxpayers.
They honestly need to reopen the state hospitals at least for the mentally ill so they can get some help, and the homeless veterans need places to live first before the immigrants.
the only issue I have with state hospitals is the potential for removing someone's rights who doesnt really need to be there. Its a huge risk of turning into a tax syphoning industry. Shelters are needed that don't involve any form of legal 'detainment.' People shouldn't be punished for falling on hard times. But yes hospitals are needed for mentally ill on the streets its wrong to leave them in that state in public
"By 2015 there where none left open"
BS, with a capital bs, there are 11 state run mental hospital facilities in operation just in Oklahoma alone. In fact the State's first state run nut hut in Fort Supply is still in operation today.
@@LlkoliiMy only problem with your point is that a lot of these people ARE F**KING DANGEROUS! My mother worked at a state run mental hospital and one the patients walked into her office and beat the crap out of her then tried to strangle her.
We don't need shelters, we need to bring back the old hospitals with locked patient doors at night.
@@Princess_Celestia_You cannot just institutionalize people who are not harmful to themselves or others. The law changed in the 1980s. Learn.
In fairness the reason why they were shut down was because of the atrocious conditions and the rampant abuse that happens in them. People forget about the asylums where the inmates didn't get beds and had to shit on the floor.
As a Mexican I don’t claim that man. I agree that if you hate a country so much you’re welcome to leave.
He's like a guy eating steak and saying that eating meat is a bad thing.
I’m guessing the government/us taxpayers are paying for this young man’s education. So many things wrong with that.
Or maybe his cartel daddy is paying his way.
I had a friend from Thailand who married a military man. He told and sold the same lie
She believed the streets were paved in gold and everyone was rich. Wasn"t a happy marriage she wanted to go home so her parents to meet their grand kids. He wouldn't let her go😢
So basically she was a gold digging hoe that thought she married a rich man. Karma at its best.
Gold diggers get theirs.
So she married purely out of self interest and plans to commit international parental kidnapping? Is that what you are saying?
One of the biggest incorrect assumptions i see about the homeless, is that they all want homes. The vast majority of the ones i know/knew when i was homeless, didn't want a home. In fact, when Seattle created an apartment complex to house these people, the place was condemned within 2 years of its opening.
Of course it's harder to help them when we're spending billions on prioritizing illegals.
I've never been homeless, but meeting people over the years at least two guys I talked to were wanderers. They stayed maybe a couple months at most in a town and moved to the next, it was not an easy life but they always found charitable people along the way.
Pretty sure not even Americans advertise America as “no homeless.” How did he come to that conclusion?
Newsome ...
I kinda get it. Liberals make it damn near impossible to live here
You are doing a Great Job just like your Dad!!! Your Dad is a Great Guy and did an outstanding job raising you!
You are so smart. I am 64 years old and you give me hope for the future thank you
I've noticed a shift in homeless people on the streets, it used to be older people that were living on the street, but now its the younger generation. and it a heartbreaking thought to know that our countries youth is ending up there. and Charlie is correct its mental illness and drug abuse that is putting them there, trauma and pain play a huge role. because it mainly takes and traumatic experience to put people on that destructive path. and it will take hitting the lowest and ready for change to get them on the right path of reaching a better you. im a recovering addict going on 8 years this years thanksgiving day.
Dang, looking fly as hell. You record this before a wedding? Appreciate your insights!
You are spot on.
Well, California has no idea where $20b that was supposed to go to help the homeless situation was spent.
It went in the pocket of the Politicians that created it.
A lot of people don’t have critical thinking skills. It’s sad, and these are adults without the ability to think. I just found your show and it’s great!! ❤️
I like that his examples are incredibly left leaning cities. You want low crime and homeless rates go to more conservative areas.
Better question is how do we end homeless issue in the world? I had a GF who asked me to donate to end hunger, I told her okay how much do you need to end world hunger? She said it couldn’t be done. There is no harm in helping people, but help the people that need it and help them out of the problem!
I'd ask a couple of simple questions.
#1 Why did you come to the US?
#2 How long have you been here?
#3 Why are you still here?
He commented on horrible cities and they were in CA. Surprised?
To fix homelessness, we need to stop illegal immigration, fix drug abuse and help our mentally ill.
Whelp, immigrants come to America because they want a better life. Back before my mom was born in her grandmother's era. They were told America's streets were paved in gold, all the food you can eat, no one is poor. My mom told me America has never really known true generational poverty not like in Columbia not other countries like it. It's life and death there. When you hear about a place that can actually give you a chance at a decent life. Wouldn't you go for it??? The problem is there are thousands of others ahead of the line trying to get through the red tape of regulations, policies and thousands of others cutting in front of you by jumping the border. It's miserable. The dream starts to fade when you're fighting an uphill battle of immigration laws, traffickers, stigma etc... Dream still there, no one said it was going to be easy. Do it the right way.
I find funny that he has the balls to say that he hates America but probably wouldn't even criticize his own.
The idea that homeless shelters are the answer is BS. Shelters have a limited number of beds and once they're full for the night they turn you away, so "bringing you back to the shelter" is ridiculous because they'll turn you away. In the shelter you have to put your belongings on the bed and sleep on top of them so no one steals them. You're put into a room with maybe 8 bunk beds, or have a large room with over a hundred, and expected to sleep with violent and mentally ill people around you so very few actually get any rest. People in shelters sometimes get robbed, beaten, and even raped. When I was homeless I wouldn't go near them and most of the others wouldn't either because you were safer on the streets. If you want to make shelters appealing you need to give people locking doors; put a cot in a big closet with a lock on the door and do one person per room so they feel protected. Giving someone their own door that they can lock is the only way to make most homeless people want to go to a shelter.
Back in the great depression, some State had “poor houses” in which people could seek shelter & work on local farms. It wasn’t ideal but it gave them more than a cart to sleep on in the night , they had a place to live, they didn’t have to leave in the morning in rain, snow & freezing weather & then stand in line again at night hoping there would be a cart for them to use. With the billions spend on Ukraine & other wars, America could have instead focused on creating public housing & jobs for the homeless. Tiny house village communities where people could be sheltered & safe & develop hope & pride in their own achievements. So much could be done with money thrown at wars that have nothing to do with America.
I agreed with Charlie about homeless people staying in shelters, and not on the streets. I believe if homeless people refuse to go to shelters, they should go to prison.
The answer to his question is simple. Lesser off people will always want what better off people have. And some of those will commit crimes to get it. Just like you said JoJo, the vast majority of homeless have drug and/or mental health issues. Some homeless just don’t want to have a home or a job. They have admitted this on video. It’s a sad reality but it’s true.
If he hates America so much, then he is free to leave, and if he does not want to go, deport him. Then deny readmission.
Coming from a guy from a country run by drug cartels and absolutely corrupt from top to bottom. He is part of the problem here in the US.
Every society has poor people. That goes back thousands of years. Look at the overall picture.

Too much compassion without balance is bad very very bad.

The AUDACIOUSNESS of him to leave his country, and Hate on the U.S. 😮
What irks me is that people don't acknowledge the absolutely crazy increase in property and rent prices causing people with jobs and no mental health or substance abuse problems to go homeless. Especially when states set aside hundreds of millions for less-than-legal migrants so they get housing and food for free while ignoring the taxpaying citizen. Shelters aren't the be-all end-all solution for homelessness either, since a lot of homeless people have property of their own, and most shelters explicitly forbid you from owning anything too big to fit into a footlocker along with things that make more sense(IE illicit substances). They also can't get mail at shelters, and getting a job without a mailing address is all but impossible in today's society. A real solution would be temporary housing, as well as treating addiction as an illness rather than a crime so they can get treatment instead of a criminal record(which ALSO hurts their ability to get a job). I believe countries like Denmark do this and they have a near-zero homelessness rate.
What irks me is when people like you who know nothing of the homeless make false correlations about the homeless. Very few of the homeless are working people who just can't afford rent and none of those are the homeless living in tent cities and on the side walks. And yes most quality shelters and programs do allow mail, will allow their address to be used for employment purposes, and anyone, homeless included, can get a PO Box and ID. Your entire comment shows how little you actually know about the homeless.
The reason we have a plethora of homeless people and crime is because we subsidize being homeless and if they do commit a crime in some states they get 3 hots and a cot for a few days and no lasting penalties.
Well said, JoJo.
Look, I know about this first hand, I've been homeless for years. I work (been at my job for 8 years), never used drugs, not a criminal, not mentally ill and won't pretend to be for benefits. I use the money I earn to pay for my college fees, no I cannot get financial aid, don't need it anyway, I do work. I'm simply not able to pay rent so I decided to use my money to invest in myself and go to school. You guys have NO IDEA what you're talking about. I'm not saying this to be mean. I like both you and Charlie, but this issue isn't something that is that easily put. And this "compassion" for all homeless people. We aren't all the same. Some of these folks will play on that "compassion" and turn around and cut your throat. But no, there are a lot of us who aren't substance abusers or mentally ill. Truth is guys like Charlie aren't going to want to hear the raw truth. They won't like it. He doesn't realize it but it's people like him who are part of the problem.
people like this don't understand the difference between great and perfect. You can be a great place and still have your faults. Not to have them would be perfect. Great is what should be aimed for, and we are great, not perfect.
Homelessness goes deeper than just an “issue.” It’s an entire fucking multi-million (billion?) dollar _industry._
One issue with the homelessness problem, is that a good chunk of them choose to live that way. Even I wanted to just live in my vehicle at one point, so I could save my rent money towards someday buying a home or starting my own business.
I wish it was that simple for the homeless issue. We don't have enough shelters for that. And they typically let you stay a few days then kick you out.
That’s the new way, come to America and complain about it, victimhood is all the rage.
Here in America we a system that doesn’t allow a group of armed individuals to terrorize a town to be extorted or dismembered! Like the cartels or sincario in Mexico
So he listened to lies, came here, and when he found out the truth he hated us for it? 😂😂 If nobody was poor and there was no crime allowing millions of migrants in with change that immediately! 😆
I have read in at least one older fictional story about an immigrant who thought that the streets in America were paved with gold. He'd only have to pick up a few bits off the street, and they would be all set. In the movie "An American Tail" (a story about immigrant mice), there is a song about how there are no cats in America "where the streets are paved with cheese". With the movie being over 30 years old and the short story being at least that old if not older, it is clear that this particular fantasy and others like it are nothing new, especially considering that both stories are set in the 1800s.
From its very beginning, America has been known as the Land of Opportunity. Even with today's technology that would reveal the truth that not everyone is rich here, I am not surprised that the myth persists. Then again, it depends on one's definition of wealth because even some of the poorest here are wealthy compared to some in another country. They have the opportunity to better themselves, although some take that opportunity and either pretend to be poor or like scraping by on government benefits when they are perfectly capable of working themselves.
We don''t need human rights. Our rights are God given.
Wow who is putting the idea in people's heads that the world can just be some perfect utopia where everyone is happy and rich and no one ever feels any bad feelings? I got news for you we're trapped in outer space and we're all going to die. The world is full of amazing things, awful things and everything in between. If you only focus on the awful things it seems awful, but the sense of awe and wonder that comes from focusing on the amazing can give you enough of a break from the awful stuff to not lose your mind. "You are what you eat" applies to the mind too, so dont eat too much negative information.
Anyone reading this: you beat the most unbelievably insane odds to be here. 18 generations ago literally 524,288 specific people had to meet 524,288 other specific people and have babies, those babies had to survive and live long enough to have other babies. Then 1 specific sperm out of between 40,000,000 and 300,000,000 had to fertilize 1 specific egg. And because of all those people beating insurmountable odds you are here. You have a very short window into an incomprehensibly massive and old universe, one life. Every second you spend angry, jealous, bitter, resentful or whatever other negative emotion is a second you can never get back.
We're all stuck together here, Earth is our liferaft in the cosmos it's just so big we can't tell. Everything around you is insane and amazing, you just have to look. Even things that feel normal are actually kinda weird/crazy. Water just falls out of the sky sometimes, so do giant balls of ice. Even pregnancy, people have sex and then a person grows inside them and comes out? Get off the computer and go outside, we are animals and we still have biological needs. If we saw a Chimpanzee using a phone all day and neglecting it's other needs we'd think it was sad and demand something be done. It's no different for us, if everything manmade around you disappeared you'd instantly become a naked mammal standing in the wilderness trying to survive. It's like we built a zoo around ourselves that we call modern civilization, but it's all just a veneer that creates the illusion that we are somehow separate from nature and exempt from it's rules. But nature can still snuff your life out in a nanosecond. Enjoy your time here and try to be kind to people, because it really is contagious (as is anger/hate).
How can an adult be so naive? Every country has poor, homeless people, etc, that’s just real life
On April the 6th I wound up in a hospital in Savannah, Ga.. The Mentally ill was a s==t show in the emergency room at the hospital. I had a nurse comment to me about the show.
Local government controls those issues. Mostly Democrat run areas have the worst issues. Check it out.
It begs the question is Tijuana better off than LA or San Diego
They got Donkey Shows ....
Unfortunately there are those who choose to be homeless. You can’t force someone to get a job and pay rent and bills in this country though I’m starting to think that law wouldn’t be so bad.
Every year, the team that wins the super bowl has stats that aren’t perfect. Sometimes just awful. They have turnovers, losses, injuries, weaknesses in their team. But they beat out all the other teams so they earn the right to be called the best.
Arguing that a country has problems or homelessness or isn’t perfect is hardly a reasonable argument disproving it is deserving of the #1 spot…
I lived overseas in different countries for seven years. He is definitely not the only one that thinks that. Most foreigners I’ve met, particularly from impoverished countries, believe everyone lives like Hollywood stars. I explained it is not like that at all. However, this is still one of the best countries to be in as far as opportunity. USA 🇺🇸
When it comes to the homeless situation we can easily house them in various ghost towns that have been abandoned for decades if not a century, unfortunately that is a resource that won't be tapped due to city folk having massive issues living and working in a rural area.
He came here, expecting a house money and everything given to him for free He doesn’t realize he has to work for it just like all of us Americans.
American is not the home of the rich. It is the land of opportunity. It is up to each person to decide what they will do with their opportunity. If you choose to be lazy, or a drunk or drug addict that is on you. It is no one else’s responsibility to make your life better. It is your own responsibility to make the life you desire
Love your channel and honest commentary.
Come to America, come legal and get a job ! Establish
your right to live here. Simple Amigo !
You have to understand, this is what he heard as a child and young adult. It is not his fault that he thinks this way.
If this young man thinks no one is poor in this country then he has been mislead big time!!!
I don’t blame the immigrant’s concern. No telling what he was promised before coming here.
He was correct in the first part.
America is the greatest nation in the world.
However, the parts about nobody being poor is an odd b.s thing people from other countries assume about America.
For instance, I watch a lot of scam baiting videos, and I can't tell you how many times the Indian and Nigerian scammers say how everyone in America is rich and can afford to be scammed and the banks will just refund our money...
Us all being rich is a weird, I suppose nice, stereotype other countries make up about us.
I had a scammer try to get money out of me and he couldn't understand why I couldn't send him any money. I flat out told him that I probably would be considered "rich" in his country, but in the US I am considered poor.
If a country is as free as the USA, people make their own choices about how they want to live; they are free to do so. If the USA was not free then all the criminals and homeless people could be deleted. A tyrannical government can do what they want to the people to make everything perfect but the people would not be free.
As a Mexican myself I feel ashamed for this kid… worse even hearing he is from Tijuana like I am also…
SPEND ALL THE MONEY HERE,DO NOT GIVE A SINGLE PENNY TO THIS COUNTRIES,WHO HATE US,BUT GIVE A REFUND TO "WORKING CLASS AMERICANS" WE COULD USE ONE
Where does the billion's of dollar's that California spends on homelessness go
