      If Andrew Yang became president, it would offer all adults, including the homeless $1000 PER MONTH! Medicare eligibility for all. Etc... It’s not a gimmick. It would be funded by a toll placed on the largest corporations... too complicated to explain, watch his interview with Joe Rogan

    When I was younger I was just two steps from being in this woman’s position. I had lost everything due to drugs.. my job in the fashion industry, my apartment, my family cut me off and due to my actions, I burned bridges with my friends that were allowing me to stay with them. I remember being on Bowery St in NYC sitting on my suitcase, crying... i had no idea what I was going to do. I proceeded to ask for money on the street, so many people passed me. Finally a gentleman stopped and asked why I was crying... I was honest with him and he said he would help as long as I went to rehab. He proceed to pay for the Fung Wah bus to get me to Boston and gave me some extra money to get home to NH..when I got there I went to rehab. I’ve now been off drugs for 15 years. I will never forget what that man did for me, he possibly saved my life. All it takes is that one person to listen and lend a helping hand. I love what you are doing with this channel❤️🙏🏻❤️

    I am this Woman. I would be homeless too if it weren’t for my parents and I am 53 years old. One bad year of uncontrollable events took my bottom out. I had to leave my well paying job due to disability, I was living off of a small settlement from the accident. My husband had lost his job and really wasn’t interested in finding work again. The month my money ran out I found out he had found another woman. So he moved in with her and left me the responsibility of our high rent apt in Seattle. So my parents asked me to come live with them. 3 years later I am still waiting on Disability I paid into and have no income. Even with all the struggles I am so fortunate because I have family and not on the streets. My heart goes out to this woman.

But,it is not paid enough so I can save some money and I have no health insurance. I live from month to month and I am thankful and happy. But,if something happens to me, I get ill or disabled, I can't have sick leave and I will lose my job and end up on street again. I pray to God everyday just to stay healthy and able to work. If not I will end up just like this wonderful, brave lady.

      She doesn't have a choice. When you're in a situation like this it's in a human's instinct to survive. When I went to jail in 2005 I was so used to having all of life's little amenities play a nice mattress hot water TV able to eat whenever I wanted but in jail you don't get shampoo brushes simple things unless you have money and the only way to have money is if someone sends it to you. Sometimes you can get socks or a t-shirt from the counselor or case manager actually mad. I was there for a month before my family would send me any money and I was given a small bar of soap a very tiny toothbrush and some toothpaste and some of that cheap roll-on deodorant. So I had to use the bar soap on my hair and my body. Monday morning the soap was so horrible that I became allergic to it and there was nothing I could do because otherwise I wouldn't be able to wash my body and so you figure out ways to survive.

      No doubt there are multiple issues contributing to homelessness. People like Rocky and homeless families receive help because they are high functioning. 75% of homeless are either drug or alcohol addled and those with mental issues. Many do not want to be helped or are so mentally disabled that they make illogical choices. I worked with social service agencies and have seen this.

      @gnome3928 5 лет назад +1

      L Yang is far from a socialist. UBI is a long time capitalist idea. Socialism is when the government takes over means of production. UBI by re-allocation is capitalism that doesn’t start at zero because it allows the people to control to flow of the market. That’s why thousands of economists endorse Andrew’s plan. While other candidates want to create more programs, Andrew wants to give that money directly to the people to solve their own problems. Automation is changing the rules of capitalism. Replacing 40% of jobs with technology. That can be a great thing for society but a UBI will need to be implemented to allow capitalism to continue to thrive and benefit society. It’s a lot more complex than what you are currently assuming. Also it’s not just “free” money. Right now all the biggest tech companies are making insane amounts of money from mining our personal data. Yang would require them to pay us a small portion for us and allow us to turn off their ability to sell our data if we choose to opt out. Data right now is worth more than oil and technology is the oil of the 21st century.

      Do you have a room to offer up to someone ? Over the decades I’ve offered up my home. I slept on my couch to give a young single mom my bedroom while she got back on her feet. Years before that an old childhood friend found me. And asked if she could live with us for a little while. We had a teeny house at the time. All I could offer her was my pop up trailer in the backyard but she graciously took it. Long story short now, she’s a nurse and has helped pay for her kids’ college.

      In the US it can go pretty fast, 1/ lack of family support , most peole ar on their own, if you get laid off and get sick with no or little health insurance that can turn sour pretty quickly, 2/ how many people in the US ( any occidental country) own their home with no mortage on it ? Rent are expensive, cost of living to the roof, and too many people are chained to the banks with personal loans, credit card debt, car lease, college loans you name it and 3/ most people got meaningless/ redundant jobs in the services / financial /insurance /IT industry, most of these jobs are here for the people to pay the bank , difference between areal profession and a job and it does not matte if you got a master degree or not , 90% of college degree are useless, there was a study that show that tuitions fees for college increase by 300% between 1990 and 2010, we are now in 2023........so you get the picture, my point is , even without drugs and alcohol things can turn south rapidly @@riversidehermit

I’ve been in some tough spots financially and without my family to help, I could’ve been in that same situation. We all need to remember that every human being has feelings and needs and hopes. Once they’re in that position, it’s almost impossible to get out unless someone has compassion and intervenes. Not saying some homeless people aren’t choosing to live on the streets without any responsibilities except to get loaded. Some just caught a bad break and need a hand to get back on their feet. Thanks for making and sharing this video. I hope it encourages people to step up and show the love of Christ to others.

    I am homeless, so grateful to two different families that have taken me into their homes when my remaining family wouldn't answer the phone after my childhood friend and fiance died unexpectedly after a brief illness. I've lost everything and done my grieving around people that I hadn't known before Ted's death. People that don't have a lot themselves but I have eaten everyday, even had cigarettes, been allowed to claim a puppy that I still have for more than a year. I cried so hard when after having Christmas dinner with the first of these two families, I was handed two gifts wrapped like the rest of the family. It was a beautiful Christmas and maybe the most meaningful presents I ever received. So, blessedly, I haven't had to sleep in a tent or been on the streets yet but I'm so aware how close I am to that. I truly think that people that have less, give so much more. They know how it feels to be poor or do without where people in their lovely homes, look at poor and homeless people like we are lesser. So happy this beautiful, well spoken lady has a home. I hope she gets to watch T.V. and be tired at the end if her day, just as she spoke of. I lived in a very nice home, had pretty much anything my heart desired and all that was gone overnight. Praying to have another place if my own again, I'll never take a simple thing like a bed for granted again. The kindness of strangers, now family, saves me from who knows what. Terrifies me to think on what I may yet have to suffer. Bless us all, all the homeless, so many of us. Bless the people that care about us.

Because we do not realize we could have a series of unfortunate events that could result in us being homeless one day. Sometimes I wish I had the riches of the wastefully rich so I could help those that need it the most. No person should ever become "invisible" because how would you feel to become invisible in the moment you need others the most? No matter our circumstances we are ALL people and deserve respect and peace of mind. I would love to see a follow up video on Rockey.
