Each time I watch videos like this I ask myself this question , why does American government waste billions of dollars fueling wars in foreign countries and on weapons instead of helping its citizens first? Very sad
Help how? A handout? Free housing? If that's routinely available then I will homeless enjoy the free ride. Only they can help themselves by forcing themselves to go to rehab where they can plan their next move. They don't want to be helped and some of them are beyond help. They have allowed themselves to be permanently reprobate
@@geraldek4948 I agree with you in part. However, the government is given power and a salary to govern the country. Sometimes we have to deprive people of their '''rights''' in order to help them. The addicts have lost the ability to help themselves. The government should take care of the situation street by street. Prepare a tent city for them in the desert nearby, with all facilities. Put up a fence, but they can come and go as they please. Clean and patrol the pavements that was cleared to make sure no newcomers. The addict's choice of drugs should be given to them free of charge and timely wean them from it with methadone. If the drugs are free, that will get rid of drug sellers. Keep them occupied in a little gardening and odd jobs in their areas. Process the addicts, the ones who can return to families or get housing on their own. The others can get on their feet in a timely basis. Let the addicts know that they can stay as long as possible to get back on their feet, BUT, if they leave the area now provided for them and goes back on the streets, they will go to PRISON.
@@geraldek4948 On the other hand, we hear people blaming the drug sellers and never the addicts. I never head of a drug seller holding a gun to anyone's head to buy their products. When the addicts cannot get the '''real thing'' they buy over the counter and concoct their own drugs. I have to agree with you, some people are beyond help. I will help up to a point, if they are not willing, I would have to give, otherwise they will take over your life.
All of our father paid taxes to solve homelessness. This can happen to anyone Have a car accident Have a heart attack Have cancer Have a strom hit your life . It can happen to any hard working person. Shame on my generation We already paid for Solutions Shame on all the churches Shame on those who make money off of others pain. Shame on alcohol companies make millions Shame on big pharmaceutical companies. Our system is broken. May God have mercy on all of us.
Everyone has different stages of life, some hve stability in financial from generation, some are not...world is full of hates, opinions, likes, want, untruths, unluck..so we should hve sympathy on these people out there cuz .. we r not in theirs situation due to God Grace..who knows we can become poorer then them .. So support them..
Lord i wish these people could have some peace. NOBODY should have to live like this. Mental illness and drug addiction are BOTH diseases. There IS hope. Its never too late. 😔🙏❤️
The bottom line is it is sin and we all need saved of it we pray Father we need you to work and open a door for your kingdom to grow with the people out here and everwhere in your hands i trust we just praise you for the grace to live in Jesus name Amen
I've seen my share of homeless, drug addicts and alcoholics in Russia. Not sure where you're hiding, but the thugs stomping in heads of the homeless THERE, is worse than in the US. Look it up, or venture onto the Gore sites to see it. Russia has problems well above the US pay grade
This is the answer!!!!!! And more jails & enforcement, at the court level! Prosecute all of the criminals in this world & have plenty of room to put them!
Notice all the wheel chairs?? Addicts destroy their bodies. Go to the hospital..Get a leg amputated. Then go right back to this life.. most of these people don’t have it in them to stop….
THE AMERICAN DREAM IS A THING OF THE PAST. WE ARE BEING CONTROLLED BY COMMUNIST ILLUMINATI NAZI PEDOPHILES. THEIR GOAL IS TO TEAR DOWN AMERICA. THUS OPEN BORDERS ALLOWING TONS OF FENTANYL TO COME IN. GOD IS ANGRY
These people you filmed are truly in the most dire situations. The ones who really make me sad are the younger folks out there. Where is family to help them? This homelessness has become an epidemic in the USA and other parts of the world, Truly, very sad.
Reality is they do not see themselves in dire situations as you imagine , they are where they want to be without any responsibility - all their basic needs met so they can indulge their drug habit
It's stupidly of pple to think that every person that is in a dire situation like this is a drug addict. Many are disabled. Disability can happen at any age to anyone in any industry. You can be an accomplished professional one day and completely broke the next. I know because it happened to me. My family is in denial of my disability. Complete and utter denial. It's clear to me at this point when pple see disparity they blame everything but themselves. It's American communities that are to blame. They blame drugs or addiction and when they're asked about the underlying source they just scowl and whine like their attitude is justified. Like the outcome is justified. We have more pple in prison and homeless than any developed country in the world. We have the resources to house and feed everyone here easily but it's just the drugs? We used to have more social welfare policies before the Reagan administration dismantled it. Before that happened, before the drug war, and before people just decided to take it out on those with worse outcomes things were genuinely improving. Literally the only time the poverty rate ever actually improved was under JFK's policies. Social welfare is necessary and helping people out... actually does help. Why is that so hard to believe?
sleeping with a pillow on that skinny median.. cars two feet from you're head. Incredible amount of loss. Fetty and tranq make heroin look like a kids vitamins. We're losing multiple generations to this. 🙏
The old man with the sign is a panhandler. He has sunglasses, cigarettes, decent clothes, no sores and looks fairly clean. I believe he is just a beggar trying to get your money.
@@paulmanegold304and that's on them. The landlords insurance, and maintenance went up. That's why the rent has, and will kero going up. The rebuild on my house for insurance went from $450k to $1.3mil. My insurance tripled. But, we forecast for things like that. Unlike most the US population. Living beyond their means will render you a street person.
@@paulmanegold304 On behalf of the slum lords, most of their property has been vandalized and it costs $$ to maintain. Only a huge security deposit will lower the rents!
If you go from Phoenix Arizona all the way to Tacoma, Philadelphia, Atlanta, LA, the story is all the same: People love to get high, and the fucking higher, the better!!
I'm from Russia. Why are there so many dirty streets in America with homeless people and drug addicts? It's good that there is nothing like this in Russia.
@@nnconfomiststoic888 I suppose there are. I used to keep a scrap book of anything to do with Russia when l was a child, l was fascinated with it, but they were all wintry, snowy pictures. That's maybe what makes me think of it as always cold. 😊
There's no doubt about it. Every society has its rich and poor, and the video shows the poor. The development of technology in the United States is excellent, and talents from all over the world go to the United States, ensuring that American technology remains at the forefront.
@@casenut3562 Large cities in the United States are home to many impoverished neighborhoods. I'm Japanese, but this would never happen in Japan. This is an emergency and the government should intervene.
Not all homeless people are drug addicts. You have to see society, family members and governments that do not give them any help. They are people abandoned by their families and sometimes they are good people. Not everyone is a drug addict, there is too much evil on the street. Today it is them, tomorrow it is any of you. That's how it is.
There are only two ways to sove this problem, help them to be normal back, or give them mosquito poison then force them to drink it to speed up death. This is a great country America.
You may think that's the solution to the problem when actually they're happy with their life... come on this is America the land of freedom and human rights heaven...let them have fun...
The US government spend billion of dollars in warfare,,but they cannot spend million of dollars in homeless people!😢😢😢 How about the american billionaire? Share your blessing to the poor!
Its their choice every parent raise their children to be the best they can be in life ...but they choose drugs and become shameless ..every parent heart breaks and tears ...😭
@@denisestorey6923 I have lived part of my life with drugs But this concoction foreign countries have developed is very sad and is not going to end well for all who choose to try it The drug market is Different to what it was ,, very scary 🇦🇺🇦🇺
It has spiralled out of control. There are additional places neighborhoods of cities with the same scenario. Add to this the influx of millions illegals crossing the border into the US without any background checks, and the two major Mexican drug cartels, working on the ground through local gangs, spreading the deadly drug wherever they want. I think, looking from the outside, the USA is facing a national disaster.
I walk a lonely road The only one that i have ever known Don't know where it goes But it's home to me and i walk alone I walk this empty street On the boulevard of broken dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm only one and i walk alone I walk alone i walk alone My shadow's the only that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes, i wish someone out there will find me Till then walk alone
Human beings living in these conditions. Oh my God all ages of people even pregnant women. These people could be our brothers sisters our family. Are we not ashamed of ourselves that we drive by them on our way home to our comfortable beds food in the fridge, clean clothes. Where’s the government help, the churches. Are there no large halls where people could live .🙏❤️🇬🇧
@@uwefischer3193God did not do this. Satan runs this planet. God saves me daily or I could be one of those people. They need our love, prayers and understanding. Count your Blessings for one miss step and we could end up in their shoes. God Bless You!
This country still is beautiful . I think about Missouri , I have a special bond with Missouri which is a very beautiful place , deep in my heart forever ❤️ Sending my prayers to Tim , my love , I’ve been missing you every day , honey , I 🤍 youxxxxxxx RIP my love 🕊️
Nous sommes en 2023 et l'être humain est devenu pire qu'un animal avec ces drogues. C'est une catastrophe humanitaire.Quelle déchéance.... J'ai des petits enfants et je prie le Seigneur qu'ils ne tombent pas dans cette merde.
Is such a pain the see all this, in Asia especially Malaysia [ My home] Singapore [neighbour] Thailand [neighbour too] we dontnhave such crazy scenery 😮 the drugs is killing your people.
This should be illegal, these people need to be put in a institution until they can be a productive part of society. Its hard to see this great country fall so fast, unbelievable, Thanks OBAMA & BIDEN for all this, May God have Mercy !!
OMFG.. I thought South Africa was bad. Horror, but you know what.... self inflicted. I was an addict. You have the money, you decide to go buy, that means you know exactly what you doing. It's by choice. You get on it and then you need to make the biggest decision ever, to get off. Take the help and use it. Get off and stay off. No excuse.
There's a motto; "first-class civilization country with most large economic and most advance technology in the world".. but what kind 'pandemic' is that?.. horor..
Das ist unmenschlich und grausam, wo bleibt die Verantwortung des Landes und seiner Behörden, warum hilft keiner den kranken Menschen und ihren Familien?
who are we to judge someone on how they live ? or there circumstances? what makes us any different ? it is sad 😢 and heart breaking to see people so quick to judge them . you shouldn’t judge anyone under any circumstances because you don’t know what they have went through or what they are going through. Prayers to them and I pray for healing and restoration ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@s12_22gin this life we all make choices , and make mistakes , not any of us could say we have always made good choices ?? when I see people like this , it breaks my heart , because there lost , and in despair and they have given up on everything. If I was there I would shine my light and help them out of that dark tunnel .. god bless ❤🙏🏽🙏🏽
