Poverty in the USA: Being Poor in the World's Richest Country | ENDEVR Documentary

[@ENDEVRDocs]

In 2019, 43 million people in the United States lived below the poverty line, twice as many as it was fifty years before. 1.5 million children were homeless, three times more than during the Great Depression in the 1930s. Entire families are tossed from one place to another to work unstable jobs that barely allow them to survive. In the historically poor Appalachian mining region, people rely on food stamps for food. In Los Angeles, the number of homeless people has increased dramatically. In the poorest neighborhoods, associations offer small wooden huts to those who no longer have a roof. It’s not getting better. It seems to be getting worse.

@@Chris-yy7qc SO RIGHT! I grew up in a mill town (school years were 1959-1972), and what you described was exactly the situation. None of the moms in the neighborhood had jobs, though a few might have done a LITTLE of something like baking pies or cakes to sell or maybe something like making alterations to clothes, just to make a bit extra, but generally speaking, there was ONE household income most of the time only 40 hours per week. AND this was in non union jobs where we lived, which also provided on the job training. Our high school even had job skills classes that trained students for the work they would be applying for a graduation. A lifetime with the same company, fair pension, no worries. The biggest company in town was locally owned, and though the owners were millionaires, they were not BILLIONAIRES, which is probably a big part of the difference. Also they had they attitude of "Let's see if we can hire a few more people this year" rather than "Let's see how many jobs we can cut"

[@JacqueScherrer]

We actually have free healthcare, called Medicaid, for the poor disabled. It doesn’t include dental, though. Dental is overlooked here. Even gainfully employed people who have medical and dental insurance (dental is a separate insurance) pay a lot for dental because the insurance doesn’t cover much. I don’t understand it because bad dental health can lead to other medical issues. My son is disabled and I have paid for a lot of his dental care because I can, thankfully. All of that said, this video seems skewed. There are a lot of things here that I don’t agree with. There are a lot of services available here for poor and working poor people. We mostly have a problem with not everyone being able to access affordable healthcare. Even the “affordable healthcare act” that was passed with Obama, medical insurance is expensive. It’s a law now that everyone must have insurance but it’s very expensive unless your poor and has high deductibles so a lot of people who have this insurance can’t afford to use it. The Affordable Healthcare Act” did make it so that insurance companies can’t deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions, but then the insurance is to expensive with the high deductibles that cause people to still not seek treatment because they have to pay out of pocket to meet that deductible before the insurance will cover. The government needs to do a better job to make medical care affordable and accessible to all. You either have to be poor or have a job with good insurance. Anyone in between suffers.

Finding a job was extremely difficult and I could not keep up with rent, landlord was not understanding and so I had to break my lease and leave. Thankfully I had family I could rely on a few hours away who I stayed with until I got back on my feet, but not everybody has that support system, and if I hadn't I would be homeless.

I will never forget the first time I met the first dog I've ever had in my life, two strays surviving together on this cold, barren rock.

@@trashawnbritt4681 You're welcome.

Then being a stay-at-home parent doesn't mean you're at home 18 years, you can go out and get a job when the kids become independent. It's hard having two parents working with an infant, both are losing sleep for the care of their child and stressing over work and Bills. It's easier with one parent focusing on the other. My job for over 10 years didn't have paid leave nor paid sick time. So I definitely couldn't have a baby. I could, but work wouldn't be paying me. We didn't even get paid vacations. It took a new job taking over that offered such benefits, but at that time we were racking up in hospital Bills.

My boss found out that I was doing all of this and he let me stay in a hotel room (I work at the Hilton Garden Inn at a fancy restaurant inside of it) luckily I have great bosses and co workers. I was hiding this from them but this summer heat was brutal. Tonight is my 3rd day in the Hotel room. I'm from Southern California and moved out on my own to Utah and have been here for 5 years. So it's a blessing to be in this hotel room as I type this. I still feel mentally numb, being homeless does affect your mental state. I lost a lot of stuff that I accumulated all of those years in my apartment even my fiancée who I was going to marry, my cats and furniture. But I was helped by my band mates and boss.

I am homeless with my 2 children. My 1 son is autistic. We stay in our van mostly but try to stay in motels when we can. Because of the kids I can't stay in the van every day. I wasn't always like this. I lived over 30 years without experiencing homelessness. Because of so many on welfare I have applied several times and even had some social workers help me but there's ALWAYS a mess up on the end of the welfare dept because they just have too many people on welfare and not enough workers to answer phones so u can easily fix something they've messed up. Instead u have to wait over 6 weeks to even find out they've messed up and then start over. And it takes all day so when u have to live day by day u don't have time to keep doing that. Then when we have emergencies I CANNOT let my kids freeze, or go hungry, or without ANYTHING they need I will sometimes have to hold a sign to ask for help. Horrible people see I have a vehicle and I'm clean and my kids are clean and say your not homeless ! Your too clean ! U got a van ! Like they don't realize that the majority of people they see asking for help are drug addicts that don't spend the $ on food or cleaning products. And I had help getting this vehicle because mine was in such bad shape it kept breaking down and because I had no credit it cost me almost $600 a month ! This newer one costed me $300 a month with my trade in van which someone helped me to pay off the last couple grand and put the vehicle in their name so the payments would be low enough. But people don't get out and ask questions. They just assume and judge and look down on others. That's not people of God ! Because People of faith don't treat others like that.

I am a Landlord in UK and I always pay around $20( £15) RENT ON TIME insurance a month for each property so even if the tenant does not pay, my agency's insurance covers it up. I don't quite understand why this cannot happen in the US.

You need a guarantor or an insurance agency paid by the tenant to rent an apartment or a house in Japan, & your guarantor's financial situation (statement of income, tax returns) is verified.

From another hand, when the US takes care of its own people, i.e. more relief to US citizens ! No more homelessness and better security to all, instead of igniting wars here and there, or sending bombs to be dropped over the civilians of Gaza. The thing that US citizens couldn't stop with all their protests to cease fire on Gaza. In that sense, foreign countries who boycott USD will be allies to the US citizens.
