I was living in LA years ago during the recession and ended up a 6 month stint homeless living in a rent a car. Eventually saved up enough to get a place. The homeless problem in LA and other areas is really bad. Almost everyone I knew and met there confessed to being homeless at one time or another but we did at least have cars to sleep in. I imagine the situation being much worse doing that without a car. The make shift tents and boxes on the streets was a sad sight.

Also I recall at the time they had set up a "tent city" at the city center. So if you went there to do anything for permits, drivers license etc you had to deal with being barraged with homeless begging for money and cigarettes. It was astounding how many people were living like that. I guess they allow this there as there is no where else to put them. In other areas there are woods etc to hide them. Not in the city though.

The big show stopper is drugs are not tolerated, not even prescribed marijuana or opiates. But perfect for non users on Social Security.

Other countries throughout LatinAmerica have an even higher percentage of home ownership. In the US home ownership is 67.8% with 62.9% of them mortgaged, A huge difference in nearly all Latin Countries is tthe land itself is owned by families and never sold, And common for 3 generations of family or brothers and sisters to live together albiet separate houses or apartments.

I go to the US and no matter the city encounter beggars within a couple hours. In nearly 8 years in Central America, South America, the Caribbean and Europe, not once have I seen a beggar. They always will have something to sell or offer tto do work. nce a double amputee in a wheel chair was selling candy and jewelery he made. Not only did I buy some, but gave him $700 emptying my pockets except for 30 Cordobas (about $5). Two weeks later he had a small shop selling the same things but a very expanded stock. 6 months after that he also had a small resataurant. A prime location just across the street from Parque Central where I had met him. My dad was an amputee from events in WWII, so seeing this man still proud and making a living for himself decided to give him additional opportunity. One thing is they also have National Health Care and everything is provided. A littly project of mine has been providing cellphones for the blind here allowing them to see ahead using an application with proimity and laser sensors to covert the information to sound.

It is NOT due to any of those things. It is the result of LAZINESS by the people who are homeless (I used to be one of them), and, it is the result of the community not doing enough to offer alternatives. If these people committed to getting off the streets and making their lives better, they could do it. Then the community could do it's part by providing more education, jobs and opportunities for everyone. Trust me, it CAN be done. There is plenty of blame to go around for this shit, but, it starts with the individual person who is homeless.

That is the individuals's responsibility. Most of the homeless DO NOT WANT ANY HELP!!! I was homeless before, and, many of the people I talked to REFUSED to seek help or assistance. Homelessness has NOTHING to do with outsourcing or globalization. There are plenty of jobs out there if a person looks and really wants one.

However, I now live in Virginia and I have seen some spots just like that because rent is out of control, housing is out of control and something needs to be done to rectify the situation that we face.

@@reefer2917 *most prosperous nation* USA has the highest GDP as a nation. It also has vast natural resources. *15% owning everything* Income inequality. USA has a problem with this as it has the highest income inequality among the industrialized nations. It is a big problem. However, the private ownership of the train is not an issue since we do not use it. And it is not true as AMTRAK is funded by the federal government. Private ownership is not a problem as long as there is competition and good service. Government works with the private companies to provide services to the non-profitable areas. *Healthcare* We do have a universal healthcare. However, due to the massive illegal immigration, the law makes it so that you have to register for it. You cannot simple get free care as other nations do. The real problem is the cost. We pay the highest cost for a mediocre healthcare. *Homelessness* We have a government program for everything including food, healthcare and housing. The drugs and mental illness prevents many people from taking advantage of it. For example, we had covid relief problem during the pandemic. Unfortunately, you had to sign up for it. There are other issues. High crime rate, drugs, massive illegal immigration, taxation, giant military spending and so on. Our problems runs deep.

From just watching the first 10 minutes, what I see is a sufficient number of vacant buildings to help address the need for housing. Convert the selected buildings into housing and within the structure provide services such as medical/mental health. How do we pay for this, by a more equitable and sensible tax structure, stopping foreign aid, especially to countries that don't need it. Many of these people are vets, many others of them didn't choose mental illness, it was a sorry fate, they didn't deserve it, they need help. Bust up the 1%, the parties over.

I am looking at this from the safe haven that we call Ireland 🇮🇪. How can the wealthiest nation on the planet have so many of these dreadful situations. I've said it before, but this is what can happen in any country that doesn't have a proper Social Welfare system. It appears that the " land of the free " only applies to those who are well off. Everyone who isn't well off, can fall through the cracks and nobody in authority gives a damn. Billions are being spent on sticking their nose into other countries business, while disasters like this are happening in more and more cities. Shame on those in authority in every county,every state and especially, shame on the Federal government. 🇮🇪🙏🙏🙏Gerry Farry

LEGAL immigration is more of a problem than illegal immigration. Each year we legally immigrate ~2 million people into the USA. The vast majority are from south of the US border. Most of these immigrants are the “poorest of the poor”, who are illiterate in their own language. ~70% of Latino immigrants get on some form of welfare. Texas is projected to go blue by 2028, due to massive legal immigration of Latinos from south of the border. These Latinos will vote for themselves the hardworking tax payers money. When Texas goes blue, it will never be red again due to redistricting. A blue Texas will rapidly follow in California’s footsteps.
