Searching for Hope: Homeless in Sacramento

I was homeless in Sacramento, early 90's. I got my self out of it. I did not use drugs, drink, I lived on P street at the time a new program was happening, a old hotel was being turned into studio's. I got in one. I also got myself out of there after my baby, I keep out of the issues and trouble. I'm one of the lucky ones.

I was staying at the Quality Inn in Rochester looking for an apartment in April 2024. I rode my electric bike 30 me with one leg to get there. I had an appointment with my therapist I went to Rochester and I found a homeless man he thought he had a house and he was a doctor and he was staying in one of those bus terminal shelters from the 1930s or before and he was really happy that I even talked to him because nobody talks to them. They are human beings they deserve people to look at them not look down at them not look away from them look at them!! They are human beings they can be your grandfather it could be your kid out there in the street no people don't care about others anymore😢 I really don't like the United States of America for allowing people to be homeless while they give all that money to everybody in the world it makes me really sad and want to die.. I live in Batavia New York where they treat people like dogs if you complain they take the landlord side on Section 8 and you will be homeless I'm almost homeless cuz I asked my scumlord to fix something that's the truth I don't lie I'm not the one that got $160,000 from a person like me for living in their house they're the ones getting rid of poor people now they're trying to make my apartment into a three-bedroom with a lot of help from padstone / sucks and 8 yeah should be p a d s t o n e cuz you got a bunch of neurotic women working there who hate men the hate men who raised their children like I did and they will put you out of the street and make you wish you were dead and nobody will help you I want to help you move they won't help you pay to move they won't help you find a place to move to they don't do a f****** thing for homeless people where I live nothing but they will take your Section 8 in a heartbeat and give it to their friend Becky Hoke calling the cops on me in Batavia New York because I called Jennifer 100 times cuz I'm going to be homeless and nobody ever answers the phone they got a home they're nice and happy lap Liquors I can't stand these people I don't want to live anymore not like this I can't wonder if I'm going to have a place to live I wonder if my death would save someone else from being homeless get rid of evil people at the Section 8 PathStone where they put you out in the street and take the landlord side and make me homeless I'll be down there with them cuz I don't want to freeze to death in the f****** Western New York winner hopelessness is homelessness don't think of them as aliens or bad people they are human beings and they deserve respect I'd rather be at a party with a bunch of homeless people that a bunch of Rich scumbags like my slumlord he needs to be made to suffer like the rest do

I used to work with Section-8 tenants in Sacramento placing tenants into houses. I had to quit because it was too frustrating. Too many people who don't need it get it and the people who need it don't. It was so stupid. Almost every tenant I worked with had a bf who was riding on their girl's voucher while selling drugs or doing something under the table. Some even had brand new Escalades! Just because they know how to file papers doesn't mean they deserve it. The people who really need it aren't good at filling papers and following up. That's why they don't get it.

[@elviscobb5922]

Serious question. Let me understand. If you are capable of filling out the paperwork then you receive the benefits. Along with the application forms aren't there requirements beyond the application. For example, tax forms,statements from individuals saying that the person does in fact live along. Statements of proff of health issues, proff of looking for employment, etc. I don't know how things work there. I honestly wonder. Thank you for what you have done in the past.

@@MyLoveIsEmi economists have studied the problem of societies where 1% of a population always seem to come out on top and the basic problem is that no matter which societal model you use there always is an outcome where some people have more and some less even in games of chance. Take monopoly for example play enough rounds some small part of the group comes out ahead. In other words this is the expected outcome and there is no other societal model that derives different outcome e.g. socialism or communism even that produced elite 1% that ran the shit show. Look at North Korea their upper crust enjoys wealth beyond measure. No matter how you stack it the fairest model is still capitalism where chance,luck, greed, intelligence,hard work and brains still all have a factor in outcomes. But make no mistake there will be a 1% so complaining about your lack of gaming skills or other people’s lack of gaming skills is useless as whatever skills or luck is lacking would lack again in some other model for some other groups.

I was homeless for three years. There is so much more to the story than this. I met many people, mostly women some men, like myself with college degrees (Master's PhD's) which were blacklisted or targeted and out on the streets from a string of bad events (health issues, down sizing, foreclosure). None of them were doing drugs or drinking. There are also a lot of Veterans who are not mentally ill or addicts that are homeless. Why? I asked why... why is one Veteran driving a $90,000 truck and have a huge home and another Veteran is homeless on the streets? (Which is disgraceful these men and women served our country). When I asked some of the veterans on the street they would tell me it's because they spoke out against the government or military. I personally do not believe most homeless people start out mentally ill, however, when you are placed in this environment of survival it doesn't take long to become paranoid (and rightfully so). I had a rare vantage point and I saw two extremes from those whom were not homeless; extreme kindness and such extreme hatred and cruelty that I could barely believe this is my country. Look deeply and you can glean the truth. I am not saying all, but look at the shelters. Most are non profits that receive not only government funding but monetary community donations. Look at the cars the people that run these shelters are driving. Cadillac Escalades, BMW's. Why? There are many criminal aspects in the big picture. The very people that "supposedly" are there to improve the lives of the homeless prey on them. Big Pharma, State Medicaid, Hospitals and our society all fan the fire. Greed and power (many shelters have ex military or ex cops working or volunteering). I have never seen such a misuse of human power. Why don't you expand this segment on the homeless and cover these issues? One more thought to those of you out there like Mick in this video, it only takes one disease and a couple of tragic events and this could be you. I think Elenor Roosevelt summed up the world's problem of inhumanity best: "When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?"

As large as my family is, no body was willing to take me in for a while. Through God's good grace, I made it through. There are no bathrooms for homeless people. Not one business is willing to let homeless into their business, just to get warm. Places like McDonalds or 7-11 charge for a cup, not counting the water. There is no place to even cook. Most parks are closed at night. Then they start making laws that you can't sleep in your car. They just block any way possible for the homeless to survive. We have to start making things possible for people to live. Give these people what every one else takes for granted, like bathrooms. Access to services, at the places they are at, not offices that are too far away to walk etc.

Food could even get donated from big food stores to reduce maintenance costs. If its done right and with a little bit of promotion 95% of homeless would go there. There should be a free bed in a tent for everybody that needs one. Those towns could be driven by up to 100% volunteers. No homeless in the streets, less crime, less police officers needed. Thats a win win situation for everybody. This is such a nobrainer, and its a realy cheap solution, but seems like the government just does not want to help.

I have a nephew out there living that life. He is mentally ill and is an addict. There's literally nothing you can do as a family to rescue a loved one in that situation. He refuses treatment because he's not in his right mind. Unless he becomes an imminent threat to himself or others, no one can force him into treatment. If you give him money, it goes straight to drugs. Because he's psychotic at times, it's not safe to let him stay with anyone. He hit my sister (his mother) once and that was the end of him staying there, even for a night. We've gotten him into shelters and programs but his mental health issues always get him kicked out. He's bipolar with psychosis and he's just a lot to deal with. He was committed to San Francisco General Hospital's Psych department for nine months and it was the best we had seen him in decades. They medicated his mental illness and got him off drugs. He was almost like his old self - he was lucid and had his old personality back. But when he was discharged, he eventually stopped taking his meds and went into a downard spiral. So my sister occasionally gets him a room so he can spend a night out of the cold and she'll feed him if he's hungry (or I will). But that's all we can do. It's heartbreaking and infuriating.

Most of these people have mental health issues. My own story is I had my own place but developed mental health issues - severe depression, insomnia, anxiety & phobias. In the end I did not take care of my apartment - never threw trash out so it became a real mess inside. Luckily my mom ask me to move back in with her. If it wasn't for her I would have been on the streets. I'm grateful. I'm getting better with meds but still have issues with my mental health. Maybe I'll always have issues I dunno. It's tough & I feel for these people on this video. It can be almost impossible for most ordinary folk to understand when you're brain isn't right.

[@bullballsallday]

Many of them do a variety of services. The problem is that it's become out of hand. Many of them came from out of state due to the good weather and tolerance of homeless people as well as petty crimes thanks in large part due to California Proposition 47 where someone can steal just below $950 and get a ticket and one day in jail.

Anyone that is on social security or disability are just 30 days from being in this situation. One missed or stolen check. One time maybe a bad choice with your money and thsts it. Homeless. I lived in a halfway house for 2 years to just have a shared room. It was a good learning experience. My health is much worse now and i just could not do it. I pray i am never in that situatiin again.

raise taxes to help the homeless. homeowners raise rent to cover the increased taxes. More people go homeless. Raise the taxes again, the homeless really need help. Increased taxes also increase the cost of living. More homeless......

[@binomejia8169]

Taxes only goes to your libtards politicians...thats why they don't want to leave thier positions in the goberment.

[@daieast6305]

@slam jammer: there are many other consequences to helping homeless such as laws that impede the individual rights or private property rights. i would have been considered as homeless way back before anybody was called homeless and always felt that the earth was my home but the authorities often disagreed. these days too much of so-called help to the homeless is political gain for the government and it's so-called 'workers' and nothing really goes to the homeless. just another fraud part of the election corruption and a two party military/industrial complex.

[@MajBunl]

@Destiny tran the only reason they can only raise taxes that much a year is because of Prop 13 from many years ago when taxes were being raised outrageously all the time- since then the politicians keep trying to get rid of it, and are trying again now, so pay attention when it comes time to vote & tell all the people you know also. That law protects every homeowner.

[@garybrunecz7785]

But there is always endless amounts of money for war and none for the poor. They want to protect me and then they neglect me. They never pay the slaves enough so they can get free, just enough to stay alive so they can come back to work.

[@MajBunl]

they do allot a very large amount of money to provide free education up through high school, and in most states, pretty cheap junior college so you can learn enough to be able to learn more and get a better paying job. True, I am not all that impressed with a lot of the schools and teachers, but then you still can learn on your own- I taught myself most of what I used for my jobs and paid for all my own education with no loans.

I was an addict - ten years - pills mainly … but, I totally understand this cycle . One day I took a look at my miserable life and decided ENOUGH. Whatever it took - I did it . 1 day at a time . That was a few years ago . And I now am in a program that helps me not crave opiates . So , I am able to afford my home , and go to my job daily . I’m in healthcare . So thank goodness jobs are plentiful - even thru a pandemic 😷. I know every person has different a mentality and different stories of how did they get there .

Yes and no. Living paycheck to paycheck means nothing. I live mostly paycheck to paycheck but that doesn't mean I don't pay my bills on time or contribute to my 401K or IRAs. You can live on the edge and be responsible and if things fall apart you pick yourself up and move to where the opportunities lie. If you choose to live in a tent for months on end then ultimately that choice is yours.
