I feel like covid changed everything. During the 2 yr both state and federal gave out a lot of "free" money. Basically you stayed at home, did nothing and got paid. on top of it, a lot of people didn't have to pay rent. Afterwards all those benefits stopped, so people actually have to work, but they didn't want to earn min. wages, so they restore to stealing. And because those benefits stopped, it created a lot of homeless. I lived in CA for almost 30 yrs, this is how I feel about this state. I left the following msg on someone else' post: 我覺得這個國家整體素質一年不如一年。 每天新聞就是打,搶,撞了路人都是先跑為上路。 每天生活都有一種憂鬱感。 當然大部分還是好人,但也有許多人也變得越來越自私。
We had shoplifting, breaking , robbery since 2014. This actually happened to me in 2015 , our house got intruded and police told us its useless to suit them. They will be released the next day, don’t guarantee what they will do to your home if they find out you suit them.
Can you go to West Europe next time? And please if possible to add some content regarding rail services in Europe, as it is very different from what we known for in Taiwan and the Mainland. I really hope you can go to Europe to take videos about train trips like the German High speed train or the Eurostar services, etc.
You are so brave and calm when you see the robbery. Thank you for sharing the real situation in LA. I hope this situation will be improved soon......as LA have many beautiful sides as well
