📺WATCH NEXT - Kabul Rebah Hell:
Since the Taliban retook Kabul in August 2021, the humanitarian situation has deteriorated considerably. Afghanistan remains the world's largest producer of opium and the country also has high rates of addiction. The Taliban is trying to rid the country of heroin addicts, with particularly brutal methods

What difference does that make if the big guy gets his 10%, and I'm not talking about Big Mike..
Don't ever be ashamed to ask for help. Especially if you can't rely on family or friends or you have neither. I find people in general unfeeling, particularly those who never really struggled. Try finding people who actually keep promises - rare. Ask organizations/charities for help. Most importantly, strive to stay mentally and physically healthy because it may be the only thing you can rely on.
Well said and.genuinely honest.BLESS YOU🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks! Someone who gets it
Thank you for mentioning this. I'm in a situation like this. I have started traveling for work to make better money but was kicked out of where I was living.
I'm sorry that you're struggling. Make your mental and physical health the top priority. I'm ill so I'm at the mercy of others, but I'm mentally sharp though I need to fight depression. Trust yourself and I hope you have some family and true friends. Don't settle for less. @@christinasapp9726
I was a partially homeless student in California, and most organizations and charities are filled because there are so many other homeless, senior citizens homeless women, homeless women with children that sometimes young adults students get overlooked
The average person is only two paychecks away from possibly becoming homeless.
This is our future, unbelievable did not know that college students were among the homeless. Heartbreaking.
@lorettadavis6944 and also the President have trillions of dollars to give to the Ukraine and other countries and the citizen are lacking of so many things. Why is that? The President need to go.
No Vladimir. He isn't going anywhere. Trillions for Ukarine? lol lie much? And with the money that is given in aid, are you naive enough to believe it would be spent on social welfare here if not given? Of course it wouldn't. The GOP blocks all attempts to help the middle class and poor. And last thought, if Putin succeds in occupying Ukraine, then Belarus, Lithiuania, and Poland are next in line. The amount we will be forced to increase our defense spending by and the cost of aiding them will be many, many, many times the cost of aiding Ukraine. Critical thinking skills..get some!@@nkeiruka5930
college students lol among the dumbest out there first no jobs for even half of these idiots and who exactly will pay for this edgecation?
@@nkeiruka5930 because ignorant people vote instead of making demands
its not heartbreaking....It molds people, builds character.....Make you REALLY appreciate what you're working so hard for....
The most incomprehensible part of all this is that when these people finish their studies and go on and get a job, they become part of the system that had brought them to the situation where they were homeless! Instead of changing the system to protect others from what they went through, they join the system and become part of it!
Yeah. Absolutely I agree with you.
easier said than done right
Commiefornia for ya. I’m going back to San Francisco for my daughter and I don’t have a ton of money so I’ll have to find a boat to buy or live in a neighboring city that’s cheaper.

HOW SOON SOME PEOPLE WILL FORGET ABOUT THE STRUGGLES THEY WENT THROUGHT TO MAKE IT IN LIFE & WHEN YOU HAVE SOME PEOPLE THAT MADE IT SOME OR THE MAJORITY OF THEM WILL NOT REACH BACK & HELP THOSE THAT ARE IN THE BAD SITUATION THEY WERE ONCE IN NO CAPPING
I will never complain about anything for the rest of my life. I was prone to having "poor me" syndrome. I came across documentaries like this and a sudden wave of shame and entitlement rips throughout my body. I apologize.
Pain.
I am student at Cal Poly Humboldt and Chico State.Colleges such as Cal Poly Humboldt prohibits night parking for students who live out of their cars. Last month the school informed students camping in the campus parking lot that they can't stay there plus the police issued parking tickets.
Im grateful that I take all my classes online however my rent went up 100 % a few months ago. I am also grateful that my Fam was my landlord and didnt raise the rent for 12 years.
I recently moved since I had a housing voucher for San Bernardino and due to my Crohn's disease plus disc degenerative disease I got a medical accommodation (transfer). Yet and still the cost to survive is too inflated.
That is when students should protest and complain and get media involved. Did any of this happen? Sometimes you have to fight a bit for your rights.
I'm shocked, ashamed, angry, discouraged. How can they study when looking for a place to sleep?
I'm no longer ashamed to say I was also homeless @ 40 .... .It was LIFE ALTERING. But not in bad way... make you humble.
If you’re having to live in your car, he found a good place. At least you have the car for shelter! The thing is, he needs to rotate around, not stay in the same place every night. What really kind of sucked was living homeless in my car in NYC through the worst of the pandemic. There was literally no gym, no place open to use a restroom and wash up. Safety was a real concern being an older single female. I refused the shelters because of the health risk, the personal safety risk like rape, risk of theft, the noise all night, the filth, and the smell. People would tell me how sorry they were, how they’d pray for me, etc., but as for a place to stay, no!
I did escape when the roads were still closed, thanks to a deLormes atlas and driving at night on lots of tertiary roads. I’m safe now, living in a connection’s hunting lean-to in the middle of nowhere. I’ve no intention of returning to NY.
no places to rotate it's all locked down by the gestapo, move and you get harassed again. Cops love it cause it's easy money, not actual criminals just poor people so less danger. San Diego just made it so after 3 interactions they can literally take you to jail under the rule that you're refusing shelter.
If I could have been where you were,I would have helped you as much as I could have.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow. Wow. Respect to you.
It is unacceptable for someone with a family to be left homeless, no matter what the circumstances are.
I work for a homeless organization and the problem isn’t just in liberal cities as you’ve noted. The problem is all over the U.S. since rent prices skyrocketed during the pandemic. This isn’t a liberal vs conservative problem, it’s a problem because the government won’t take care of the elderly or our veterans that have built this country. Their social security benefits can’t cover rent after rent prices have increased up to $800 a month in a matter of just two years. Now that inflation has gone down, are these prices going to come back down to an affordable cost, or are landlords going to be greedy by keeping prices fixed? At least these college students are going somewhere in life that the problem won’t persist for long term. I just hope the problem doesn’t reoccur when they’re 55-60 years old like it has for our elderly.
I agree to a point but the republicans vote against anything to help the people. JS
This is one of so many reasons I've left California and left the States to work, study and teach in Europe. This is much more prevalent than people realise, and it is a uniquely American problem... like the mass shootings, the healthcare, the cost of higher education, the crushing debt... and it is not unique to California.
I'm not going back to the Deluded States. I cannot justify investing time and tax dollars into a "country" that perceives owning a assault rifles to be a human right while housing, healthcare, education, and mobility (public transport) are not human rights. To any American students watching this documentary, especially those considering a graduate degree, I want to recommend Germany or another European country. Do not waste another second of your time or talent on that corporate farce of a country that calls itself the "United States".
You are very lucky if you were able to leave the US. It's extremely expensive to do so, plus there are a million restrictions. Good for you for getting out, but keep in mind most of us can't.
@@alexcarter8807 I don't think moving from the US to Europe is expensive. For Americans getting European visas is not difficult.
Germany (and the whole of Europe) has a housing crisis too. Admittedly, it's not as bad as in California, but it's getting there.
We just don't have enough space anymore to accommodate everyone, especially with the influx of millions of refugees from Africa and the middle east.
The entire western world is in decline.
All demos/left running states/cities are dying and are barely on life support. It seems retail theft this year alone costs $95B. They pass on the costs to consumers or close the stores. Biden admin let in more than 8M illegals into the country including terrorists. The Democrats never accept responsibility for their own mismanagement. The tide is shifting for sure.
Come to Turkey and live in peace; education, health care, and hospitals are all free, housing is inexpensive, and the country is filled with natural beauty
I did the same thing back in the day.always on edge!
Sometimes you have to delay your goal of college education and focus on housing, and basic needs. College isn’t going anywhere.
It’s sad though.
A very thank you ARTE documentary. Good.
Thanks for watching!
Great documentary. I can totally relate. I was the homeless California college student in 2020. It's a horrible and terrible feeling trying to better yourself in life (during a global pandemic) in addition to the grind of looking for a place and a job. California Judges and Policy makers must wake up to the real life day-to-day that has become the California Nightmare.
I lived in in my car to attend college in California from 1976-1980. So did countless others I met at the time. So quit feeling sorry for yourself. You aren't special after all.
@@markde9904such compassion…
Why would we feel sorry for people who are expected to overcome the same obstacles that others have for generations? Zoomers think that every life experience is new and uique to them. It gets ridiculous.@@chrisbishop4671
@@markde9904different time and cops weren't Dck hds then like now serving corporate and few rich pricks only
Getting indoctrinated by liberals isn't bettering oneself.
You're not homeless my friend. You're houseless, don't be ashamed to look at your car, at least you have some my wall. I'll be back in my Van but I love it, I chose it. I do Van life live. Alternatively, downsides, you can work less and enjoy your life, and I'm more freedom. What do do it right? I have some money in your pocket which you probably don't worry about people think.
I would think parking in isolated area is more unsafe than maybe a wal mart parking or more populated place.
God bless him
I believe many college students are not only homeless, but are hungry and don't have clothing as well.
Young adults can’t buy homes in NYC and the outer neighborhoods. Now we have migrants and it’s a sh&t show. Pharmacy’s has closed and limited food supply
The end of us
Devin seems like a sweet guy. He really seems like a good person What is queer pansexual? I don’t know I feel confused. How and when did we start saying what we identify as? It’s very strange to me. Why is it necessary to tell strangers your most personal information. Seems like it’s none of anyone’s business what your sexuality is and it seems like no one wants to know anyway. Agin seems like Devin is a real nice guy
Hehe! I am also wondering what a queer pansexual is....Makes no sense to me...
I must say that Serbia is "Las Vegas" compared to the students' lives in the US. EACH AND EVERY student in Serbia, who wants to learn, can do it. There are university campuses and students' "hotels", which includes the Internet connection, students' restaurants, libraries and gyms for almost free of charge (let's say $20 per month). Also, there is a job board, so everyone can find a part-time job if needed. Scholarship costs 0 (zero, nada) for 1/3 best students.
Furchtbar, wie kann man so ein System gut finden. Gerade Studenten/Schüler, Menschen die sich weiterbilden sollte keine Geld, Essens oder Wohnraum sorgen haben. So kann man sich doch gar nicht konzentrieren auf den Stoff und das Leben.
Not everybody's going to make a rich my friend don't be ashamed because you didn't make it rich so what I'm also living and you're comfortable. That's what counts I didn't make it rich either but I don't care. I love my life just the way it is, but that's me.
I feel for these students. I was a college student in CA in the early 2000's. You can blame your CA politicians that have open borders and let unlimited illegals in. I'm a legal immigrant in the early 90's. Also high cost to build housing and NIMBYISM is another huge problem that adds to housing crisis. I have bad news for the future generations... life will only get worse. All your degrees including STEM and doctorate degrees will not guarantee decent life.
Are you being kept as a slave?
Don't forget the federal government guaranteeing student loans. There is no incentive for schools not to raise tuition, they get their money either way.
UBI now please help everyone with their basics.
Just found this video. I use to live in Chicago. The homeless persons name was Genevieve. I have a daughter named Genevieve and her husband's name is Anthony. What a coincidence.
When I see many homeless around the world, I thank my grandma who taught us early on not to take drugs or drink alcohol. She said if you want to be homeless one day, just abuse yourself by drinking and taking drugs. You will get there. I don’t. I run a normal life and come back up during life difficulties because I have a clear head to deal with them.
Good advices, not enough to be ok but still have to be applied
Gibt's diese Doku auch schon auf deutsch ? Falls ja; Könnte man die nicht in der Info Box verlinken?

This Is California. My state. I read the room and made sure to front run these issues.
Education is overrated, a waste of time and money
A better title or caption for this video clip would be, "casualties of capitalism"! 😐
This is happening to Australian students in some parts of the country too, but nowhere near the extreme of America. The problems with American unis seem to be staggering by comparison. In Europe, there isn't a tuition so to speak, but there are students who are still economically disadvantaged and struggle with accommodation. For all our problems though, I'm glad the majority of students here are not trying to pursue degrees in the United States.
The cost of tuition for Australian public Universities exceeds the cost of most USA public universities by a very large margin. And with the current complete lack of any housing in virtually all of Australia, your comments seems to be nothing more than manhood envy. Oh BTW a 3 year Bachelor degree from an Australia is not recognised in almost every country outside of Australia as the standard is 4 years of study.Thie students that go to the USA for their degrees have far far more opportunity upon graduation than thjise who stayed in Au
yeah the US has A LOT of problems
@@vikm1341The USA has a lot of problems as does most every developed nation. The UK is far worse off with a non existant economy and a housing crisi severy bit as bad. The difference is that due to the domninbation of US media, our problems are over sensationalised while others aren't even mentioned creating a very false view
I am half German, these stories are nothing unique to the US.
I witnessed Germany going through this era in the 1980s unemployment was high and housing was very tight. German fees and taxes also zapped peoples abilities to live a normal existence. Gasoline was sold by the liter and super expensive.
I had car insurance $100 per month ($1,200 per year in 1989) and that was just liability coverage not covering any damage to the car.
being a roommate or bouncing from couch to couch as a student , was normal for many decades. You go where you can get best tuition and programs, and that means commutes to far from your parents house. American culture frowns on young adults living with their parents(shameful, and weird) but that is changing. In Europe some people never leave home
If I teach my children anything, it's going to be basic financial literacy. So important to understand the cost/benefits ratio of education. Many people would be better off starting a small business with a 5k loan than 100k in debt for a college degree.
The home town matters with that 5k loan for a business establishment .
So no professional life, no doctors or lawyers or scientists? Everyone is not meant to be a plumber or electrician we need more critical thinking skilled people to create innovation and technology to move the human Race forward. It’s currently moving backwards because people lack understanding in mathematics 🧮
You think you understand financial literacy but can't comprehend the fact that the wages don't pay the rent and you won't get paid well without some kind of degree unless you're phenomenally gifted and lucky. Furthermore most are in the bracket where they receive financial aid, not enough, but more than they'd make by McDonald's alone, making school itself a financial necessity after grants and scholarships. $5000 won't start a business in most big cities, not even close.
@@JustGoAndFly That's not even one month's rent .
yup cost and investment always related. you got your point
I cried for this man! I want give him a hug 🫂 for all he’s been through hopefully he sees this and know that he’s not alone
I work as a caregiver
the worst thing on this documentary were the croissants they were looking dead . im french btw XD
Really sad
ITS NOT JUST MILITARY PEOPLE THAT CAN END UP HOMELESS
We can't do things on our own all the time, that's why we ask for HELP ME PLEASE.
To be honest when i see this i only can say one thing. LONG LIVE EUROPE (The only place in the world where you work to life instead life to work) USA is becoming a SHAME
The USA is a third world country, a failed state.
This happens in Europe too
True but not on a massive scale when i think about California i see Sunshine and Homeless people and fat people.@@musicguy20
Happening in Europe too. Here in France it's really bad.😢
Well as more and more migrants descend on Europe resources become stretched and the milk of human kindness stops at a certain point. When native people cannot find work due to migrants working harder than native people are prepared to work and they will work for less money, it starts a downward spiral. People cannot find a good paying job, they cannot afford an apartment or even a room as demand now outstrips supply. Medical services become stretched, education services become stretched and there is no end in sight to the migration happening and it is only going to get worse as areas of the world experience severe weather conditions or earthquakes ect. I don't blame the migrants by the way as I would do whatever it took to provide for my own family including going thousands of miles away to secure a job and send money back to them.
Park at different apartment complexes as well as 24 hour stores rotate them. I pray your life gets better real soon.
Yo , we’ve heard the same rhetoric about making a difference, making things easier and equitable for all people for hundreds of years… the Great Depression, the dust bowls , 2008, but instead we’re seeing more people worse off than a decade ago or even a century ago
Homelessness, Ought Not to be present in the United States of America.THIS is OBSCENE that HOMELESSNESS Exists in the United States of America🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Most homeless don’t want to be helped!! That’s the damn truth! Many are addicts that do not give a crap about responsibility, accountability and getting back into being productive in society
Nothing like the beautiful Europe…😍😍😍
The thing about living. Alternatively, when living actuallyadh or Van. Do not park alone in a parking lot. Or place where you're the only car. Because you're attract more attention when you're the only one I say blending with other vehicles if possible.
im a college student in calif., hungry & homeless... today im a dumpster driver (aka free-gan) one more year and i'll get my masters degree in education.
You should invest in buying a Van my friend and turn it into a nice home and a high top Van. The spending of good used vans all over the place turn to a home. You got plenty of space to live in just like a room. And you'll never have to look for a place to pay rent. Never, if you do it right I don't. I'll never pay high rent again never.
please post some ressources/proof about that "anthony white" guy running for city council. can't find anything online. thank you!
Y?!
Most politicians don't give a d***, don't care and I don't think you're any different as a politician as long as you make your money and everything you'll forget about the homeless just like everybody else cause if you didn't there would not be so much homeless people in. America today. The fact that there is a lot of homeless people prove that point.
Politicians are not fu kin demigods! Most people literally blame them for everything. Enough with the bullsh. T! How about personal responsibility? You want the government to literally fix all your problems?
Fifty years ago, education was free in Australia. After fifty years of neoliberal governments, our young people get themselves into deep debt just to study - it seems where the US leads, Australia must follow.
People realise they can benefit off of student debt so it becomes a thing because both university and individuals can get rich off of it
I'm from the States, and I studied and worked in Australia for 3 years in the early 2000s. My family is low-income, but we were fortunate to never be homeless. We had no healthcare though. In Sydney, I paid international tuition plus a mandatory fee for health coverage through Medibank Private. It was still a fraction of the cost of what I had paid to study for one year in the States (where I am from). And, Australia was the first place that I ever lived where I had healthcare. As a child, I was not taken to the doctor because of the cost, so it was quite an adjustment to think that I could go to the doctor in Australia when I got sick.
I was allowed to apply for permission to work up to 20 hours per week as an int'l student in Australia. I could work off campus anywhere that would hire me. During breaks between semesters, I could work an unlimited amount of hours. Int'l students in the States are not allowed to do this. I finished university in Australia completely debt-free while my former US classmates are still paying off their degrees. The only thing I had to pay for was a foreign transcript evaluation (about $250) once I left Australia.
No matter how bad things get (and I realise the situation is deteriorating there), on its worst day, Australia cannot not be as disgraceful as the Deluded States are on their best day. But... if the situation in Australia becomes increasingly dire, I will say the same to Aussie students that I say to Americans. Move to Europe.
Education and health still cheaper than USA especially California.
Outside of Germany I can't name one country with free college. Australian public univerisities now charge more for tuition than most USA private schools. New Zealand offers ONE free year, only if you have never enrolled in any univeristy, ever previously, and after the first year, the rest of your education will be stupidly expnesive...UK..need I go on? It's not countries follwoing the USA it is countries submitting to the will of low or no tax for large corporations and the rich.
No. Idiots in America love Rupert Murdock for telling lies and keeping them stoopido. Useful idiots for corporate oligarchs. Demorats and rethuglicans. Americans have been too stoopido to live since saint Ronny reagan' and slick Willie Clinton. Not to blame you or Australia. Predatory capitalism and the Almighty dollar did it. Get rich or die. Mission accomplished.
Wonder what made our US government start helping the Homeless Veterans...just asking.
Why do they always claim temperature extremes that don't exist. The coldest temperature ever measured in Chicago was -33 Celsius, not -40 Celsius.
no one cares
@@markde9904I'm sure YOU don't care, like most intellectually defective people.

Tough times make tough men
I once in my life attempted this logic. But it's not true. So many guys I knew who grew up in the urban cities of the Bay Area, died before the age of 22 thinking that being tough would get them far. We need to nix old saying like that which may have worked for its time. But not in 2023.
@@TheIHVPNetwork the guys you’re talking about dying by 22 aren’t struggling college students. Black males would rather be a rapper or a football player. They will do whatever it takes except get an education.

Young Millennials! If you're going to apply for college near and far follow these steps:
1. Have a scholarship and granrts ready to cover housing, books and other fees.
2. If you can't get housing stay with your parents or relatives until you have finances ready to move into your new home.
3. Don't be afraid to ask for help, problemsolve and take initialative actions for your survival on this world. Because NO ONE is going give you a doggy treat for your woes!
I pay my way to college and now I a successful filmmaker!
Do you think scholarships are handed out like sweets? They are very rare and only given to outstanding students. Secondly, more often than not, they are not full scholarships. You are still expected to cover some of the costs. Thirdly, do not assume everyone has a nice stable suburban family to depend on. Thirdly, what 'new home' are you talking about? Even working people are now homeless because of shortages of affordable housing and/or exorbitant rising rents. Think!
omg. i’m not crying. your crying 😢
You're not your.

Why what people don't fail to dwell people fail to tell you is work hard and you'll make it put in all the work you'll make it. That's not necessarily true plenty people work hard and they know they're not better off than they were when they were born before, so it's b*******, they're democracy and freedom thing is cuckoo ball.
America is NOT a democracy. No where is democracy in our Constitution. Your education is crap if you don't know that. Freedom doesn't mean an easy life. Learn to do something valuable and you'll be fine. Don't expect anyone else to pay your way. Stop bitching. Be grateful. That's how to be happy and successful.

I was in Zürich Switzerland also homeless during my study 2014-1015- and I lived in a homless motel- on the univeristy, because the Kanton and City Zürich forgot to build home for students and the universitiy has`nt also stipendium for poor students. And today I `m also homless 3th times in Zürich, because the flats are very expensive. This countrry hasn`t never social flats. Switzerland doesn`t know, what is social or supporting the poor peoples. These rich countries shit about the peoples overall. That is the reason, why do you have very aggressive protests in Switzerland now. You have lot of poor peoples in Switzerland. Only 10% are rich. And this 10% shits about the slaves. Switzerland is not only racist, chauvinist and antisemit and pedophil, but also was built for rich peoples. You have here kings and slaves. These are now the two society classes.

Well if not suits you…get out of the place….
@goodvibeschoen does this person have the means, why not ask someone why do they stay if they are so unhappy instead of telling someone to get out. There could be many reasons why someone stays somewhere for example joint custody of a child, taking care of a disabled parent, family member or friend, or even having no means of leaving. Its quite ignorant to tell someone to leave if they are unhappy.
Thanks for bringing it back to what it's about homelessness not about attacking an entire country like some want to make it about. I'm very doubtful a single country in the world doesn't have any homeless people. Yet there's the ignorant comments.
Thge media in the USA tries to make people belive these are unique problems to the USA. They are not. I am currently living in New Zealand.There are a whole lot of homeless in Auckland. Prior I was in Brisbane. again, plenty of homeless but they are kept out of sight. Do a google search on the unhoused in the UK. It is a staggering problem that keeps getting worse.
Pretty much every developed nationa has been underbuilding for decades. Why? to please the rich. How you ask? New development means, new roads, schools, sewers, hospitals on and on..things that tax dollars pay for. And the rich have it made it clear government will not tax them. Second reason. the rich own homes and alot own numerous investment properties. Equity firms own millions of homes. Lots of new homes means the price of their holdings doesn't grow. So government stifles new development to insure exisitng dwellings skyrocket in value so the rich get richer.
Never a better place to be homeless than California. Illegals should go there. It is almost never cold and they pay great state benefits than any other state. Go for the gold.
NO NO NO incurring a half of a million in student debt is NOT all that important! think of it in real terms 10 12 15 years of college and mikky dees is the best you can do? you dont need 15 years of college to teach you to think before jumping off a cliff only to realize you cant fly Seriously i could have told you that and so could any kid under age 2
This is reality, this is beyond f..ed up! Sad truth! American Nightmare!
When is the US government going to wake up and start paying attention to what is wrong with this country and fix it instead of fixing every other counties problems? They are allowing this country and its citizens to go to hell with our taxpayer money. But we can take care of people coming here illegally instead of our own and due to the pathetic battle for who gets their own way in our congress right now it just allows it to get worse.
crazy countri of america whice they want looked super power enter sight but they no want know about they civil.
