  • California's Homeless Crisis: Despite a massive $267 billion investment, California's homeless population soars. As of January 2024, California had over 381,000 people experiencing homelessness. Representing more than 27% of the national total despite having only 12% of the population. Is California's billions of dollars in homelessness spending a cautionary tale or a roadmap to success?

    267 billion? Most people don't have any idea how much money we're actually talking about.

      Hmm how many houses can we buy with 267 billion.. Atleast 667,500 if they were to be 400k each.

    Another video said that 120 billion would end hopelessness in the entire country. People being paid outrageous salaries on committee's have no incentive to solve it.

    They can triage homeless to primary care, connected to ER to lower costs. They did it when I went to ER out there.

    It seems those normal people are very dirty. Some people believe you have to have a sick mind for wanting to live like that to begin with. Waste Management needs to supply recycling and waste cans. There's overcrowding.

    Well, it's not so much wasted as it is firmly in the pockets of well connected Democrats. Calling it "wasted" is actually putting a kinder face on it. I prefer stolen.

    In some cases, homelessness is a personal failing. A great deal of CA homelessness that is often covered in media are people who are either addicted to drugs or are vagrants. Those are life choices. Mental illness is not; but it is also a major part of CA’s homelessness. It doesn’t matter how much money is being spent; what matters is what is being done. That is where CA consistently fails. Providing clean drug needles, allowing loitering, and providing sheltered encampments with no regulation has never worked. The mentally ill and drug addicts need involuntary admission to treatment until they can become productive members of society; and vagrants need to be arrested. It’s that simple, but Californians (both politicians and voters) refuse to do that. This video was posted about 07Feb24 and claims the wages in CA are stagnant. Clearly this person doesn’t follow the news. At the beginning of this year, Newsom signed into law a minimum wage increase of $20/hr for fast food workers and $15/hr for everyone else; that is not stagnation. Housing is high due to CA’s insane building regulations, rent control, and the tyrannical rent moratorium (that is leading the cause in reduced affordable housing by punishing those who provided it). Historically, social safety nets make things worse, and CA already have a lot that don’t work. Social issues cannot be fixed by the government…it must be fixed by the people (hence…society fixes social problems). There is not a 100% fix for homelessness just like there is not a 100% fix for crime, but it can be mitigated; especially with family involvement and charity…not more government.
    And “latinx” is a made up word. They are Latino. Stop pushing your progressive socialist American imperialism on an entire culture.

      California is one of the most populous and wealthiest cities in the world, but it is also a city with deep-rooted problems of poverty, homelessness, and crime. These issues are interrelated and have a profound impact on the lives of many Californians.
