- A new estimate by the city of Seattle shows a drop in the number of RV encampments on city streets. Between December 2022 and the end of March, there were 129 fewer verified RV encampments in the city, according to the homeless action plan dashboard.
Amazon employees will begin working from the office at least three days a week on Monday.

RV's are not the "ugly underbelly of the homeless crisis". That title belongs to the elected officials of Seattle and Washington state.
Sorry, but yeah they are....
@@tonigallegos1325 They are somebody's home.
@@paulsawczyc5019 No its likely not owned by the person squatting in it. But people living in an RV is NOT the problem, the problem is they act like animals
Developers buying all the land and driving up rent. Banks. Look at them
@@randyrobinson3951 Its been that way for eternity, and everything always seems just a little too expensive. I laugh now at what I paid for my house but at the time I never thought I could afford it. Then I thought land was too much vut I bought it anyway, and did the same 4 more times, each time it had gone up and I thought it was too much, the moral of the story is just do it.
It is fantastic to see the good people of Seattle and Portland watching their elected officials giving them exactly what they voted for
The republicans only hide it better but that doesn’t mean the problem isn’t there and won’t implode. This is an American problem, our politicians on BOTH sides have sold this country to the highest bidders. Greed is king & money speculators who produce nothing are the rulers
This problem is everywhere in the country. I’m in FL and there’s plenty of homeless and drug addicts here. Right wing kooks thinks it’s only a blue state problem.
Right on
Won’t happen where i live! Traditional midwest values !
@@rickdee67 better pray on that💯it's spreading all over blue states👌👊
After 10 years served in the US Navy, my wife and I moved back to Seattle, this was 1967, and Seattle and Washington state was a beautiful place to live. Now it is the worst place in America to live. What a shame.
Same now's it's a strange place with strange ideas and etc. Agree
I don't the worst...
My fathered served his Country over 35 years . For nothing but dope addicts
Heartbreaking
"Now its the worst place". I'm sorry but you liberals have been warned to death and did not listen to reason. YOU did this to Seattle so please stop acting like this just happened out of nowhere.
A scourge on the state? Governor, you and the people voted for all of this and more. Good job. You people of Seattle got exactly what you wanted.👍👍
I'd like to see you guys do a story on the root causes of homelessness rather than complaining about the symptoms.
meaning the omnipresence of illegal drugs or permitting these folks to 'choose' this lifestyle, all goes back to root issue; unfettered liberalism, lose liberalism and so goes the bums who are enabled by leftists and who, by and large, will not permit meaningful policies/regs to end this newest scourge of liberalism...
Mental health issues and substance abuse. And an inability/refusal to do the things necessary to get themselves out of the hole they dug. Most of the people on the street have been kicked out of at least one program to help them. The big issue is very simple: the right to informed consent for medical treatment. If they don't consent to treatment - there's not much you can do for them.
Until the law says they can be held in a psychiatric ward or prison and forced to accept help the problem will ALWAYS EXIST......
@@crazyoilfieldmechanic3195 That law wouldn't stand. It violates the 5th Amendment. And if somebody else fan be forced to submit to involuntary medica care - so can you,
Drug addicts
That's not a tow yard, that's a garbage dump.
we are all just garbage in someone's eyes
it’s an pirate yard
It's a gold mine. The city will reimburse him about $3200 per vehicle to cover the cost of towing, storage for 21 days and disposal. There is also scrap value and if someone claims it, fees are to be paid by owner. Threre is at least a half million dollars there easy and they keep rolling in.
@@user-ub3hd4sy4e Its the only way people can feel good about themselves or keep up their views
You mean, scrap yard
This has been coming for decades. This isn't just in Seattle... it's everywhere that cost of living is high and wages are too low. This has been builting since the 1980's and will only get worse as long as housing is unaffordable and wages are stagnant. SO many people just can't afford to rent anything anymore.
Seen the cost of buying a house lately. Prices for homes are higher than the average worker can afford. What is going on?
It's cause the generation of GREED, the BOOMERS, just can't get enough and the pyramid scheme economy they created and we all still live under has created this. The bottom will fall out, very soon. You haven't seen ugly or bad yet.
Remember how great it was October, 2019 before the woke dem fjb army assaulted the entire winning country!?
No, not everywhere. You won't find any homeless CAMPS in Hong Kong where wages are low and rent is super high.
Change legislation to allow super affordable tiny apartments anyone without a bunch of government paperwork involved.
I was sitting in my kitchen in Washington DC, eating breakfast, and a homeless person walked up in the alley between my house and my neighbors pissed on my house. Other homeless people used to defecate in front of my house. It’s a lot to take.
I'll bet a few of your Amazon packages went missing too. Most of the bum camps in L.A. have either piles of Amazon boxes, or piles of stolen bicycles and parts.
Demand the government provide public bathrooms. Everyone has to pee somewhere, yet homeless people aren't allowed by businesses unless they are regular paying customers, and even then managers can forbid poor customers from using their bathrooms.
The homeless people in your area can't afford to move somewhere else... And there's no where else that's offering a hand up path to American citizens.
Don't take it anymore.
As the economy collapses, homelessness will get much, much worse.
Nah, REALLY?
This is all self induced by voting in idiots
@@joevarga5982 Yeah, REALLY! liberal lol
No, people living on the street like you were never in a home.
They're not homeless they're homefree
The governor is all talk no action unless it taking guns away
On the other hand, pro gun folks think the governor is doing a great job with gun control. So..
Wait a minute! You talking about Gavin here in CA ... aren't you?
@@josepha.r5839 insert any dem governor name
Corruption is UBIQUITOUS now! From the public educators, employees and officials, and police, prosecutors and judges, of the smallest towns, right up thru the presidency! There isnt an honest public employee or official, cop, or politician in America, OR ANY COUNTRY! This is an entirely unsustainable situation! We are living in Bizarro world now, where honesty, truth, honor and empathy, ...and dutiful civil service and representation, have been replaced by deceit, lies, greed and self serving apathy, and abuse of power and of the system, ...for personal gain and retaliation against citizens that bruise their precious, entitled egos!
The fact that the homeless has more rights than tax paying citizens is why I went to NYC. More sanity and common sense in NYC. It’s the entitlement of even the homeless that is the cause.
That many campers indicates a massive homeless crisis... I don't think scrapping their homes is the solution. Really sad to see so many people's homes/shelters in a yard waiting to be scrapped.
That’s crazy. Seattle was such a beautiful clean city in the 80s and 90s.
Try for the entire last 2 centuries ,until the liberals infected it with their shitty policies and destroyed it.
They’re bringing their special brand of chaos to a suburb near you.
O come on it's still real nice. Wa wa 😢 complain complain, run for public office make changes, form a group of citizens come up with solutions.
Thank the Liberals and foreigners.
Fucking cry about it
@@joeearley3351 ... Everything democrats do , turns to shit .
The dude is complaining like he’s just a Good Samaritan doing the city a favor but… obviously he’s signed a contract with the city for the towing gig and he’s getting paid handsomely by the city to haul them away. Whenever he can’t locate the owners, legally the state has given him ownership of those rvs so if they end up at a salvage yard, he’s pocketing that money junking them. Business is going great for him. 😂
Hes got a lucritive government connection,, hes getting fuckin rich.
Old RVs are not exactly a lucrative enterprise. You might get $200 from the scrap metal in the engine block and the frame but you spend $1000 in equipment and labor cleaning up the moldy panelling, dealing with human waste, and paying landfill fees for all the broken glass, plastic and crumbly foam.
hope he gets his teeth fixed too. Oh America!
@@bernardmauge8613 Bet you are a handsome sight to behold also!
Exactly. Its so hard for him to take peoples homes away from them and get paid hand over fist.
Not a red or a blue state problem. It's a cost of housing problem. We don't have homeless encampments in Michigan because you can still buy a reasonable home for $150,000 and rent a reasonable apartment for $1,000. Not in the safest area but you can get by. I live in a zero-crime suburb of Detroit and my entire monthly living expenses for a 2 bedroom with rent and all utilities including Internet is around $1,500. Market would be $1,800. I'm getting a good deal because my complex is 1960's era. In Austin, Boston, Salt Lake, Seattle, Portland, LA, Miami suburbs you're talking triple or quadruple amounts of money. In those areas which are run by both Democrats and Republicans you are not building enough affordable housing. I could easily buy a house in Metro Detroit at my income level and pay off the mortgage early. In an major metro in Utah or Idaho or Oregon or Washington it would eat up a huge portion of my income, and life would be a struggle without another income earner. When you price out home buyers, rents go through the roof. $1,500 is barely a dent in my income and most poor people could make do. But when rents are going into the many thousands if dollars you're squeezing out poor people. They move to homeless encampments, and the cities on the Pacific Ocean are not cold enough to kill people in winter so that's where the entire overpriced Western US goes. Michigan winters will also kill the homeless but we haven't priced out our homeless. So stop blaming the liberals or the conservatives or drugs and build more homes, dummies!
almost every place like this is democrat run..

I'm wondering why on your weather page you no longer post the weather history, especially the rainfall amounts for the previous day. This is very useful information and we miss it. Thank you
Maybe you guys ought to do something about rent being $3000.00+ a month in the area!

United States.🇺🇸 (15) “United States” means- (A) a Federal corporation; (B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States.
Ch.48 48 stat. P.L. 73-10, HJR 192 was passed, Executive Order 6102 was signed into effect by POTUS Roosevelt. This executive order required all gold and gold certificates to be surrendered to the federal government by May 1, 1933. House Joint Resolution 192 was then passed by Congress on June 5, 1933. This law was passed to do away with the gold clause in the constitution and in all public and private contracts.
1933 was also when the United States went bankrupt, which was not the first time that it went bankrupt. In fact, the United States was so far in debt that it went bankrupt two additional time previously - once in 1789 (forming the Constitution so the state’s could sign on as security for the fed’s debts), and then in 1861 (when the Southern State’s said “No More” and wanted to succeed rather than sign on to another pledging of assets to pay the federal governments debt).
Then, in 1933, and with HJR192, they took all the Gold, all the true money, all the property (and instituted eminent domain and property taxes/divided land titles), and instituted the income tax to control the labor of the people. In addition, with HJR 192 is when they instituted the Birth Certificates to control the people and have the future American people become the collateral for all the federal governments debts. Yes…that’s right - your birth certificate is the TITLE to your body and it has been pledged as an asset. The holder has the right to the taxes and fines, fees, etc that you pay to the government through judgments, court cases, payroll, income taxes, property taxes, etc.
From the very beginning, the government was indebted to European bankers as a result of the revolution. How ironic that we had to borrow money from England to pay for the war we fought against them.
So, fast forward to the early 1900’s and you’ll come across several key events that make it quite obvious there was a master plan at work to enslave the people. If you read a book named The Creature From Jeckyll Island, you’ll become intimately acquainted with the happenings in the year 1910, when 6 men, who were either elite bankers and/or politicians, met in secret in a place named Jeckyll Island. The purpose of this meeting was to formulate plans for economics reforms for the United States. This is where the banking cartel began in this country. The idea of a central bank had always been rejected, and so the men who met on Jeckyll Island, needed to come up with a way to trick the people into allowing a central bank to be instituted.
Three years later, in 1913, President Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into effect, which is the current central bank in the United States, even though it is actually not governed by any agency of the Federal Government. Eight years later, in 1921, the Maternity Act was passed which required all birth to be registered with the state. So, now all key pieces were in place for the upcoming bankruptcy default and restructure.
In 1933, when the Federal Government went bankrupt, they passed EO 6102 and HJR 192 and pledged us as collateral to back the government debt.
They made us slaves. But they couldn’t technically make us slaves, because that would be illegal. So, they had to give us a remedy. So what is the HJR 192 Remedy? It is that the government has the obligation to discharge and settle any debts we may incur in our daily lives. Yes, this includes mortgages, car loans, utilities, etc…
But wait! Wasn’t HJR 192 repealed? Technically, it was but the provisions that brought us into having no money of substance still exist and apply. In other words, we didn’t go back to using “real money” (gold/silver) again; and therefore, the maxim of “whoever brings the obligation must bring the remedy” still applies. So, the government still has the fiduciary duty to discharge and settle your debts, because we still don’t have access to money of real substance, AND because the USA is still in bankruptcy mode. So, the Secretary of the Treasury is still the “Receiver” in a Bankruptcy. Your birth certificate is still a bond and your debts are still prepaid by your future labor, property, and taxes that they are assuming the Administration of as the Office of the Executor of the ESTATE of the ALL CAPS JOHN H DOE name. They still hypothecated the Birth Certificate and made Billions of the birth (or Naturalization) of every new citizen. In fact, in every court case over $7,000, there are new bonds created and traded off your BC ESTATE.
Okay, so now that we know this information about HJR192, can we just write something like “Discharge According to HJR 192” on a bill ? it will take massive amounts of studying and a healthy dose of trial and error. We need to educate?🤖👍 i thought God Allah outlawed the use of Riba % ...?👺
Agreed! To all those trashy people making van dwellers look bad: I was homeless - my sh*t was tight!!! IF THESE PEOPLE WOULD TAKE RESPONSIBLITY FOR THEIR OWN SH*T INSTEAD OF EXPECTING "SOMEBODY, DO SOMETHING FOR ME", WAAAAH! NOBODY WANTS YOUR TRASHY SH*T IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD!!! To all you bleeding heart liberals: I WAS HOMELESS - bullsh*t on their issues, their "addiction is a disease", blah, blah, blah.... I was addicted: I didn't have my sh*t strung out all over the place (and I wouldn't want your trashy a$$ near me because you illicit unwanted attention). I didn't hoard garbage or do crack, and set fire to sh*t... Now that I am housed (yes, there ARE resources ESPECIALLY for Veterans because I was one and I am one the HUD/VAsh program - never have to be homeless again AS LONG AS I ABIDE BY THE RULES OF MY LEASE AND DON'T DRAG TRASH UP INTO THE APARTMENT COMPLEX). We have ONE white tr@shy junk collector in our VERY nice apartment complex: I keep throwing her trash away. She wrecked 3 cars in two weeks, had to call the EMS to come scrape her skanky a$$ up out of our parking lot. She would go to the methadone clinic then to her dealer's and overdose on the combination. She now drives an uninsured car, which she has already crashed 4 times (irresponsible driving without insurance - YOU make MY rates go up!!!) NOBODY (except maybe trashy people) wasnt to live around YOUR CRAP!!! Tighten your sh*t up, be an asset to the community, PICK UP YOUR TRASH AND THE TRASH OF OTHER IRRESPONSIBLE PEOPLE because youre making yourself and other homeless look bad. Did I say that I was homeless once? No excuses...
This will never end until people start being responsible and addiction ends and inflation ends its a tough situation all of the US its super sad
Hey seattle, You guys started this shit and now its in every city!
How dare Inslee say it's "inexcusable". Like he isn't culpable in the least.
There is an excuse but if they talk about it the problem leads back to ALL of our politicians.
I am a huge fan of RV living, and I am entirely sympathetic to the homeless.
But if you are literally parking your RV in an encampment, then you are doing it wrong.
If I was homeless and living in an RV, I would be as far away from other people as possible.
If you are going to live this life, live in the countryside not a drug slum
That's the problem they're druggies and need the city money to continue their drug problem. Countryside doesn't provide them with that.
Probably a lot of these RVs couldn’t drive anymore, but they still were a roof over someone’s head, even if it was dirty it was better than being outside.
Read your comment. The reason they're in there is because it is an open air drug market. Probably has prostitution too.
No drugs or welfare in the countryside.
Parasites must live off the host victim, so they can't live in the countryside. Democrats are farming them like animals.
Just a thought: Perhaps government authorities should consider building a structure within/beside the encampments with bathroom facilities and a kitchen/dining area to feed the homeless -- buildings designed so they could be used as the "office" of a public park when the homeless no longer need the space, hopefully because the homeless been helped to move on. That way, the RVs could be just a bedroom -- literally a place only to sleep -- as residents are educated and helped in the office from daylight to dark. Alternately, build a large hotel with modest sized rooms and basic bath with the kitchen/dining area to feed the otherwise homeless on the ground floor.
Great idea, can we use YOUR money to pay for this. You idiots with your stupid idea's always using someone else money is the result of what your watching and now you want to implement another stupid idea.
Noooooo
STOP DOING DRUGS AND GET A GD JOB!!
Kudos to the people out there cleaning it up
Out of sight, out of mind , does not fix or solve the homeless situation
Their not homeless their addicts mostly and out of site out of mind works for criminals with prisons, these people need rehab, forced rehab if need be. Letting them die on the street from drug use is a worse crime.
@@billveek9518 Yes... sympathy and a fuck ton of social workers... that will fix things quick-fast... and maybe some more free needles too... couldn't hurt right... or is that a part of the whole... "let them die in the streets from drug use" thing that you think is a crime... I get confused.

Depression, for one, can affect decision making and planning skills.

In my area I volunteer with a housing collation that works on legislation, fight evictions, and connections communities with resources. Seniors are the fastest growing homeless population nationwide and these are people that have worked all their lives. Seniors may be able to connect with room rental services that help them stay in their homes or find a new space if they need one. People have to work together to find options.
They are so eager to "get the garbage out of the neighborhood" that they forget where it came from in the first place. All they are doing is forcing this people to move somewhere else and it's just going to happen all over again.
Most of them moved here from somewhere else, and I don't mean OR, WA, or CA. People come here from all over the U.S.
What now?
Or they could get jobs, you know. Maybe making it harder to choose the homeless lifestyle will give these people the swift kick they apparently need.
This is what happens when you become a "drug friendly" state, a "sanctuary state" and you begin to kneecap the tenets of capitalism. You don't prepare the young folk for life, they grow up partying and not saving or investing money, many come from broken homes. They turn to their shitty friends and drugs. State says, hey, you can smoke all the weed you want, here, have some clean hypodermic needles too. Just stay at home and apply for government benefits, you don't have to do a thing, we'll take care of you. And then they're 40 years old and can't afford the ridiculous rent prices and they're stuck.
where I live there are plenty of people living in campers. the difference is they are not for the most part druggies or criminals, they are people who cannot afford the rent. there are 34 of them within a couple blocks of my work parked on the street. no garbage, and they all look to be in good shape. there is a RV/tent encampment in a small park in town as well, again no garbage, no piles of stolen bikes. it is all about how city government handles these issues.

They are stolen from the legitimate owners and traded around . Often immune to vehicle registration laws because they are often treated as a domicile.

Most of the RV people are working class priced out of a roof over their head, it's very expensive to live in Seattle and even if you make enough you still may not qualify on paper, so this is the next best thing they got unfortunately.
So Seattle's solution is have a private business store them on their property.
Im sure he gets paid plenty for them. It aint like it's mandatory... the dude volunteered for this.
Seattle is a failure just like the other Democrat run city govs. Conservatives know how to manage, you don't see this in GOP run cities. Better management, better policies, lower cost.
Rather than have them destroyed, recycled, in a land fill...instead keep them where they are still used, broken into, paying rent on the land they sit...rather than take action just get them out of sight.
Leftist Logic
Your tax dollars at work!
Living in an old camper is better then living in a tent.
Good work!! 🎉
We must address drug addiction, mental health, and housing prices!

Mental health lol😂
Jesus is the only answer out of this sinking ship. Its too late.
Lol I can tell you’re not the sharpest tool in the shed by that comment. You probably voted for this too
The comments are amazing. Reading them, I can clearly see why this problem wont go away.
Even as they burn in the flames, they deny the fire.
@H People give a huge shit about the homeless...it's the effin DRUG ADDICTS that want to live this way is who we don't care about... don't get it twisted.
@H That's correct. Nobody cares about them because most put themselves in that place and they DONT WANT HELP !!!!
They want handouts. Why should anyone help anyone who WONT help them selves. Those campers did not come from employed people who cant afford housing, they came from bums and addicts. They come from people who wont clean up after themselves. They come from people who have no self respect or dignity. People who wont take a job under any pay rate. Have you seen the trash that is piled up in these camps? The crime? The drugs?
That's not a decent group of folks struggling in a bad economy, that's human garbage. Supporting drug addicts and bums is hurting them, not helping.
@H Nobody cares until its happening to them. This country has been built on selfishness for far to long.

@@PrudentStudent666yes, leaving.
What does returning people to office buildings have to do with the homeless?... Other than putting workers at risk? (speaking, sadly, from experience). That had nothing to do with the segment. There are food trucks and sandwich joints in residential areas. The business workers brings didn't disappear, it just moved somewhere else.
I love how the governor says that he is against homeless camp's. It his policies that allow them to exist.
Going to exist if the governor does anything about the problem Andy bale's said it's a sin to leave people out there ridding RVs not for big business sakes
And caused them.
Inslee and the minions are responsible for allowing this crap.
I was stationed at Whidbey Island in the mid/late 80's. We'd go down to Seattle. It really was the emerald city. I used to tell everyone that I'd traveled a good portion of the country (missing 5 states from being in them all) and quite a few countries, and that Seattle was the cleanest, most aesthetically appealing city I'd ever seen. I'm sure there were rough areas but we never found an area we didn't feel safe and comfortable in. It's tragic what has happened. I don't know what the solution is to this problem but what they're doing clearly isn't it.
We have homeless people because business sent all the good paying jobs overseas so that a few people could make billions.
NAFTA... you remember that?
We didnt' have a homeless problem until NAFTA.
The solution to the problem is tax billionaires and corporations instead of subsidizing them.
@@blogintonblakley2708 That is one of the main reasons. I've been in small towns where everyone worked in one factory, and when that factory closed, the town went under.
@@johnnymcblaze Yup, happened all across the USA. And now twenty years later the next generation and those who can't find jobs are completely screwed.
All so Buffet, Bezos, and their ilk can play space games.
@@blogintonblakley2708 That sounds like something learned in university. But it fails on a couple of fronts. First, if it were true, what you are saying is that a significant demographic of Americans can no longer care for themselves. They lack the ability to thrive, or even survive on a basic level, without someone else ensuring they have the means to meet their basic needs and, without these benefactors, they fall into this sort of life. That they lack agency. That doesn't fit with the history of mankind or, especially, American history.
Two, if this were true, given the plethora of help wanted signs across the country we should be seeing homelessness on a steep decline. This isn't the case.
I don't disagree that everyone should be paying their fair share of taxes but history has also shown that taxation, or more accurately the government, is never the solution. I would argue that government is exactly why this problem exists.
No one knows a solution. I say try try and try again. Change…if it doesn’t work try again…just DO SOMETHING!
The thing is these are people's homes which in other places they are allowed to live in. There are so many people living in tents and yet not many people dealing with injustice there to do with the high cost of housing and the lack of support for a drug recovery although there is some really promising hope there but it's not filtering through.
The lawlessness that goes on and the lack of connection and community and looking out for people these are the problems.
More spiritual health is needed as well! 😢
Good to hear crime is down though as I have been really praying for this area ❤
So beautiful, so smart, and so right.

Oh good, move to someone else's neighborhood and vote for the same crap policies instead of doing something to clean up your own neighborhood. You're part of the problem.

Exactly. When Jay Inslee got up on his soap box I thought "how long have you already been governor?"
Inslee can't single handedly solve the crisis, of course, but you'd think Washingtonians would get a clue and try different representatives in government. If new representatives still aren't doing what needs to be done and fixing the issue, then it might be time to consider the problem lies with the people filling ballots.
Yeah he's playing that up. He said he knew what he was getting getting into and he is going to make absolute bank on towing, storage and salvage. Some people see this man and don't realize he is a millionaire.
@@shamanschlong As well he should! He's WORKING for a living!
They simply let the problem go FAR TOO LONG! And like every other problem, be it a decayed tooth or a leaking roof, it just gets harder and harder to fix the problem when you don't address it in a timely fashion. More damage is done, and the road to recovery just gets longer and a lot more expensive.
Exactly!
The democrats in power encouraged this and blocked anyone that wanted to solve the problem.
so what's your suggestion to fix the drug, mental illness and homeless problem in America Don?, you probably just making ignorant noise and blowing smoke up peoples butt from up on your high horse, I bet you a six pack that you have no idea WTF to do
I like Barney Fife's policy,
"Nip it in the bud!" 🥀
Hearing Gov Inslee say its in-excusable for this homeless problem makes my blood boil, He has been the Governor since 2013. Using taxpayers money to fix this problem that has gotten worse each year. Drugs and Criminals must load his pockets, while hurting the whole state of Washington. Maybe Gov Inslee should be investigated?
I spent my final year in the Navy back in 1988 in Bremerton WA where my old ship was getting overhauled and I remember that Seattle was much better then when I visited the city via the ferry. From reading the news and watching videos about it these days, it looks like a heII hole.

Where are all the rich people in Seattle opening their hearts and homes to the homeless? On second thought having a heart these days could get you killed. How do we know which homeless people are worth helping and which are beyond helping?

And I lived through the 1980s when Reagan was stripping every right and power out of the hands of the people and handing them over to corporations.
The purchasing power of minimum wage peaked in 1969 and it's pathetic now: Most of these folks can never afford to break out of poverty. The only possible solution at this point is a serious revamping of our entire society. We need universal basic living standards for everyone, and we need global redistribution of wealth, assuming we're going to pretend capitalism can continue.

Guaranteed a lot of those influx of homeless came from red states. They didn't get created by blue policies.
They impound the abandoned ones. Mostly that means giving notice, waiting for the owner to return and remove it, and if they don't it gets towed.
The tow company secretly loves the garbage rv piling up. He is probably billing the city a ton of $$$ of tax payer money for storage fees while each rv slowly goes through redtape
for some reason he's not found enough money to get new teeth
even IF he was doing that who gives af how else are they going to get that trash off the streets and its true they have to try and find the owners under the law
@@gregh7457 Rude, mean comment..
The real fun starts when he has to dispose of them. The reason those RVs were donated to charity (and then re-donated to homeless people) is because older RVs are nearly impossible to dispose of.
Homeless doesn't mean you should live like an animal. I've seen many homeless keep their "home" and the area around it clean. We need to stop coddling the derelicts and criminals among them.

@@integr8er66 I agree on both sides. But in reality the majority of homeless are mentally ill & or drug addicts. All of which need addressed by our politicians. Right now they are pouring billions into taking care of all the illegals instead of our own first.

This happens when housing is unaffordable. If a tiny apartment is $2500 per month, most landlords require incomes of 3 times rent or $90000.
Anyone who's ever bought a half decent used rv knows how bad things can be when somebody just neglects their old one and it sits for 5 yrs, leaking, rotten frames and moldy messes, never mind some homeless person shitting and pissing in the toilet without ever cleaning it out or not keeping it clean after each use for the weekend or week.

United States.🇺🇸 (15) “United States” means- (A) a Federal corporation; (B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States.
Ch.48 48 stat. P.L. 73-10, HJR 192 was passed, Executive Order 6102 was signed into effect by POTUS Roosevelt. This executive order required all gold and gold certificates to be surrendered to the federal government by May 1, 1933. House Joint Resolution 192 was then passed by Congress on June 5, 1933. This law was passed to do away with the gold clause in the constitution and in all public and private contracts.
1933 was also when the United States went bankrupt, which was not the first time that it went bankrupt. In fact, the United States was so far in debt that it went bankrupt two additional time previously - once in 1789 (forming the Constitution so the state’s could sign on as security for the fed’s debts), and then in 1861 (when the Southern State’s said “No More” and wanted to succeed rather than sign on to another pledging of assets to pay the federal governments debt).
Then, in 1933, and with HJR192, they took all the Gold, all the true money, all the property (and instituted eminent domain and property taxes/divided land titles), and instituted the income tax to control the labor of the people. In addition, with HJR 192 is when they instituted the Birth Certificates to control the people and have the future American people become the collateral for all the federal governments debts. Yes…that’s right - your birth certificate is the TITLE to your body and it has been pledged as an asset. The holder has the right to the taxes and fines, fees, etc that you pay to the government through judgments, court cases, payroll, income taxes, property taxes, etc.
From the very beginning, the government was indebted to European bankers as a result of the revolution. How ironic that we had to borrow money from England to pay for the war we fought against them.
So, fast forward to the early 1900’s and you’ll come across several key events that make it quite obvious there was a master plan at work to enslave the people. If you read a book named The Creature From Jeckyll Island, you’ll become intimately acquainted with the happenings in the year 1910, when 6 men, who were either elite bankers and/or politicians, met in secret in a place named Jeckyll Island. The purpose of this meeting was to formulate plans for economics reforms for the United States. This is where the banking cartel began in this country. The idea of a central bank had always been rejected, and so the men who met on Jeckyll Island, needed to come up with a way to trick the people into allowing a central bank to be instituted.
Three years later, in 1913, President Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into effect, which is the current central bank in the United States, even though it is actually not governed by any agency of the Federal Government. Eight years later, in 1921, the Maternity Act was passed which required all birth to be registered with the state. So, now all key pieces were in place for the upcoming bankruptcy default and restructure.
In 1933, when the Federal Government went bankrupt, they passed EO 6102 and HJR 192 and pledged us as collateral to back the government debt.
They made us slaves. But they couldn’t technically make us slaves, because that would be illegal. So, they had to give us a remedy. So what is the HJR 192 Remedy? It is that the government has the obligation to discharge and settle any debts we may incur in our daily lives. Yes, this includes mortgages, car loans, utilities, etc…
But wait! Wasn’t HJR 192 repealed? Technically, it was but the provisions that brought us into having no money of substance still exist and apply. In other words, we didn’t go back to using “real money” (gold/silver) again; and therefore, the maxim of “whoever brings the obligation must bring the remedy” still applies. So, the government still has the fiduciary duty to discharge and settle your debts, because we still don’t have access to money of real substance, AND because the USA is still in bankruptcy mode. So, the Secretary of the Treasury is still the “Receiver” in a Bankruptcy. Your birth certificate is still a bond and your debts are still prepaid by your future labor, property, and taxes that they are assuming the Administration of as the Office of the Executor of the ESTATE of the ALL CAPS JOHN H DOE name. They still hypothecated the Birth Certificate and made Billions of the birth (or Naturalization) of every new citizen. In fact, in every court case over $7,000, there are new bonds created and traded off your BC ESTATE.
Okay, so now that we know this information about HJR192, can we just write something like “Discharge According to HJR 192” on a bill ? it will take massive amounts of studying and a healthy dose of trial and error. We need to educate?🤖👍 i thought God Allah outlawed the use of Riba % ...?👺
Agreed! To all those trashy people making van dwellers look bad: I was homeless - my sh*t was tight!!! IF THESE PEOPLE WOULD TAKE RESPONSIBLITY FOR THEIR OWN SH*T INSTEAD OF EXPECTING "SOMEBODY, DO SOMETHING FOR ME", WAAAAH! NOBODY WANTS YOUR TRASHY SH*T IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD!!!

Did anyone noticed 0:30 Gas Tank Door Cover opens by itself?
Was sin casa in Seattle a decade ago. Moved on. The problem is the homeless industrial complex. I needed up to 5-6 case managers a week for basic needs. Anyone of them could have snapped their fingers to get me into treatment and housing but they didn't because they would lose a customer and their income. Took me months to get a spot in treatment through DSHS. After that I went through FareStart, got a job at Whole Foods and I was still homeless for a few months. Wasn't fun sleeping in doorways, getting blackout drunk so I don't remember how terrible the night was before. Anyone sleeping in a tent or under a bridge has severely been broken and shattered emotionally in a lot of ways. There's plenty of food. If you're starving and homeless in Seattle you're an idiot. When I give back to the community I've passed through I only give clean socks and underwear. I do have to say H.I.P., homeless intervention project, was possibly the best program I came across.
This is the kind of thing people need to read and see, a real account of what someone had to go through. You shouldn't have had to sleep in doorways, you should have had churches or foodbanks or anything than just a doorway.
Those managing it all, do not make money off of all of that so they see no need to speed up the process, that and its easier to ignore and let or wait for them to die I guess.
Sad because the money and skilk sets that could be saved out if that, would help fixing the issue.
Like the amount of those owning the r.v. , how many know what they need to do for upkeep, the work needed to keep it weather sealed and the waste actually manageable and knowing where to dump it properly as well as the fuel costs to run and electricity for cooking.
Wonder what it would take for someone to design better, longer lasting and easier to manage r.v.s they could make an industry out of it.
They should I've done a story on you! What's sad is that the paid ambulance chasers probably never will.
I’m so glad you were able to escape that situation and finally got the help you needed to do so. I can only only imagine how scary and difficult it is to be homeless and my heart goes out to all the homeless individuals everywhere.✨💖✨
@@slimdifference08 I'm only one chapter in a 25,000 chaptered book. Access to treatment, encouraging a reconnection with family and a daily purpose with work was key. Access to treatment is cheaper and more fulfilling than repeated ambulance rides and time spent in jail.
The homeless industrial complex employs breaureacrats and builds complex systems and meetings. These people are paid and never solve anything. None are subject to questions or audit. Your tax money down a hole.
Yes. Out of the RV and on to the street.
It’s a drug crisis not a homeless crisis, let’s call it what it is…
Their policies created this crisis. I refuse to spend any more time in seattle unless absolutely required. I've spent maybe 8 hours there since 2020, 4 hours of that in a car driving thru.
Think about how each of those represents a life that was once profitable...now the same people who could afford an R.V. at one point are homeless...system has failed.
Very good point
Seattle was once a beautiful city. Yes, there were homeless people through the years, but they were never a real problem and they never trashed everywhere they went. Today, it is an insane nightmare. Also, crime and lawlessness are out of control. After my last visit, I don't think I will go to Seattle again.
If that is your biggest fear than either You are doing good, or you need to re-evaluate, and re-prioritize your fears. The chances of catching anything from discarded syringes if accidentally prick or stabbed is very low. So just be careful, and if this is a scrap yard than no need to even go in the vehicles.
I used to live in Seattle, and I moved to the other side of the state.
The reason being, the blatant issues the cities are having. homelessness, drugs, crime, the ridiculously climbing living expenses, ect...
Its not worth it, its not safe. Seattle is a lost cause under current leadership. Nearby cities like Tacoma and Olympia are not any better.
Most of the coast side of Washington is just awful, we need stronger/better leadership to handle all the issues we're having, If you go to the other side of the mountains
(With the exception of maybe Spokane) Practically every city is cleaner, although there are some homeless there it isn't anywhere near as close to Seattle , and there is very little crime in most of the cities and towns.
Central and Eastern Washington can keep there cities clean and safe, so why cant the largest section of major cities with arguably the most funding and resources in the state figure out how clean up their act? I understand that inflation and the economy is a major issue and a major factor for some of the homeless, however that doesn't explain why cleaning up the cities, the drug issues and reducing the crime rate hasn't been seriously tackled yet.
Deomocrats .. You don't see this in conservative run City Govs.
It's 100% politics, it's not as beneficial to social engineer the rural areas as it is the more populated cities. the social engineering then bleeds to the more rural areas... This is planned & executed, don't kid yourself.
Seattle may be the epicenter due to their own policies but it will spread.
You are a right winger. The policies you've supported your entire life have created the problems in our cities.
Please stop being so cruel and judgemental... maybe you could find some way to help instead of running away with your nose in the air?
Sorry but it’s a drug crisis , not a homeless crisis .
Mental health. Housing issues don't help.
lil bit of column a and column b
How long are we going to pretend this isn't the result of the current industrial revolution?
Does it make you feel better to pretend it's about drugs?
It's all been allowed by the demorats.
@@springerworks002 "current industrial revolution" wtf are you even on about
Politicians and people of Seattle, Portland and SF still don’t think they’re the problem.
Wow, that is awesome!!! I hope Los Angeles is paying attention ...
This city has been ruined with letting all this happen over time ... DAM SHAME
I love seeing people get what they voted for
The politicians keep getting their annual bonuses/pay raises...and that matters more.
EVERY city! and It is all by design!
I was homeless - my sh*t was tight!!! IF THESE PEOPLE WOULD TAKE RESPONSIBLITY FOR THEIR OWN SH*T INSTEAD OF EXPECTING "SOMEBODY, DO SOMETHING FOR ME", WAAAAH! NOBODY WANTS YOUR TRASHY SH*T IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD!!! To all you bleeding heart liberals: I WAS HOMELESS - bullsh*t on their issues, their "addiction is a disease", blah, blah, blah.... I was addicted: I didn't have my sh*t strung out all over the place (and I wouldn't want your trashy a$$ near me because you illicit unwanted attention). I didn't hoard garbage or do crack, and set fire to sh*t... Now that I am housed (yes, there ARE resources ESPECIALLY for Veterans because I was one and I am one the HUD/VAsh program - never have to be homeless again AS LONG AS I ABIDE BY THE RULES OF MY LEASE AND DON'T DRAG TRASH UP INTO THE APARTMENT COMPLEX). We have ONE white tr@shy junk collector in our VERY nice apartment complex: I keep throwing her trash away. She wrecked 3 cars in two weeks, had to call the EMS to come scrape her skanky a$$ up out of our parking lot. She would go to the methadone clinic then to her dealer's and overdose on the combination. She now drives an uninsured car, which she has already crashed 4 times (irresponsible driving without insurance - YOU make MY rates go up!!!) NOBODY (except maybe trashy people) wasnt to live around YOUR CRAP!!! Tighten your sh*t up, be an asset to the community, PICK UP YOUR TRASH AND THE TRASH OF OTHER IRRESPONSIBLE PEOPLE because youre making yourself and other homeless look bad. Did I say that I was homeless once? No excuses...
The problem is that homeless people are mentally ill or drug addicts or both. They need those issues addressed first
So you saying that people who lose their jobs and or get kicked out of their homes are mentally ill?? People who fall on hard times they're mentally ill?? Seems like you're the one that's mentally ill if you think just because someone's homeless there's something mentally wrong with them, about to have a whole lot more homeless people, who are now getting kicked out because of not paying rent during the shutdown, they are not mentally ill they just made the terrible mistake or decision of not paying. Also now you have money hungry landlords, they are now charging whatever they want for rent, and can now kick people out, even the ones who been paying on time, you may be homeless in the future soon, America is done for, the economy is about to tank!
Las Vegas, NV has an excellent program addressing this issues.
@@anaechevarria6653 I live Vegas and I'm curious, what program?
NO, its a mass gathering of lazy drug using SOB's, with a few mentally ill people for them to exploit.
I have to say. Not everyone that’s homeless is on drugs and mental illness. Just not true.
It's tough when Seattle is the fastest growing City in the US (again). Seattle Times reported that during 2022, no other large City grew faster than Seattle - "Data released Thursday (May 18, 2023) by the U.S. Census Bureau shows the boom times aren’t over just yet: Seattle just reclaimed its title as the fastest-growing big city in the U.S." With all these people moving here, we need more affordable housing!
What a nightmare!
This isn't a homeless problem. This is a government officials problem.
United States.🇺🇸 (15) “United States” means- (A) a Federal corporation; (B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States.
Ch.48 48 stat. P.L. 73-10, HJR 192 was passed, Executive Order 6102 was signed into effect by POTUS Roosevelt. This executive order required all gold and gold certificates to be surrendered to the federal government by May 1, 1933. House Joint Resolution 192 was then passed by Congress on June 5, 1933. This law was passed to do away with the gold clause in the constitution and in all public and private contracts.
1933 was also when the United States went bankrupt, which was not the first time that it went bankrupt. In fact, the United States was so far in debt that it went bankrupt two additional time previously - once in 1789 (forming the Constitution so the state’s could sign on as security for the fed’s debts), and then in 1861 (when the Southern State’s said “No More” and wanted to succeed rather than sign on to another pledging of assets to pay the federal governments debt).
Then, in 1933, and with HJR192, they took all the Gold, all the true money, all the property (and instituted eminent domain and property taxes/divided land titles), and instituted the income tax to control the labor of the people. In addition, with HJR 192 is when they instituted the Birth Certificates to control the people and have the future American people become the collateral for all the federal governments debts. Yes…that’s right - your birth certificate is the TITLE to your body and it has been pledged as an asset. The holder has the right to the taxes and fines, fees, etc that you pay to the government through judgments, court cases, payroll, income taxes, property taxes, etc.
From the very beginning, the government was indebted to European bankers as a result of the revolution. How ironic that we had to borrow money from England to pay for the war we fought against them.
So, fast forward to the early 1900’s and you’ll come across several key events that make it quite obvious there was a master plan at work to enslave the people. If you read a book named The Creature From Jeckyll Island, you’ll become intimately acquainted with the happenings in the year 1910, when 6 men, who were either elite bankers and/or politicians, met in secret in a place named Jeckyll Island. The purpose of this meeting was to formulate plans for economics reforms for the United States. This is where the banking cartel began in this country. The idea of a central bank had always been rejected, and so the men who met on Jeckyll Island, needed to come up with a way to trick the people into allowing a central bank to be instituted.
Three years later, in 1913, President Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into effect, which is the current central bank in the United States, even though it is actually not governed by any agency of the Federal Government. Eight years later, in 1921, the Maternity Act was passed which required all birth to be registered with the state. So, now all key pieces were in place for the upcoming bankruptcy default and restructure.
In 1933, when the Federal Government went bankrupt, they passed EO 6102 and HJR 192 and pledged us as collateral to back the government debt.
They made us slaves. But they couldn’t technically make us slaves, because that would be illegal. So, they had to give us a remedy. So what is the HJR 192 Remedy? It is that the government has the obligation to discharge and settle any debts we may incur in our daily lives. Yes, this includes mortgages, car loans, utilities, etc…
But wait! Wasn’t HJR 192 repealed? Technically, it was but the provisions that brought us into having no money of substance still exist and apply. In other words, we didn’t go back to using “real money” (gold/silver) again; and therefore, the maxim of “whoever brings the obligation must bring the remedy” still applies. So, the government still has the fiduciary duty to discharge and settle your debts, because we still don’t have access to money of real substance, AND because the USA is still in bankruptcy mode. So, the Secretary of the Treasury is still the “Receiver” in a Bankruptcy. Your birth certificate is still a bond and your debts are still prepaid by your future labor, property, and taxes that they are assuming the Administration of as the Office of the Executor of the ESTATE of the ALL CAPS JOHN H DOE name. They still hypothecated the Birth Certificate and made Billions of the birth (or Naturalization) of every new citizen. In fact, in every court case over $7,000, there are new bonds created and traded off your BC ESTATE.
Okay, so now that we know this information about HJR192, can we just write something like “Discharge According to HJR 192” on a bill ? it will take massive amounts of studying and a healthy dose of trial and error. We need to educate?🤖👍 i thought God Allah outlawed the use of Riba % ...?👺
🍻👍 bloated bureaucracy...
No, it’s a voter problem. Unless they vote different and hold officials accountable it will worsen.
California will be the new 3rd world
Some people wants to live that way, I've lived in vans and truck campers and saved 50% of my income.
Praying for them, sad to see so many people giving up
Praying for drug addicts who have chosen to throw their lives away? Nope, not me. I don't care about any of them.
@@kinjunranger140 Your awesome! Got it all figured out.... We're all totally different, all went/going through different things. I don't wanna see anyone in pain, struggling,drugs. Wish everyone was happy and living the perfect life but Satan ain't having that. Seems like he's got you consumed. Praying for you as well. It's a short life/test
Praying for who? The bums low life scum. Bull. Open your house up and bring in these strays. Pray 😂😂😂

@@kinjunranger140 "According to SAMHSA, 38% of homeless people abused alcohol while 26% abused other drugs."
Way to bag on poor people.
I had a car in my driveway that was a few days over the limit to get registered. Guess how that went for me?
Wow. That man is a hero
