Let’s be honest, this has nothing to do with homelessness, and everything to do with financially illiterate people thinking this is going to somehow give power back to “da p3OpLe” by sticking it to corporations.
@@brianetchison465 some trashed the hotel rooms, transacted and/or consumed drugs in the streets nearby, engaged in lewd behavior, pooped in front of Al fresco diners across from their hotel, etc. You clearly weren’t subjected to the experience here on the west side of Manhattan and in Elmhurst.
It didn’t work in Tacoma. It closed down 2 hotels due to damages, bed bugs, and health code issues. Seems like normal customers didn’t want to sleep on beds covered in dirty needles and the general filth.
I’ve always ask myself….. “What have people fighting homelessness specifically done that has improved the situation?” Cause it hasn’t gotten better for decades.
It’s almost as if letting boomers own six cheap houses each and renting them out at exorbitant prices to young people wasn’t the best long term economic plan.
What I don't get is none of their ideas work but people keep voting to keep them in office. If the voter hired a plumber to fix a sink and he flooded a house would they keep calling him back? Stupid people.
The way the city of San Jose deals with "the homeless problem" is to throw money at several supposed nonprofit organizations that are experts in addressing homelessness.The funny thing is that a quick look at the executive salaries of these nonprofits reveals that these people are making upward of $400,000 per year to essentially keep the homeless problem from being solved.
There was a group on Facebook that got together to pay for a hotel for a local homeless man. Not sure why they decided on him as the lucky recipient but it’s probably because he had a dog and it was winter. Anyway, he tore up the hotel room. The man, not the dog.
I'm all for it! Next we'll force home owners to report how many spare rooms are available. Only 2 people in a 3 bedroom home? You're going to be compassionate whether you like it or not.
Adam you are so damn right on and please please start a movement instead of moving away from CA like you are planning. You have so much influence and you are fearless. Just help save CA from the dictators!!!
The drug companies that started this heroin epidemic should have gotten way harsher penalties. Did you know only 2 countries in the world allow Rx drug commercials? The U.S. and oddly, New Zealand.
The corporations will shutter the hotels...and cut their losses. It'll be cheaper than the insurance, potential lawsuits,, and the loss of business anyway..and California will lose vacation revenue as well
@@Webmaster4531 The government can't just expropriate the property. They will have to pay for the property, which the hotels will be happy to take so they can move on and let the government run the property.
Are they going to force restaurants to feed them? Are they going to force stores to cloth them? How about a car? Going to force used car dealers to give them cars? This is just more California insanity. Like the idea of making residents who move to another state pay taxes for ten years. Absolute insanity. No way in hell would I comply. Do like Abbott...direct them to the mayors house. Bet they got a few rooms with no one sleeping in them tonight.
I'm my country they moved the homeless into hotels. Now you can't go on holiday anywhere unless you're happy with your room being ransacked by the junkies next-door.
How? Wouldn't more jobs be available in those fields? The city got funded 160 million to help homelessness. I do however think it's more about addiction rather than being homeless.
@@HoldMeBack If the city will pay for the homeless to fill the vacancies, perhaps, and maybe that's will be built into the plan. Most homeless people choose to live on the streets, it's not just addiction, it's also mental illness. Then once the vacancies are filled by the homeless, the occupancy of the hotels will drop to the point where there will just be homeless occupying the hotels and then they will all go bankrupt because there will be no one but the homeless in all the area hotels. There is a reason why homeless are kept in shelters. Come to think of it, let's compel everyone in Los Angeles to take the homeless into their homes, especially the gated communities.
Will these new "guests" be entitled to the same services as regular patrons? Is someone going to pay the hotels for this? Will there be a limit to how long they can stay?
I want to come to the US for an extended holiday next year, and if this goes through, I'll change my arrival from LAX to somewhere else and miss the city altogether.
I get to weigh in on two: homeless AND Ferrari. 1. After 30+ years supporting homeless projects in DTLA’s Skid Row, I can assure you putting people in hotels is merely warehousing humans. Once on the the street for a short time, folks must learn to be “re-civilized” and many are unable to do this, regardless of reasons. Only a few are capable of receiving help. I have witness a number of the success stories at The Midnight Mission. Yet, most will not survive. Question: what do you do with 100,000+ people who cannot or will not take care of themselves? 2. Ferrari (seems like an odd mix, no?): my current one is ready for servicing anyway so I’ll add that to checklist.
I’ve been saying that for years now!! The problem isn’t lack of a home, they are junkies. These people need help. Giving them a place won’t help. They’ll still be crack heads! You tell em man!! There’s millions of people that rent apartments they are homeless and here in LA they’ll always be homeless cause a 1500 sq ft home is 1 million!
A meaningful program also provides recovery oriented case management and col subsidy and includes exceptional costs for landlords that work with the program. The real issue is meth, lack of treatment for meth, and lack of affordable housing stock. Without addressing those root causes no amount of case management will matter.
As a nonCA resident, I like to see these policies go into action to prove to the world how bad they are at leadership. Please, pass the ordinance and reap.the consequences
If these people on this committee or panel or whatever are so concerned about homeless people, why don’t they invite them into their own homes? Because it would be an inconvenience to them….
I agree with Adam however at the same time we need to build mental Health facilities specifically for the homeless. We need a real rehabilitation and work program that is going to get these people to be meaningful members of society again. We also have to also except that a sizable percentage of these people are too far gone and need to be housed and provided mental care for the rest of their life.
But they voted these politicians in. Why are they mad? I don't understand California. Just went to a funeral in CA, landed in late at night and took off following the funeral the next day. No desire to stay there. California is mess.
I agree there are much more other issues that need to be addressed for the mass homelessness that's happening in California. But I will say that I've been homeless too even when I worked at three different restaurants here in the Bay area I couldn't find a place for a year so I would sleep at work or nearby work. Minimum wage is not a livable wage by any means especially if you have kids. So these vouchers could help a small percentage of the homelessness but only a small percentage that actually strive to better themselves. But like I said that is a small percentage and I was a part of that percentage at one point in my life
Homelessness is in every major city and more. I'm in New England, been to several cities this summer. Just recently was in Burlington VT and even there in Bernie country. BLM and rainbow flags all over but yet they had homeless on the benches with their camping gear. I even saw a homeless pregnant woman with a sign for money. Never have I seen this in this city before.
But its mostly here in LA and San Fran. The numbers are staggering. The politicians make their behavior tolerated, and it just exacerbates the problem.
How is an empty warehouse with cots, bathrooms, and a security guard not a better or cheaper solution than tax money going towards a single room for a single person at $100 a person a night.
Anyone that signed that petition should be forced to report any open bedrooms or couches Another idea is those hotels could set their rates to $2k a night and book 100 homeless to force their bankrupt govt to pay for it. Or... hotels can just deny them if they don't bring a working credit card to cover the deposit
People behave in the manner in which their environment allows or motivates. At some point personal accountability will have to re-enter the picture; the longer that's put off the more exponential the pain will be in the future. There are people around today who, a hundred years ago, wouldn't have made it through adolescence. There's no getting out of paying the Darwin tax.
several months ago there was a news report where several homeless women were interviewed. all of them had been on the streets for more than 10 years. 10! in 10 years they never got the services literally given to them for free to get off the streets? never saved enough panhandle $ to rent even a tiny dump of a place?
Nevada is wide open government owned desert and sand. Manzinar and other camps are ready to be cleaned for occupancy. Hey, how about refurbishing all those empty government buildings. A couple of rezoning ordinances and building code updates and you’re good to go..
There's an idea, just give the problem over to the hotel managers. As if hotels haven't suffered enough through COVID, now they are going to be overrun with homeless people trashing the place and scaring tourists away.

LA City Council employees should have to open their garages and basements and spare bedrooms to the homeless.
Bring back the old nut house programs.
Thank you Adam for your passionate rant. I concur with your opinion.
Adam is spot on as usual. The homeless hotel program in NYC was beyond a disaster.
What ?!? How non left wing democratic .
Let’s be honest, this has nothing to do with homelessness, and everything to do with financially illiterate people thinking this is going to somehow give power back to “da p3OpLe” by sticking it to corporations.
How so? Please explain how it was a disaster

Trying to explain this to some people hurts my brain. Adam once again fucking genius.
I remember when California was the state people wanted to move to. Now, people can't wait to leave.
That was when it was Republican..
Homeless people move here, while the more successful leave.
I went to move in 2009 and enjoyed it for a while...now it's just gotten rancid.
Truth tellers are priceless !!! RESPECT!

Most of those people are just hammering checks
you "believe" theyre trying to solve homelessness?
Amazing. I'm never disappointed with your show. Keep up the good work.
I love it when Adam goes off on this complete stupidity! Newsome & Co are purveyors of idiocracy...and they really are good at it...

if you haven't already, you got to watch the Carolla podcast with Newsom. saw it the day it came out and everything he said about Newsom came true.
Hotel owners will just leave the place and go elsewhere. This is such a Democrat policy. All feel good stuff with little actual thought put into it
Who is going to pay for all of the damages of the facilities?!
The hotel owner
The customers by paying higher rates in the future.
TAXPAYERS!!!!
Damn I love Adam❤️❤️❤️

Used cars? They obviously need new Tesla's.
Wow, way to put hotel owners out of business. Who would want to do this?
Gee, you'd think the the $500 million that LA spends on the homeless annually (10% of the entire city budget) would have solved the crisis by now!
I'm my country they moved the homeless into hotels. Now you can't go on holiday anywhere unless you're happy with your room being ransacked by the junkies next-door.
AC is awesome and so is Gina (WOW)Grad!!
Maybe suggest they house them in city hall or another government building?
As a hotel owner, I can't wait to welcome all the amazing fentanyl users to grace my establishment.
Look at this way, if they die from a OD it is still helping solve the problem.
I swear LA is shipping transients to San Diego, tons down here with full new backpacks and tents, even seeing in our residential neighborhoods.
The cost of cleaning and repairing the rooms will destroy the hotel industry in the city limits.

Fly into Ontario and hit up Rancho Cucamonga.. super safe nice area.
Florida is the answer or Texas. Anywhere that is a heavy red area will still have their collective shit together.
Just go to Florida.
Come to California, just go north on the 1 to the central coast. Beautiful and not as many people. No homeless either.
Great plan!!!
The day Gina has her own kid, her political views will do a 180*.
That ship has sailed
Wouldn't bet money on that
People will stop going to hotels, the hotels will go out of business and the homeless will be back on the street. Bravo job well done..
Note to self: don't go to L.A.
Amen, Amen, Amen, a thousand Amen's.
How many of these people went over the edge because of pharmaceuticals 🤔?
I’ve bought hotel rooms after 2pm plenty of times what a bunch of bullshit. Also are they gonna hire extra security?
RIP copper wiring in those rooms
Motel hell
Open the abattoir
now this.....this is the reaction that will stop all this bs
I'm guessing we'll never see Kimmel and Mr Carolla in the same room ever again 😂

They are doing the Hotel for Homeless here in the SW Washington....It's a nightmare!!! Good luck to you Cali people!!!
The motel 6 in my town was bought (by the city) to house the homeless. It has been a disaster

Has Adam mentioned which state he will go to when his kids get out of high school?
Allowing homelessness perpetuates homelessness. Enforcing existing laws can and will reduce homelessness to a minor manageable problem.
The best description of Newsom that I have ever heard.
So now we need to force all criminals just released to get to stay at a politicians house until they find other accommodations.
never listened to Adam before, he's hilarious!
oh yeah...and spot on
Does that include the 4 seasons?
how about a CA ordinance requiring all state and federal employees to open one of their own rooms, or a couch, to a homeless person?
I was thinking just yesterday; what happened to the SF Poop app? Haven't heard a word about it for a long time.
If these people on this committee or panel or whatever are so concerned about homeless people, why don’t they invite them into their own homes? Because it would be an inconvenience to them….
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Hotels Closed, and are converted to Condos.
End of hotels in the area....within a decade, they will all be shutdown.

90% suffer mental illness and/or drug addiction, Mr. Anecdotal evidence.

Gina Grad is gorgeous.
EXACTLY!!!
Newsom’s California sucks
Didn't this guy invent the podcast? Why does he only have 231K subs?
First problem- listening to anything Newsom has to say !!
This would essentially turn hotels into homeless shelters. Once the city puts a homeless person in a hotel room, they’re not coming out.
they'll become squatters.
How is an empty warehouse with cots, bathrooms, and a security guard not a better or cheaper solution than tax money going towards a single room for a single person at $100 a person a night.
Homelessness is a lifestyle choice.
I think Adam is a bit upset, I love this guy. I always say, how do you really feel, or don't hold back.
"How can we make this worse?" LA city council, probably.
I just wish they'd quit sending them everywhere else!
Wtf. What about people that order a hotel after 2? Also, If I'm the hotel, I'm lying or not cleaning those rooms until they're booked and paid for
Anyone that signed that petition should be forced to report any open bedrooms or couches
Another idea is those hotels could set their rates to $2k a night and book 100 homeless to force their bankrupt govt to pay for it. Or... hotels can just deny them if they don't bring a working credit card to cover the deposit

awesome
Welcome back to UA-cam! I can’t believe how much money has been left on the table by not putting Take a Knee on UA-cam from the beginning.

Lol. California at its best.
