    I am very glad to hear that the Yu family got out of that SRO... I happy for them... A *nine year* wait is the proof-positive that our housing system is inexorably broken.

    so that is how SF city is working. Low-income family can live in big apartment with very little money while other low middle-income family are struggling to pay $3000 or even higher rent.

    Thank god for individuals who care about helping people because the government in the state of California is clearly a failure on so many lvls. The reason this family got to move and got help is because Han Li intervened and helped them move up the waiting list. The incompetency of the government is truly shameful

      What are you talking about? The govt has a limited budget. It can’t simply give money to anyone who ask for it. I sympathize with the family, but why in the world did they keep pumping out babies when they know full well they can’t afford a bigger living space?

    Imagine a whole family living in a room but everywhere in the media... on UA-cam, on TV, in the movies.... everyone lives in normal houses or apartments.
    It's like these people chose to live on the planet of Mars.

    Still living off of society - my parents got us out of a 1 bedroom apartment and into a house. We were a total of 7 and they did on their own, no housing assistance - ON THEIR OWN. No money, didn’t speak any English but still climbed their way up! These sad stories need to be shown with stories that overcame. Not showing both failures and success is not telling the whole story. Not all immigrants are pathetic - there are some that succeed and achieve the “American Dream”!

  • @bakerstreet101

    The parents cannot speak English, so I am guessing they immigrated to the USA. They didn't fall into hard times, they started there. How did they get the right to come to the USA?

      Not all immigrants are rich; the less fortunate could potentially get here legally by lotteries, family or job sponsorships...

      They usually immigrated to USA by family chain. Even after they moved to USA they usually live in the area where they don't even need to speak English. Most of them are living by the government financial assistance. Some later become very rich but they still pretend to be poor to enjoy the benefits of CA government.
