A grand opening ceremony will be held Wednesday for a high-rise building in downtown Los Angeles that will house homeless individuals. abc7.com/post/...
@Lp78Ch Nah, 30, semi retired, own property. Why do I care? You may ask. Principles, ethics, morals, whatever term you choose to use, and having experienced leaving home at 17 - yes, houseless. I can sympathize and see the flaws with our current system. I don't understand why unhoused is in quotations. Are you insinuating they have houses ?? I thought that was the problem. Them not having a one.... my bad.
What reaction are they going for? Anger from the working classes and a "us vs. them" mentality. They keep us fighting each other so that we don't pay attention to what those in power are taking from everyone.
they built and opened one of these buildings in koreatown, quality of neighbors is garbage now, people screaming at night for no reason, cops and firefighters constantly being called ALL WEEK. These people do not deserve nice things, they will destroy it in 6 months
yeha but there are nice people among them to which does not deserve to be homeless THAT is why EVERYONE needs to EARN their income/the things they want because THIS is what comes out of getting something too early You do not get it. You get a mere image, empty box of promises which will only push you to never be satisfied with what you have/be ungrateful and become corrupt
You should really educate yourself before running your mouth on social media because not all homeless people need mental help🙄I work with lots of American homeless families that became homeless during covid that weren't mental and couldn't get help because the Biden administration was catering to illegals
they need shelter while taking care of? it is a basic need Think before you type! ACTUALLY they need HELP in general(includes bare minimum needs to even get out of mental illnesses like food, clean water, SHELTER) but only the BARE MINIMUM so they can do things by themselves for the rest
@@berrymint6384This isn’t bare minimum. This is a massive waste of money. They could help so many more people but the elites in charge think everyone needs a gym and a cafe like they have in their own residences. Sick phucks
@@berrymint6384First they say to build shelters and now they say it’s a waste of money and that they need mental help🙄 People always say sh!t and then regret it for not giving it second thoughts.
You need to educate yourself as its been all of the illegals and their anchored offspring that have been trashing our country for years and years,they started trashing everything in the 80's
@annoravetz5188 Nice reading comprehension. If you notice, I put a laughing XD after the question. Insinuating that it was absurd to think they would not be bringing in homeless vets. You cry bout homeless people (which includes HOMELESS vets btw) getting help, I cry because the system failed them, and now the only pity the vets get is some guys in a yt comment section with zero systemic analysis and zero solutions to the problem.

@@lbrodka8390 well if they have a job and don’t do drugs, they should be able to rent a room. They don’t pay rent so where is all there money going to?

Half of hard working tax paying citizens in California can't even afford to buy place that 🥵 It's INSANE 😡 No wonder homeless population is Growing 🥵 And it's not fair 😡 My son has 2 Jobs & he can't even afford to rent apartment in los Angeles 😡 WTF man "
These look nicer then what your average working blue collar person can afford living in California. I hope this doesn't end up being migrant housing like so many other shelters do and get preferential treatment. The people who are US legal citizens and Veterans who quality should come first.
Hopefully it's for our homeless Americans thatbare everywhere and that all of the illegals and the babies anchored will be sent back right away to where they came from
…..California deserves itself!!! Completely RIDICULOUS!!! I had to SPLIT a dried Top Ramen Noodle brick with my roommate, (couldn’t even have my OWN) often times, and ate generic cereal, and generic peanut butter through my 20’s, scrimping and saving for my first home by 29. (ZERO help from parents, family, anyone) ……this is COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS.
You do realize there's homeless people serving u food, ringing up ur groceries, but let's keep pretending every PERSON that's homeless is this drug riddled criminal. Instead of complaining, come up with a solution.
@@semajmirage1017…..No one helped me in my early 20’s!! (Parents included). I ate Top Ramen, and peanut butter, and generic Cheerios for a decade SAVING MY MONEY from my job for my first home!! Give me a BREAK!! People make TERRIBLE choices in life, then want to be bailed out!! Ridiculous. 🤷🏼♂️👎🏻🤔
@eddieg6436 I'm sorry no one cared enough about you to help you out in your time of need, but helping people in need is a principle I stand by you can agree or disagree idc. all credible data shows that more than half the u.s. citizens are one emergency (those things you dont control/plan) from being homeless themselves. I'm glad you made it, bud, but data doesn't care about u individually. This is a deeper problem. Pick up an article sometime read a bit. There's endless info at the ends of ur fingertips.
I think it's unfair for those in LA who work hard everyday. Most of them probably can't afford to buy a new house, yet the government uses all that taxpayer money to support the homeless? That's really too much. If I were the mayor, I would spend the money on helping the homeless get a job rather than let them easily live in a place like this.
So this is what you get for voting. Dont complain. You guys voted for this results. Dont move out of the state. Keep working, keep paying skycrocketing taxes.
I like to think that it shouldn't be considering that these illegals are receiving $835/month. Both kids and parents. They should be able to pay rent in a lower rent costing community.
@@desmondcastro3679 All of the illegals,dreamers,daca,and anchor babies need to go back to where they came from so our country can focus on homeless Americans that were born here that are everywhere 🇺🇲
Who in the holy hell thinks this is a bang up idea?!?! Give the homeless a warehouse somewhere with a soup kitchen, beds and showers… not a high rise being footed by hard working tax payers! Give me a break
This will turn to shit in no time. A gym, cafe? WTF? 600k units for free while our children who work and pay taxes can’t buy a home? We are overtaxed and is to pay for shit projects like this that don’t work. How about if people who want to fund shit like this be taxed accordingly, and people who don’t want it keep their money? I choose to keep my money.
What will it look like in 6 months though and how many will exactly use it. I applaud the effort but 1 billion dollars? That contractor struck a gold mine.
HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can I live there!!!!?????? I'm homeless, lost everyth ing that I had built for 20 years. Now, I an staying in a shithole of insanity with "friends", that are NOT my friends. I need help. Seriously, this is no joke.
They tried this in several cities...as public housing...it quickly became a haven for crime...drugs, robberies, homicides, etc...the surrounding property values quickly fell...the calls for service for the police skyrocketed...in fact, they will have to designate a police sub-station on the same block, if not within the same building
I understand the mayor made it her main priority when she took office but this is a slap to the face to the single moms who actually get up and hussle and maintain a job to provide for her kids and she is barely making it living in most likely not a nice new place. There is already help in place for those who need it thru lesser luxury places as it out to be. Shame on the Mayor for just wildly spending $660k on each unit. Instead Spend $6000 and make 1000’s of less expensive housing units We said help them, Not reward them for being homeless
Los Angeles Mayer's best Idea?... Wow!! City pay $600,000 for Each Homeless????? Yeah right.. We living in the Golden State.. Homeless Golden State. !! Building builders just dig to discover large gold without a shovel !!
What a FANTASTIC idea! What could go wrong? 1. Pruitt-Igoe housing project erected in 1954. 2. Cabrini Greens public housing, Chicago 3. Jordan Downs, Watts , LA 4. Louis Heaton Pink Houses, Brooklyn 5. Johnston Square Apartments Baltimore 5. Queensbridge Houses, Queens 6. Robert Taylor Homes, Chicago
this is gonna turn into the LA version of Ponte City in Johannesburg South Africa...what could possibly go wrong...meanwhile people who work hard can't afford shit in this economy.
I would completely understand if it was for people who are struggling to get housing but are WORKING SOME SORT OF JOB. but to give it to people who just DO NOTHING ALL DAY is RIDICULOUS. helping homeless is great but there are so many people who also STRUGGLE to work even multiple jobs and can’t even afford anything like this and they just get it for FREE?!
Stop enriching your partners with purchasing hotels, Building high-rises to help homeless. The more you people helping homeless, the bigger your pockets get. To effectively address homelessness, we need to reconsider our approach to supporting those with severe mental health issues. Many of the homeless individuals are victims of abuse-physical, sexual, mental-and struggle with substance abuse. Simply providing shelter or opening soup kitchens isn't enough to tackle the root causes of their suffering. Reopening and modernizing mental health institutions could provide a critical component of support for these individuals, offering a safe environment and professional care. Over the past 30 to 40 years, various programs funded by tax dollars have not sufficiently addressed the issue of homelessness. It’s clear that we need a more effective strategy, one that goes beyond temporary solutions and focuses on long-term support and rehabilitation. Investing in mental health care and developing comprehensive support systems might provide these individuals with the help they need to start over and rebuild their lives
What I don't like is that they will put homeless drug addicts into something like this and they don't have to pay any rent and the homeless that are trying to get off of the streets and are working or going to school, either get the streets or a darn homeless shelter where they have to share 1 tiny place with 5 other women on one bunk bed.
@jk-mm5to My guy, you interact on a daily basis with people who are homeless that you would never know were. They are truck drivers, fast food workers, servers, nurses, etc. 1/3 of homeless abuse drugs and alcohol 2/3 of that are people that have struggled with mental health and addiction disorders for a lifetime. That leaves a majority of homeless people as everyday people who fell on hard times. They all need help.
I PAY 2300 MONTH 800sf for my one floor apt it's 28 years old with NO UPDATEDS these people are moving into a penthouse this world is not a joke my life IS.
Jesus puts it in our hands to help people, to help the unfortunate. You are all in the comment section acting as if this is a disservice to you, i bet you soil yourself once you hear someone speak bad about Jesus, however you yourselves are just as bad for REJECTING the VERY clear teachings of Christ. May you all have shame on yourselves. Ill pray for you all, and i hope you "God fearing" people actually come to realize who is of the pharisees. Caring for only yourselves, your earthly possessions, your "i dont have"s. We are supposed to be of God, shame on you all!
@@imagineme6406In California's audit this year it was found that 24 billion of taxpayer & federal grant dollars allocated for the homeless were spent but not accounted for in the last 5 years. This homeless project is a propaganda scam that isn't sustainable.
