if you want to fix the housing issue, then stop letting investment firms buy all the houses and artificially inflating the price. It's a real simple solution.
We have lived in the same neighborhood for 30 years. I understand that home prices go up. But this is ridiculous. I paid 36 thousand for our first home here and 30 thousand for a rental property. In the last few years the prices have gone CRAZY. 200 To 300 thousand for the same homes in our neighborhood.
many times there are plenty of available spaces....but they have rules like no alcohol and no drugs and you have to wash and bath....and you cannot yell and scream over nothing......most of those in these camps want nothing to do with those simple rules
I was homeless for a year and a half,i didn't have a drug or alcohol problem,i got to old to do my job and had no where to go i know how these people feel
If there’s nothing available for them in shelters, where will they go. I mean it’s hard enough their homeless and I’m pretty sure if they had somewhere to go they would. Telling them to leave without giving them somewhere to go is absurd
@@LadieKadiegetting clean doesn't give you a home, nor shelter. If you had to be clean to get into a shelter, then why is there an ambulance there almost nightly rescuing another overdose.
Homelessness is often a choice, and/or directly related to drug abuse and mental health issues. Allowing these encampments are FAR worse. Enabling this behavior gives you the debacle in California.
We kick our own homeless around when they are already in the street but immigrants got hotels, cash and food stamps on us....make that make sense😢 God help the poor souls. They don't deserve anything less than nice big travel busses pick them up and TREAT OUR OWN BETTER THAN NOT OUR OWN
It is not bad really. Except for the No idle law. That is sometimes enforced. Puffy sleeping bag inside a real sleeping bag. Dressing layers. Magnetic curtains. Do your 3 S's at the gym. Then go to work.

Jared makes me think of the homeless man I watched in Japan. Very respectful and they keep their area clean. The second one by the river looked like an addict camp. Most candidates that qualify for housing are minorities.
I just recently moved from the area near Jared's camp. Knowing him and others in that camp made the neighborhood a lot safer for me. I don't live near there anymore but I'm sad to see them go.
That's not true about minorities qualifying for housing. Most people that qualify have children. But now, there are whole families (mom, or mom and dad, and kids) living in cars and on other people's couches. We tried to find shelter for a 62 yr old black woman today. There's basically nothing. Lots of people priced out of housing, living on the street for the first time. Please don't make this a race issue. This is a national crisis, and we'd do better pulling together instead of pulling apart.
Where exactly are they supposed to go? They are HOME. LESS. I'd venture to say they aren't just extreme camping enthusiasts. No one should be unhoused but if we can't even provide a space for the most unfortunate of us to at least pitch a tent what type of society are we even functioning in...
*_Arrest? They're threatening them with clean, warm, dry, shelter, hot showers, 3 hot meals a day, any medicine they need, free dental, clean clothes, Internet, TV, and good company from a cellmate? ..._*

@@rod-s12s this country spends lots of money on other countries but doesn't take care of our own people. it's long past time to stop this. what they do know is shameful. WE can do much better than what WE are doing.
Columbus housed over 990 illegal immigrants in just one incident. Hotels are full on the taxpayer dime but none of these people are in the emergency housing.
Not having homes and high rent was clearly a supply and demand problem. Ohio recognize this and invited thousands of people from other countries to move in and paid for them an apartment there by increasing demand. Problem solved! 🎉
They get evicted for they live in a tent and yet they have to get evicted that's not right they don't pay rent so they shouldn't have to be evicted. These people have nowhere to go. I think it would be better if they got arrested they at least have somewhere to go until they get released again.
If that isn't his land then they can't be there. Its called trespassing. Your xurxumstances in life don't give you tje right to encroach on land you don't own.
we grew up so poor we never had heat and often didnt even have electric. while we may have had 4 walls you find a way to make it work. esp in a run down drafty trailer with no insulation. you be surprised how resourceful the homeless are and those that grew up hungry and cold.
Look it up! CEO’s of homeless shelters make 1 million plus dollars per year. Anyone else see a problem here? Plus they hire their families that also make astronomical salaries.🤔
I’m sure that Columbus has a housing authority; and that there are plenty of abandoned buildings that could be seized by the HA and renovated to provide low cost housing for the residents who have jobs but can’t afford to pay the high cost of renting an apartment or a house.
The majority of homeless aren't down and out boxcar willies looking for a job like in the 1920's. They're drug addicts. The state needs to get them jobs, put them in an apartment and tell them you will be a productive member of society or you will rot in jail. Period.
How about someony take every thing away from and not give you a job even if you try and take all your money away the only money your allowed to have is from the street s and take your ID and birth certificate away and see how long you last🎉
Columbus should be ashamed of themselves. Evicting people off land that has no place to go? If you drive around Columbus there are so many empty buildings, gee, think those could become useful?
Every city and county in every state must certainly have some property where they can assign homeless people to go and provide security, assigned spaces, port-o-poties, trash dumpsters etc... and rules to stay on that property. These are our citizens, not cattle to be herded here and there, and we must find a solution. Shame on city, county, state and federal government for not solving this problem.

@ I didn’t have more than $100 in the bank when my daughter was born, supported her and her mother detailing cars and went back to school full time and finally got a good job. No amount of welfare will help these people if they aren’t willing to help themselves. I’ve had my lights and heat shut off multiple times and didn’t just give up.

"The goal is for people to move inside during winter months." F*cking WHERE?? If the homeless had somewhere to go they wouldn't be living on the streets. High rents, high utility costs, high food prices all contribute to homelessness. In addition, there is a Housing Shortage here that is ridiculous. I know of at least 5 families with children who lost their rentals right before xmas & there was Nothing available in the entire area. (we're an hour from Columbus) Shelters fill rapidly during cold months & stay full. There is never enough shelters even when homeless numbers are down. smh
How come that immigrants legal and illegal have endless housing and Americans live on the street? This is not a discriminating rant...... it is a fact.
According to the Federal Housing of urban development -- there are now approximately 770,000 homeless in America up 18% from last year. Migration, lack of access to affordable housing are 2 of the main reasons.
Hello! I am a formerly homeless person who nevver did drugs or alcohol, actually had a savings acct. As a homeless person, and who is now a homeowner! Do tell me more!
I know the CSB is a non-profit but the need to care more about the quality of housing they put people in. The unit I am in now never had an inspection done, and they are well aware. I don't know the standards they follow when it comes to annual inspections, but it's no where near what CMHA's standards are. They do not advocate for you to have things repaired by landlord. Ohio is already landlord friendly and you can get stuck in some awful places. If they plan on helping the people in these camps they need to care a little more or the problem will continue. If they truly want to "achieve the best outcomes for people facing homelessness in Columbus and Franklin County. They need to show it and do more for the people they find housing for.
Not all but some of these people just don't want to work. There is no need to if you don't mind living in a tent when the government will give you nearly $300 in EBT and a little cash aid every month.
if you want to fix the housing issue, then stop letting investment firms buy all the houses and artificially inflating the price. It's a real simple solution.

ALL OF OUR TAX MONEY IS GOING PLACES BUT A HOME, WE CANT EVEN GET A STIMULUS PACKAGE, SURELY CANT BE AMERICA
My heart breaks for them. Why do we house migrants and no help for them???😥
So where are they to go? These people have nothing as it is.
Give this group an open lot and let them build tiny homes on it. No one should be homeless in this massive Country. Old hotels is also very good.
According to the Federal Housing of urban development -- there are now approximately 770,000 homeless in America up 18% from last year. Migration, lack of access to affordable housing are 2 of the main reasons.
How is migration worth mentioning? Because there are migrant shelters that = no shelters for legal citizens im assuming, correct?
If the encampments would just hold a sign saying (Need money for Ukraine) they wouldn't get messed with 😅
Yup. Exactly!
They should have stayed and got arrested. Atleast they would be warm and have 3 meals served to them 😂
It's a little hard for people to move inside.When you don't have enough Shelters for them to move inside, obvious other purpose

I’ve worked those camps dummy! They’re addicts!!!!!!
Hello! I am a formerly homeless person who nevver did drugs or alcohol, actually had a savings acct. As a homeless person, and who is now a homeowner! Do tell me more!
I know the CSB is a non-profit but the need to care more about the quality of housing they put people in. The unit I am in now never had an inspection done, and they are well aware. I don't know the standards they follow when it comes to annual inspections, but it's no where near what CMHA's standards are. They do not advocate for you to have things repaired by landlord. Ohio is already landlord friendly and you can get stuck in some awful places.
If they plan on helping the people in these camps they need to care a little more or the problem will continue. If they truly want to "achieve the best outcomes for people facing homelessness in Columbus and Franklin County. They need to show it and do more for the people they find housing for.
Not all but some of these people just don't want to work. There is no need to if you don't mind living in a tent when the government will give you nearly $300 in EBT and a little cash aid every month.
How sad.
They should help Americans before foreigners
🙏
Where? Nobody can afford to live. They should call these Bidenvilles
Nobody cares
Not just illegal Allen's
I guess columbus mayor wants to be visited by 3 ghosts!
Colleen needs a rest.
