RIGHT! Now imagine being BLACK or HISPANIC and feelig like you MUST defend some dude ina suit or WOMAN making decisions for YOUR hood! Decisions like, an "Open door" policy for open Boarders UGGESTING they can find people who are not even HERE, while OUR people (Americans and so on) wait on a LIST for over a year or two or more!! Immigrants do not go to TRUMP Towers they come here. OUR homeless ... LMAO ...we have WINTER!
What a blessing to have a place to call your own even if small as is mine too (11squares) for this temporal life, as you say - somewhere to lay your head at night. I often think about the hundreds of millions of people who do not have a place such as I have or food such as I can buy, or clean water, or even clean air. But there are times when we can give a little to some others who are in need.
I was homeless in INDIA, and trust me it's a walk on thorns, single, christian, ALONE in spite of all the relatives, a rich older sister... First few nights I spent in the graveyard where my dad is buried... I struggled Today I have a roof and food and three dogs... 😀I thank Jesus Christ for giving me the strength help
True true spend billions in war on other countries.homeless n floods n forest fires....cursing from God to their citizens in USA??such differences in big cities in USA from 60s to 21st centuries. Dirty n drug addict n homelessness everywhere.
That woman who works for the city was so nasty. Heartless, just imagine how she treats people in need. The crazy thing, homelessness could happen to anyone.
She works for government. Not known for high wages. Just wait until her and her family can no longer keep up with the rising cost of living, stagnant wages and scare quality jobs
Glitter Rose my first thought for them was that hopefully they took a bus to someplace more manageable where they can rebuild their lives for example, North or South Carolina, parts of northern and western Florida...
My son and I were placed one time around my birthday and while I was out trying to make the best of it trying to look on the sunny side of things ...as soon as I got back the front desk guy apologized to me he didn't want to do it but we had to leave that night on my birthday back to the street they separated us and put me in a aka women's shelter comparable to a penitentiary and they were so happy to have me throw away my birthday cookies from my cousin my son has not been the same and no one cares ....their evil.
The rich get richer because they work and save money for tomorrow by making a sacrifice today. What would be sad is if useless douchebags got richer and hard working people got poorer.
@@pjay3586 It may seem a bit trite, but it may be more correct to read it as - "The love of many is A root of all evil." Pride was THE first root of all evil, which then found its way into the heart of mankind, and that first man didn't have money to begin with, but he became loaded with pride.. Pride comes before a fall, and such poverty is a tragic symptom of pride which is a father of greed. It is pride that exalts a man above his fellow man and refuses to bend low to help him when he is unable to pay his rent or whatever. Governments who ignore or refuse to alleviate the suffering of the poor have a lot to answer for. It is a mammoth task but it is fixable, with a good dose of compassion, mercy and tenderness, and political will.
So nasty. Everyone is "moving on" until they and their family can no longer afford to keep up with the rising cost of living, stagnant wages and the scarce shortage of quality jobs.
Me too!! 😞 I am Romanian woman living with my husband in a shared house, so happy to have a roof over our head and food, heating and running water! Thank you Lord!
Camille Rivera, Deputy Commissioner of NY's Dept of Homeless Svcs., is a tough woman of color Latinx, raised by a single mom, achieving a lot for working folks, but could watch this video and learn something about being careful not to become a crab in a bucket, scrambling to escape at the expense of those less high in the pile of bodies confined by the system of privileging exclusive access to our commonwealth by mostly elite white hetero males
M Tasch-sandor-simon believe me when I tell you, she’s a puppet... I’ve worked in the NYC WELFARE SYSTEM since 1977, grew up in it and government money, like these programs are meant for the sisters, bro in laws, etc of the ones seated in power..I can guarantee you, the rabbit hole goes deeper. When you lose your house, the lawyer given you, notifies his friends and family and gives ALL the particulars for them to bid, because they (the lawyer) can’t... I can go on and on. It’s disgusting, legal and rotten to the bone. Pray this whole demonic system is going to implode in on us. We are doing it to ourselves.
That Latin woman that was on this video representing the city, when she said lets move on, made me cringe. That kind of pompous attitude is the same attitude rich landlords have when confronted with facts. That pompous state employee would sell her family to be able to continue making her salary. State employees, politicians and landlords are the read problem in this kind of situation. Why doesn't the state just build or buy buildings to house the homeless. It would be cheaper than paying landlords.
I hope that one day her love ones won't face the same problem and tell them 'we're moving on' that mentality is unethical and unemphatic for such a person who representing the city. She must've forgotten that the world are round and that what comes around will one day comes back around. Such a disgrace...no sympathy whatsoever.
“We’re moving on” well lady that must be what you’re doing to all these desperate people just moving on and forgetting about them while you gain a profit. How sad and horrific
What a snob that lady is, but I bet if the tables were turned she would then know what these families go through but she along others just don't care!😑
Voltaire also said: "To find out who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize." "We who have posed as the saviors of the world; we who have even boasted of having given it "the" Savior; we are today nothing else but the world's seducers, its destroyers, its incendiaries, its executioners...I look at this world, and I shudder at its ghastliness; I shudder all the more as I know the spiritual authors of all this ghastliness. . ." ~~Oscar Levy, 1920
" If yours does not get spoiled, my own cannot be rosy. " That's the underline principle of capitalism. Although the hardcore capitalist will want us to believe otherwise.
I believe rents are out of control everywhere! They should have a cap on how much a landlord can charge! I was a landlord and always kept my rent affordable, the property in good shape and 99% of the time if you give people respect they will respect you back! Not one person should be homeless in America!
The cost of renting is ridiculas. In Florida too. Raising children alone is extremly hard. It takes 2 + incomes in a household to just get by. In NY 2+ incomes wouldnt be enough unless one had a high paying job. More are becoming homeless because of extreme weather destroying homes and buisnesses. West coast fires and floods , tornadoes, and hurricanes in midwest and east coast.
I agree! can't believe these landlords. You are responsible for the well-being of people who reside in your apartments. How can they evict a family?? who's never missed paying rent?
Homelessness is not the biggest of problems here on this video. The city's response is the biggest problem, and that lady from Department of Homeless services was really mean.
@@youngz13o And pretty soon most of it will belong to China. Who do you think they're going to be selling those horrifically overpriced properties to??
I worked in mission making 400 sandwiches (bologna) all love that meat..lol anyway its older people drug addicts..I see no kids only 17plus never kids,so whats wrong with new York?
@@yvonnespearing Nothing is wrong, well there is but not what we think. I've said before that the people you served those sandwiches to need more than food. They need information and inspiration. The place you served those sandwiches at could also hand out packets of information about orgs that are willing to help. If we stop handing out money and food and just gave them information they would eventually use that. It's all they would have. Right now I'm involved with the Doe Fund, an organization that helps homeless men on two fronts: homelessness, and lack of skills. You have to pay rent there so they put you to work at 15 dollars an hour and drug treatment is a requirement. They also help a man acquire some skills and certifications along with job placement assistance to help you get and maintain employment and housing. How many more people know of these types of organizations? Let's put it out there and stop with the coddling and begging these no good politicians to do the jobs our taxes pay for them to do and do it ourselves. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach him to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime.
@wagner1va you gotta be a bot. But if you're not then know this, homelessness, joblessness, and drug addiction don't care bout what color you are. Racism knows no boundaries and it could happen to you and how would you feel if someone called you filthy or whatever?
I'm sorry, but when you have this level of despair, hopelessness and poverty impacting millions upon millions of people in this country, you simply cannot call the "American Experience.", a success! THIS IS HORRIBLE!!!

These are people that were born and raised in the city of New York. It’s different for those looking from the outside. I feel the same way about London. As a Londoner (born and raised), I have a different outlook to wanting to live in London (not central lol), than some graduate that’s just moved there or non-London native.
This Camille lady will have her day... if she is the head of the organization and that is her attitude I do not want to see the attitude of her subordinates.... lord let me never have to hit rock bottom please I beg of you ...
It’s because Bloomberg was still mayor for a long time after this. He even wanted to run for president. Thankfully he’s a nobody now but he should be in prison with Cuomo.
Everyone is "moving on" until they and their families can no longer afford to keep up with the rising cost of living, stagnate wages and scarce quality jobs.
This is a sin to see so many people sleeping out in the streets in the cold weather! It's a disgrace that the richest country in the world can not help them with mental health, their health in general and offer them help to get out of this horrible situation! There are way too many homeless people in the USA!
All these empty buildings all over America could be turned into housing. More rent that stays stable so people are not evicted. Programs that keep the rents stable so that people will not be homeless. More rooming houses. Mental health services and housing for veterans. There are solutions. Families help your family and friends. Save and try to buy a home with a group of family or friends.
@@teresawicks-kq3bq I don't care what Jesus said 2000 years ago. Why didn't he end homelessness? I pay enough in taxes and oftentimes (but not always), people are their own worst enemy and put themselves in these situations. That one woman has 4 kids?? Another has 3?? And they're unemployed or underemployed? Where's the personal accountability with some of them? It seems many are just waiting for the government (AKA us taxpayers) to build them housing and subsidize their lifestyles.
@Elissia Thelismont Not cool ; South America people says that and I have to remind them of their Spaniard ancestors slaughtering Indians , Aztecs and Mayans . Portuguese didn't land in Brazil in a peaceful manners either .
They raise because they can. The market pushes the rent to go up. For a landlord, it makes to them to raise the price along the market because it will be filled anyway. Think about it, if you can earn $2,000/month by kicking out some strangers who is paying $1,500/month, are you going to do it? For most people, the answer would be "yes". That's exactly why we cannot let the Market decide everything. That's why the government should step in and provide social welfare for those people with lower income. That's why that "small government" concept is a bullshit made up by those wealthy people. Same thing goes to the health system in the U.S. What a shame.
As a Latina you’d think sis would try to make a change! Camille Rivera is one of the many reasons why this is happening just because they get crumbs from the pie
As someone with Irish and French catholic ancestry I can concur. Camille is nothing but an "Altar Boy" getting taking heat from the priest! She only see's green and has no mean to help others just the like rich guy from earlier and tries to skirt around the question when confronted. Greed is the big problem in the city and it has been spreading into Upstate. Agencies like Access-VR, Office of Mental Health (OMH), Office For the People With Developmental Disabilities(OPWDD), Northeast Career Planning and many others are just in it all for the cash and not the people they are serving. I have been working on plans to start a "shake down" to hold the mofos accountable! They owe it to us!
@I8thumper That's technically what she said. She is stating she doesn't practice what she preaches and is a dishonor to her crest whom all have worked very hard to be able to start and live happy and healthy lives in peace. Means she's betrayed and disgraced her family and her "flock" to benefit only herself. Get it now? She just expressed this in a metaphor. Plays on words are something that I'm good at too but that's because I'm part Lebanese.
Lol the race/ethnic solidarity thing is an illusion. A ms we saw in the vid, she's bought and sold too. She cares about those green flaps. As far as she's concerned, all that brown solidarity stuff is a smoke screen to be used when appropriate.

I said the same thing, the lady who was homeless at 16 and struggled with financial stability... why did she have two children before getting stable? It’s very hurtful to see her next of kin go through such a struggle.
@@taraterm3 I have seen more decent,honest, hardworking poor than those you described. Neoliberalism will widen the gap between the rich and poor. And it advocates a market that can destroy everything a family worked for all their life. Look at the sub prime crisis and you have to agree.
@@taraterm3 - what about the working poor? Those who dont have alot of kids? Rents and affordable housing is disappearing. And many people graduate college and still find it hard to keep up. Dont be so judgmental. I know doctors on drugs. As are alot of so called professionals. Some married couples are doing the same. . Come out of your bubble. Regardless, these are people not objects.
@@taraterm3 They screw up because they lack the resources and education to get out of such cycle. When you grow up all your life knowing nothing but poverty then you'll end up like that throughout your life. Most don't even know what a mortgage is.
Have been desiring to come USA but today after watching few videos am happy of my country Kenya and I will live here forever,,am so surprised in another video have seen even an Ubber driver in some states can't afford a house...life in US have seen it's not as I have always thought,.
1st off the city plays a huge role in displacing families. Deblasio and Bloomberg opened the flood gates for these developers to come in and make luxury apartments. There is literally no affordable housing . Gentrification is a huge problem here. There is also a huge number of other factors that play a role.i have been homeless and gone through the shelter system before. It is not easy.
Just Me so true I was homeless with 2 kids in nyc...I moved out of state and God blessed me to be a homeowner...Bloomberg as you stated destroyed the New York City Housing market. After September 11, 2001 nyc went completely downhill. I feel for these people because I was once in their shoes. I’m glad I left my quality of life is so much better and especially for my children.
It's simply the government the people who own now want to cater to the rich who are coming fr every where so I rent my property for 22 000 a month or to the poor people you do the math,its almost like they saying if you are poor get out of new York asap"
@Lisa Marie.....its time to come together....like families buying passports one at a time. Instead of buying toys for the holidays save up to began buying tickets. Its costly but coming together will help a lot. Small businesses can survive like making chocolate, cookies, cakes, grilling meat. We have to pray, for ways and He will provide. Don't give up. It can happen, stay focus to make a dream come true.
The media is a distortion of reality. Real americans are forced to scrape by, and starve to live another day. Nobody watches hollywood movies anymore, because it's bullshit.
The family that owns all those building ( cluster shelters ) is ripping the government off plain and simple. At the very least it should be in good working order. The greed is horrible.
And THIS is how the DRUMPF CREW GOT THEIR START. ALL THEY KNOW IS CORRUPTION, GREED AND THEFT. GRANPA DRUMPF THREW IN PROSTITUTION FOR GOOD MEASURE, DONALD HAD DIFFICULTY MANAGING WOMEN SO HE JUST CHEATED ON WIVES AND BECAME A CUSTOMER (STORMY, OTHERS).

Well, she was deputising. She was the person in charge of Homelessness Services while her boss was not present for whatever the reason. Sher is not just a normal civil servant.
Them questions began to scare her. Like anyone who disguises or dress up a lie to make it look handsome or pretty. But the truth is ugly just like her egotistical evasive attitude and demeanor.
I bet if she was to lose her job or get fired, she would be quick to expose ALL the hidden costs to illustrate the poor money management, as if she was an advocate.
It is about the money. Real estate in New York costs so much because the housing supply can't possibly keep up with the population. This makes it very expensive. There are cities that have artificial housing problems like San Francisco where people protest and try to stop apartments from being built but also complain about the cost of living. If you don't have the money to live at the epicenter of the world economy, then you should probably find somewhere else to live. I don't live there because it's way too expensive.
I"m a Democrat and can"t stand Democrats like her in our party.They are the very reason why we are being misrepresented.She needs to at least comb her hair.Not professional about her at all.I saw 'RED' looking at her.
Yes...low-class to act that way with a reporter asking question. The “moving on lady” just showed us all that she was caught in her lies by her reaction.
This documentary is all too real to me.When I taught at a middle school in East Harlem our student demographic were mostly homeless which was shocking.But now it makes sense.I pray to God for these people that they are able to find stable housing in good conditions.
Gina Joseph usually I don’t agree w/these comments bc just missing a paycheck can put a lot of ppl here. BUT then she said she’s been living there for 3 years and her “baby” is not even 2 yet. So clearly she was in a bad situation already when she got pregnant w/baby #3. I get being upset about your situation but at what point do u hold yourself accountable to make better choices?
Smileyrie James health care in the US is expensive. Most people living below the poverty line qualify for state funded healthcare which includes birth control. But even if you pay for health insurance through an employer or self pay like me, birth control is usually covered. My insurance has always covered birth control.
@@CrazyLady-NoCats I can't afford insurance, am in poverty but still can't get medicaid or anything. So, I can't afford birth control at all. But there are always condoms. Anyone can afford condoms.
And that Puerto Rican lady at 22:47she had a real bad attitude and she needs to go sit down somewhere have several seats she don't need to be the spokesperson for none of that advocates s*** that's going on
Yeah. Don’t challenge the 1%. We could house feed and educate everyone if we redistributed wealth from the Uber rich. You’re just parroting corporate talking points. Bernie 2020.
Yeah but if she by herself. She would not qualify for a family shelter. She probably would have been in a women's shelter only or on the street by herself.
TT O'Keefe No! Socialism is immoral. Stealing from those who have wealth and giving it away ends up with a modern day Venezuela outcome. It is wrong to steal so if you would like to challenge anyone or anything do something profound.
This is why you dont Judge people who are Homeless because you don't know what they have been through and understand how good you have it. I myself try and Help as much as a i can. I know what being homeless feels like and living in Motels. Not fun. Always help not Judge. Goodluck to all The Homeless in the world. Nobody deserves to live like that
I also find it disturbing when you don't make enough to feed yourself but somehow I have no problem reproducing multiple children that you can't feed. This is terrible decision making that the children will have to suffer from the stupidity of the parents
The heartbreaking situation many find themselves in should not be extended to the children, who are always the victims. For whatever reason this woman has continued having children, needs to be handled by the state. Perhaps conditional birth control such as IUD to receive benefits. The bottom line is that many of these people are trying and are working. Don't further penalize those who are doing their best they can but still cannot support their families.
@@firedancer54 Yes, but what about the many worthless females that aren't good for anything besides BREEDING? most are perfectly healthy when it comes to laying on their backs & have no desire to to work because more unplanned /unwanted kids means more bennefits.

Part of being a decent parent is making sure that you can PROVIDE for your offspring not have oops babies with every single man you sleep with & expect tax payers to foot the bill for generations to come & then wonder why other race's have a head start in life? It's due to FAMILY PLANNING NOT BREEDING with random men like an animal. No other race does this sound proudly.sick of poeple making excuses for pura Basura: pure trash to anyone that does this.

Every winter when I run home into my heated apartment...I can’t help but feel the wave of guilt and sheer sadness for the homeless. My heart breaks for them
15 years ago I had 1 kid, working making $9 an hour, but needed assistance with housing. I became a seasonal employee for the IRS making $12.63 an hour and was told by the housing authority I made too much to continue in the program. I said but it's seasonal and I can be laid off at anytime. The case worker told me I could have another baby or volunteer for furlough and only work 6mos a year to remain on the program. I declined but a coworker fell into the trap. 13yrs later she is still seasonal with 3 kids living with her mother. I worked my way up into management, bought a house and my one child is now saving to buy himself a condo at 19yrs old. Teach homeownership and equity to your children.
Wow. This hits harder when you're actually homeless during Corona. Even though i do work and have an education, tragedy can happen at anytime. Pray for me. Its scary in Memphis and sleeping out of my car as a student doesnt make it better. I pray for anyone going thru this situation. Its always someone worse off. At least i have a vehicle to sleep in.

Exactly the same here in London UK and in other UK cities .... Affordable housing is a thing of the past, many many many blocks of flats are being built but none affordable for lower income workers or the homeless, all being sold to foreign investors, the uber rich/rich ... the rich Chinese and Hong Kong rich property investors + rich investors from other countries, are very interested in these investments ... Social Cleansing is big money here in London if your rich whereby if your poor you don't even get a look in .... 6 London councils have sold off their very big council estates to developers after emptying these estates of tenants. People who bought their flat/house on such estates are only offered below the market value for their property, they're not allowed to stay on and live in their once previous home. The government/councils call it "regeneration" of dilapidated estates but it's been the councils who have deliberately allowed the estates to get run down, the developer then gets an estate at a knockdown price only to tart it up and sell on to rich property developers who then sell on to foreign investors who invariably leave these flats/homes purposely empty ...... SOCIAL CLEANSING ........
It is seriously troubling that the deputy from the Department of Homeless Services refused to discussed the "formula" regarding where all that money was going
@Badaboom 88 in the USA anything under $2k per month is working poor. it's not like Europe, hence why they are always hustling. It's never enough. Not like in Europe where $1500 can give you a living
I live in New York City and the minimum wage is $15. She might be talking about when she was employed. Unless it’s off the books. I could be wrong though
I was also homeless when I stayed in NY during '09. Rent was somewhat cheaper back then, but that all changed, because nowadays paying for rent + the first month's deposit is ridiculously insane to a point where you either have to be rich, or working OVERtime / seven days a week and save up every. single. dollar. which you earn, just to find a decent apartment! My heart goes out to those who got help and survived homelesss just like I did. For those who are currently homeless: Please, DON'T give up or let anyone turn you down- be strong and (YES) you WILL make it. Stay blessed 🙏

America; where the rich get richer, the middle class becomes the poor, and the poor become invisible. Horribly sad
Yep. And go to jail!

The rich get richer because they work and save money for tomorrow by making a sacrifice today. What would be sad is if useless douchebags got richer and hard working people got poorer.

The root to all evil isn’t necessarily money.. it’s human greed
DreamWeaver the saying is “the LOVE of money is the root of all evil” which means greed , you’re right
@@pjay3586
It may seem a bit trite, but it may be more correct to read it as - "The love of many is A root of all evil."
Pride was THE first root of all evil, which then found its way into the heart of mankind, and that first man didn't have money to begin with, but he became loaded with pride..
Pride comes before a fall, and such poverty is a tragic symptom of pride which is a father of greed.
It is pride that exalts a man above his fellow man and refuses to bend low to help him when he is unable to pay his rent or whatever.
Governments who ignore or refuse to alleviate the suffering of the poor have a lot to answer for. It is a mammoth task but it is fixable, with a good dose of compassion, mercy and tenderness, and political will.
DreamWeaver yes Democrats greed!!!!!

Camille Rivera, Deputy Commissioner of NY's Dept of Homeless Svcs., is a tough woman of color Latinx, raised by a single mom, achieving a lot for working folks, but could watch this video and learn something about being careful not to become a crab in a bucket, scrambling to escape at the expense of those less high in the pile of bodies confined by the system of privileging exclusive access to our commonwealth by mostly elite white hetero males
Where was this? What part of the video.
M Tasch-sandor-simon believe me when I tell you, she’s a puppet... I’ve worked in the NYC WELFARE SYSTEM since 1977, grew up in it and government money, like these programs are meant for the sisters, bro in laws, etc of the ones seated in power..I can guarantee you, the rabbit hole goes deeper. When you lose your house, the lawyer given you, notifies his friends and family and gives ALL the particulars for them to bid, because they (the lawyer) can’t... I can go on and on. It’s disgusting, legal and rotten to the bone. Pray this whole demonic system is going to implode in on us. We are doing it to ourselves.
M Tasch-sandor-simon I second that she just heartless soul
she only cares about her job, politicians are two faced
That Latin woman that was on this video representing the city, when she said lets move on, made me cringe. That kind of pompous attitude is the same attitude rich landlords have when confronted with facts. That pompous state employee would sell her family to be able to continue making her salary. State employees, politicians and landlords are the read problem in this kind of situation. Why doesn't the state just build or buy buildings to house the homeless. It would be cheaper than paying landlords.
I hope that one day her love ones won't face the same problem and tell them 'we're moving on' that mentality is unethical and unemphatic for such a person who representing the city. She must've forgotten that the world are round and that what comes around will one day comes back around. Such a disgrace...no sympathy whatsoever.
And they could turn all these dying shopping malls into apartments.

Wow so true

"We who have posed as the saviors of the world; we who have even boasted of having given it "the" Savior; we are today nothing else but the world's seducers, its destroyers, its incendiaries, its executioners...I look at this world, and I shudder at its ghastliness; I shudder all the more as I know the spiritual authors of all this ghastliness. . ." ~~Oscar Levy, 1920

" If yours does not get spoiled, my own cannot be rosy. " That's the underline principle of capitalism. Although the hardcore capitalist will want us to believe otherwise.
I believe rents are out of control everywhere! They should have a cap on how much a landlord can charge! I was a landlord and always kept my rent affordable, the property in good shape and 99% of the time if you give people respect they will respect you back! Not one person should be homeless in America!
The cost of renting is ridiculas. In Florida too. Raising children alone is extremly hard. It takes 2 + incomes in a household to just get by. In NY 2+ incomes wouldnt be enough unless one had a high paying job.
More are becoming homeless because of extreme weather destroying homes and buisnesses. West coast fires and floods , tornadoes, and hurricanes in midwest and east coast.
I agree! can't believe these landlords. You are responsible for the well-being of people who reside in your apartments. How can they evict a family?? who's never missed paying rent?
“Moving on” WOW! And there lady’s and gentlemen is the problem with this issue!

@@yvonnespearing Nothing is wrong, well there is but not what we think. I've said before that the people you served those sandwiches to need more than food. They need information and inspiration. The place you served those sandwiches at could also hand out packets of information about orgs that are willing to help. If we stop handing out money and food and just gave them information they would eventually use that. It's all they would have. Right now I'm involved with the Doe Fund, an organization that helps homeless men on two fronts: homelessness, and lack of skills. You have to pay rent there so they put you to work at 15 dollars an hour and drug treatment is a requirement. They also help a man acquire some skills and certifications along with job placement assistance to help you get and maintain employment and housing. How many more people know of these types of organizations? Let's put it out there and stop with the coddling and begging these no good politicians to do the jobs our taxes pay for them to do and do it ourselves. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach him to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime.

5 years later and the homeless crisis seems more visible than ever here, can't ignore it..
It’s because Bloomberg was still mayor for a long time after this. He even wanted to run for president. Thankfully he’s a nobody now but he should be in prison with Cuomo.
I hope Camille and like-minded others have a taste of homelessness since they don't care about the people trying to better their living situations.

All these empty buildings all over America could be turned into housing. More rent that stays stable so people are not evicted. Programs that keep the rents stable so that people will not be homeless. More rooming houses. Mental health services and housing for veterans. There are solutions. Families help your family and friends. Save and try to buy a home with a group of family or friends.

Why increase the rent, the buildings are already paid for numerous times over.
Mike David Good question.
They are intentionally trying to move a specific class of ppl out due to gentrification and greed
Landlord raise rent because they have to pay property taxes in order to do so tenant rent go up
Greedy
They raise because they can. The market pushes the rent to go up. For a landlord, it makes to them to raise the price along the market because it will be filled anyway. Think about it, if you can earn $2,000/month by kicking out some strangers who is paying $1,500/month, are you going to do it? For most people, the answer would be "yes". That's exactly why we cannot let the Market decide everything. That's why the government should step in and provide social welfare for those people with lower income. That's why that "small government" concept is a bullshit made up by those wealthy people. Same thing goes to the health system in the U.S. What a shame.
So glad I left NY 40 years ago....couldn't afford it there. Less than 500/month buys me a 2 bedroom 2 bath double wide manufactured home in AZ
Yup and less high paying jobs.
I left Brooklyn Fort Green 5 years ago and live in AZ to, wasn't loving it at first but now I thank God I left NYC (I do miss it sometimes)

As someone with Irish and French catholic ancestry I can concur. Camille is nothing but an "Altar Boy" getting taking heat from the priest! She only see's green and has no mean to help others just the like rich guy from earlier and tries to skirt around the question when confronted. Greed is the big problem in the city and it has been spreading into Upstate. Agencies like Access-VR, Office of Mental Health (OMH), Office For the People With Developmental Disabilities(OPWDD), Northeast Career Planning and many others are just in it all for the cash and not the people they are serving. I have been working on plans to start a "shake down" to hold the mofos accountable! They owe it to us!
@I8thumper That's technically what she said. She is stating she doesn't practice what she preaches and is a dishonor to her crest whom all have worked very hard to be able to start and live happy and healthy lives in peace. Means she's betrayed and disgraced her family and her "flock" to benefit only herself. Get it now? She just expressed this in a metaphor. Plays on words are something that I'm good at too but that's because I'm part Lebanese.
Lol the race/ethnic solidarity thing is an illusion. A ms we saw in the vid, she's bought and sold too. She cares about those green flaps. As far as she's concerned, all that brown solidarity stuff is a smoke screen to be used when appropriate.

It is about the money. Real estate in New York costs so much because the housing supply can't possibly keep up with the population. This makes it very expensive. There are cities that have artificial housing problems like San Francisco where people protest and try to stop apartments from being built but also complain about the cost of living. If you don't have the money to live at the epicenter of the world economy, then you should probably find somewhere else to live. I don't live there because it's way too expensive.

I"m a Democrat and can"t stand Democrats like her in our party.They are the very reason why we are being misrepresented.She needs to at least comb her hair.Not professional about her at all.I saw 'RED' looking at her.
Yes...low-class to act that way with a reporter asking question. The “moving on lady” just showed us all that she was caught in her lies by her reaction.
She is a bytch who doesn't care..
This documentary is all too real to me.When I taught at a middle school in East Harlem our student demographic were mostly homeless which was shocking.But now it makes sense.I pray to God for these people that they are able to find stable housing in good conditions.
For heaven sake! The woman with 3 kids in her grandmothers apartment. Where is the father or fathers. Do not have children you cannot afford.
Gina Joseph usually I don’t agree w/these comments bc just missing a paycheck can put a lot of ppl here. BUT then she said she’s been living there for 3 years and her “baby” is not even 2 yet. So clearly she was in a bad situation already when she got pregnant w/baby #3. I get being upset about your situation but at what point do u hold yourself accountable to make better choices?
Smileyrie James health care in the US is expensive. Most people living below the poverty line qualify for state funded healthcare which includes birth control. But even if you pay for health insurance through an employer or self pay like me, birth control is usually covered. My insurance has always covered birth control.
@@CrazyLady-NoCats I can't afford insurance, am in poverty but still can't get medicaid or anything. So, I can't afford birth control at all. But there are always condoms. Anyone can afford condoms.
@Tough Man Mike doubtful

And that Puerto Rican lady at 22:47she had a real bad attitude and she needs to go sit down somewhere have several seats she don't need to be the spokesperson for none of that advocates s*** that's going on
She was real bothered and is a bad liar. Something is wrong with her for sure
@@ecclairmayo4153 yesss ‼️ FACTS 💯
She has to be a witch!! I don't see how anyone could be that cold hearted.
Kissia Kardashian when she didn’t have a definitive answer she was moving on, bit*h. Smfh just disgusting
Such a strange and in many ways a very backwards country. I hurt for these people.
Homeless Families? This is why people in this day and age, should put having kids waaaay on the back burner.
The brotherhood of the wolf exactly
Yeah. Don’t challenge the 1%. We could house feed and educate everyone if we redistributed wealth from the Uber rich. You’re just parroting corporate talking points. Bernie 2020.
Yeah but if she by herself. She would not qualify for a family shelter. She probably would have been in a women's shelter only or on the street by herself.
TT O'Keefe No! Socialism is immoral. Stealing from those who have wealth and giving it away ends up with a modern day Venezuela outcome. It is wrong to steal so if you would like to challenge anyone or anything do something profound.
How bout not have market rates on $2500 a month and dropping wages? How about that
Shame on America in 2019 should've been solved.
LOL@"solved". I think you misunderstand amerikkka from it's beginning.
@Craig Schultz You mean like Lincoln (the republican) "promised" 40 acres and a mule?? That's a laughable fantasy world that you're living in.
.. it’s always a FIGHT that gets the
RIGHT !
@Craig Schultz
They already did it with Black people.
CANADA IS SAME BOAT
This is why you dont Judge people who are Homeless because you don't know what they have been through and understand how good you have it. I myself try and Help as much as a i can. I know what being homeless feels like and living in Motels. Not fun. Always help not Judge. Goodluck to all The Homeless in the world. Nobody deserves to live like that
I agree....please help
Somebody said that America is not a country it's a business and after watching this I cannot agree more
That Camilla Rivera was a little bothered wasn't she?....Gee, I wonder why???
She speaks like a sociopath, possibly even psychotic!
She is a liar...and not a good one. Resign!
Then lower the rent prices and people won't be in shelters
Sounds like a con. And bame are the fall guy ooh that "lady' at the end. Ms moving on. Evil. Through and through. She loves money more than humanity.
@Zenon Antruzinon ha ha ha ha ha
Rent control without being slumlords
Oh yeah, why has no one ever thought of that.
My flat will let for £2,000 pcm, but I can let it out for £600pcm.
What would you do?
I also find it disturbing when you don't make enough to feed yourself but somehow I have no problem reproducing multiple children that you can't feed. This is terrible decision making that the children will have to suffer from the stupidity of the parents
Cant say stuff like that anymore or people will attack you for speaking the truth. If you are in a bad situation, why make it worse!!
Agree well 👍 said
The heartbreaking situation many find themselves in should not be extended to the children, who are always the victims. For whatever reason this woman has continued having children, needs to be handled by the state. Perhaps conditional birth control such as IUD to receive benefits. The bottom line is that many of these people are trying and are working. Don't further penalize those who are doing their best they can but still cannot support their families.
@@firedancer54
Yes, but what about the many worthless females that aren't good for anything besides BREEDING? most are perfectly healthy when it comes to laying on their backs & have no desire to to work because more unplanned /unwanted kids means more bennefits. I've seen these low class females in action with my own eyes & many are horrible parents, so no one is going to make me sympathize with such trash.
Part of being a decent parent is making sure that you can PROVIDE for your offspring not have oops babies with every single man you sleep with & expect tax payers to foot the bill for generations to come & then wonder why other race's have a head start in life?
It's due to FAMILY PLANNING NOT BREEDING with random men like an animal. No other race does this sound proudly.sick of poeple making excuses for pura Basura: pure trash to anyone that does this. At what point do people take responsibility for their own actions & stupidity???
@@ecclairmayo4153
That's fine, they can attack me first speaking the truth instead of being descent parents because that's obviously not a priority. Many educated poeple of color are embarrassed and disgusted with these low lives breeding future criminals due to terrible parenting & no descent male role models in the household. Not speaking for all,just what I've experienced.
"How much money can we (the rich) make from the homeless?" .... My God, what an eye opener. A sad NYC ... it used to be an amazing city.
Every winter when I run home into my heated apartment...I can’t help but feel the wave of guilt and sheer sadness for the homeless. My heart breaks for them
Anna Sanna me too
Lucky be greatly for what you have
I feel the same. Also in the summertime, when the heat is scorching
You're a wonderful soul. Do what you can along the way, even if it means for them to get by one meal. Thanks.
I feel the same way about air conditioning here in the south
WHY DO THESE GIRLS ALLOW THEMSELVES TO PREGNANT 2-3 TIMES,KNOWING THAT THEY WERE STRUGGLING WITH THE FIRST CHILD,I DON'T GET IT......
@Asha X because it's not fair to the kids.
15 years ago I had 1 kid, working making $9 an hour, but needed assistance with housing. I became a seasonal employee for the IRS making $12.63 an hour and was told by the housing authority I made too much to continue in the program. I said but it's seasonal and I can be laid off at anytime. The case worker told me I could have another baby or volunteer for furlough and only work 6mos a year to remain on the program. I declined but a coworker fell into the trap. 13yrs later she is still seasonal with 3 kids living with her mother. I worked my way up into management, bought a house and my one child is now saving to buy himself a condo at 19yrs old. Teach homeownership and equity to your children.
Slum Lords....
because they can't afford contraceptives
@shareathought ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is happening all over the U.S. the rent has skyrocketed in Atlanta
cause too many people moving there
London to
nashville too
And here Am I complaining about not having the latest iPhone !!! We have become so thankless and greedy. I thank my Allah for giving me so much
Be thankful every day you had place to live. That why if you bless don’t be Ungrateful too some people. Praying for them.
"The Big Apple", they say is now "The Rotten One."
🤣THANK YOU
Idk who this reporter is but i like her a lot for shedding light on the truth💪💪💪💪😎😎😎😎
Wow. This hits harder when you're actually homeless during Corona. Even though i do work and have an education, tragedy can happen at anytime. Pray for me. Its scary in Memphis and sleeping out of my car as a student doesnt make it better. I pray for anyone going thru this situation. Its always someone worse off. At least i have a vehicle to sleep in.
I will pray for you. I hope things get better.
I can't imagine having a baby this is outrageous these people work they should have a home this is outrageous!!!
That's why America cannot take care of others,. America needs to take care of Americans first.
however, we don't plan on doing that. That's just what rich people tell you do that you will put them in leadership so that they can suck up all the money.
EXACTLY!
@@pocoalpaso
You are the reason why we don't have the money to support people who are struggling in our country it's as if you think we should just keep putting out fake money forever
@jas dhanjal
Oh my gosh! I'm not even black, I'm Jewish. But even I'll say it's a disgrace to see such a racist, ignorant comment in 2019!
She/He *IS* an American! Her/His ancestors had no choice! After the Emancipation Declaration, Blacks still had to serve in the AMERICAN army. But why? They're not American!
Curse you and the other ninny that liked your disgusting comment!
@@pocoalpaso
My friend, I don't know if you know this but our country is currently TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN DEBT! We cannot afford to help every single country on our planet!! Our "Prosperity" is a lie. All our money has been either counterfeited or spent on ridiculous unnecessary wars and the military (which btw is already one of the most advanced in the world)
The People come first.
I am so afraid of becoming homeless in this city. It feels like that could be your reality on any given day...
Just hang on. God has got you.
Best decision is to leave!
You are not alone. I was nodding through 90% of this documentary. I am constantly about to be thrown out of my apartment in Colorado due to rent increases.
HEY HEY!! HO HO!! CAPITALISM HAS GOT TO GO!!!!!!!!!
Camille (“moving on”) didn’t want to hear the truth. She didn’t like her LIES being exposed. It’s a shame that A LOT of agencies in the city act like this towards homelessness.
$2700? WOW!!! You can literally start over anywhere in the south with that
Black Queen where in the south? I need to know!!
@@angelac9181 NC (Definently look into Asheboro/Greensboro area) Southwest Georgia, probably anywhere in SC & Mississippi, Gasden, Al area (it's beautiful btw). My top pick would be Asheboro, NC. You can look into the prices on Greensboro Craigslist.
@Zenon Antruzinon I agree! but if they're having trouble paying this, I doubt they have it to save right now
Black Queen thanks!!!
@@angelac9181 you're more than welcome 😊
Exactly the same here in London UK and in other UK cities .... Affordable housing is a thing of the past, many many many blocks of flats are being built but none affordable for lower income workers or the homeless, all being sold to foreign investors, the uber rich/rich ... the rich Chinese and Hong Kong rich property investors + rich investors from other countries, are very interested in these investments ... Social Cleansing is big money here in London if your rich whereby if your poor you don't even get a look in .... 6 London councils have sold off their very big council estates to developers after emptying these estates of tenants. People who bought their flat/house on such estates are only offered below the market value for their property, they're not allowed to stay on and live in their once previous home. The government/councils call it "regeneration" of dilapidated estates but it's been the councils who have deliberately allowed the estates to get run down, the developer then gets an estate at a knockdown price only to tart it up and sell on to rich property developers who then sell on to foreign investors who invariably leave these flats/homes purposely empty ...... SOCIAL CLEANSING ........
Stop having so many kids if you live in poverty! Its a stupid idea.
Stay single. Screw having kids. Unless you are rich.
Seriously, if I had a poossy, I'd sew it shut...b-hole only, can't get preggers!
Life is all about choices...
It is seriously troubling that the deputy from the Department of Homeless Services refused to discussed the "formula" regarding where all that money was going
Have to move out of NYC ppl.
That is the only option.
Same with the people in California, Seattle, d.c., Toronto. Move!
EcClair Mayo That's why alot of them are moving South! Cheap living!
@@artworksphotography4682 cheaper
Corruption everywhere yet we have the guts to brand other countries and governments as corrupt
My heart is hurting for human kind!
Tears are filling in my eyes looking at this. We need God's Kingdom right now!
It's heartbreaking but also frustrating to see some homeless and people with low incomes that keep having children, why?
exactly
I saw a different video where a single mom had 8 kids and was being evicted!
There is a misconception that having a kid(s) will make it easier for you to get govn't assistance. In NY, not so much. It is very heart breaking.
@@barbaravyse660 And who's the winner . . . taxpayer, social worker . . . client ! Society, can/will go only so far !
These are the future generations that will work for the Country

Awaken The Greatness Within Ditto 😩
9 dollars woman gets paid in NYC. Absolute disgrace
$9 an hour is a homeless salary anywhere in the US, especially in New York. How sad the US has come to this.
@Badaboom 88 in the USA anything under $2k per month is working poor. it's not like Europe, hence why they are always hustling. It's never enough. Not like in Europe where $1500 can give you a living
@Badaboom 88 If rent is $2,500 for a studio apartment and you only make $1,440 before taxes, how exactly can you have a place to live?
The minimum wage for a under 18 year old worker in denmark is around 10 dollars your country is so messed up
I live in New York City and the minimum wage is $15. She might be talking about when she was employed. Unless it’s off the books. I could be wrong though
"They say this is a big rich town and I just come from the poorest part."
I was also homeless when I stayed in NY during '09. Rent was somewhat cheaper back then, but that all changed, because nowadays paying for rent + the first month's deposit is ridiculously insane to a point where you either have to be rich, or working OVERtime / seven days a week and save up every. single. dollar. which you earn, just to find a decent apartment! My heart goes out to those who got help and survived homelesss just like I did. For those who are currently homeless: Please, DON'T give up or let anyone turn you down- be strong and (YES) you WILL make it. Stay blessed 🙏
