I migrated to US in 2001 and worked delivering pizza in SF for years. I always saw people selling or using drugs around the golden gate park, but rarely would see a person laying on the streets. What he said about “homelessness” being a propaganda term used by progressives I already knew it and have been telling my liberal wife for 11 years. I also have been warning my Americans friends about the danger of the idea of free things and not being charged for small crimes, but now we see the results as stores are being robbed and vandalized by people that is not stealing to buy food, but to take advantage of the system. They’re defunding the police, letting dangerous criminals leave the prison to commit crimes again. You still have the 2nd amendment but it is almost impossible to fight back, now imagine without it? A society without the protection of the police and can’t defend yourself. In Brazil we have many frases that we live by, like: “whoever spares the wolf sacrifices the sheep”. “I’d rather see the criminals mom crying than my mom”. Another good example of evil propaganda is what happened few days ago in Waukesha. A black guy kills many and injured dozens more and the liberal media is not even mentioning his name, in fact, they blame the suv. I came from the suburbs of Rio de Janeiro Brazil. I saw the most horrible violent crimes in my neighborhood and surrounding for almost 2 decades, and I’ll te you a secret, criminals DON’T care of what color you are! Wake up my Americans friends, there’s a good reason for immigrants like myself and millions more trying to cross the border to live here. Don’t believe in the propaganda that this country and its people are evil because once the USA falls, every single one will collapse too and the next super power to take the spot is China, which the globalists believes to be a great example of government.
Good for you! I come from the perspective of being an alcoholic and addict. I worked being a Peer Supporter for a couple years here in Ohio. I totally relate to what Michael is saying as well as yourself. "Shelter" contrasted with "housing" is the way to go. Requiring a recovery program and honest attempt to abstain, and try to be a good person, as a priority, should be the goal. Some will go slowly, and some will recover quicker, but a change in behavior is necessary or they will die. And trust me, some don't care about death. I found my recovery through AA, the spiritual way, but willingness, open mindness, and honesty are indispensable. AA won't take Gov't monies, but very often cooperate with state fundes recovery programs. You're right about "spare the wolf, sacrafice the lamb". A fitting quote may also be "he who does not work, does not eat", from the Old Testament. These are ancient morals that need accepted by the addict as well as society at large. Hopefully a guy like Michael will serve on an administration that can present and implement an adequate solution for this problem. Addiction and mental illness is a convoluted, difficult, and complicated situation in which to solve, but we could definately be doing much better than we are! 👍🇺🇲
Michael Shellenberger, thank you for your hard work and your honesty. Please continue onward and call out those responsible for the failed drug & housing policies in San Francisco.
You cannot advocate for a person in trouble unless you seen where he's been. Clearly this man should be in a position of power for these cities democratically run that are in serious trouble. We are not Amsterdam and we do not need to be compared to any other small city-state. Fix what is broken.
It’s simple, it’s about self-responsibility. How do you direct client towards “change talk?” (Motivational interviewing)- enforce consequences. People need to understand that when people aren’t realizing they are making poor choices, they will keep making those same choices.
Finally a liberal can see what conservatives have been saying for years. Conservatives are as compassionate as liberals. The difference is liberals have rose colored glasses that prevent them from seeing compassionate solutions.
The solution. Start today, Like Russia or Israel, and possibly other countries, Mandatory Civil Service or Military service Including drug tests, with a civil contract signed as to your personal requirements as A CITIZEN, Russia has a requirement of military service to be president. A society of young people who went through military indoctrination and mandatory drug tests, will experience harsh reality, and can not turn to drugs as the coping mechanism, unless the like the harsh punishment namely, the brig etc… I went through Miltary service started 18. Something only less then 10 percent of citizens go through. I call it socialism in a capitalistic society. You have all these young people who learn dignity honor and pride to only learn later they are protecting a society who if you listen to cnn, is pinning all their self worth and identity on the color of their skin, of which there are only white brown yellow black and red people. It is lunacy. In the miliarty you learn that we are all on the same team. The military system as whole travels through eternity, while empires fall, like Rome etc… The military system is not about self identity and self aggrandizing. It is about service. This service is abused by some who control the direction of the young people in THE MILITARY full of emotions of honor pride dignity dedication sacrifice. We need p;unishment and all the drug addicts need to be rounded up and instantly and harshly detoxed, and forced into a military or civil service outcome, where the social worker is infact a military person. I think societies fall apart because you have weak and self interested people who have a mouth, and can go around creating propaganda, like screaming fire in movie Theatre, when there is no fire. False alarms False flags, on such issues as sexual orientation issues something that affects a very small percentage of people, or skin color, and then creating group punishment on the rest of society, when there is a confrontation that fits the narrative that the media is looking to trump into a larger issue then it really is.. Then you have these defund police things. And you see the loser drug addicts and other criminals just going for it Again get a hold of me, I will help you develop a solution, and spread it on the media, a solution that a lot of people would be behind.
I want the full interview with the homeless dude he was lit , this dude boring af and just trying to sell a book , I wanna hear the true authority speak
He's only pushing books - he's as bad as liberals are - he's glad their policies fail - so he can write more books and become the darling of the right wing....
Stop giving $ without meeting conditions, make people.accountable for breaking the law by putting them in jail or prison and give them labor inside, provide treatment for mental and drug addiction inside. Cannot give people.a pass for breaking laws and criminal behavior. It's more of a priority to take people off the streets if they are a danger to public safety and health.
Discouraging. Liberal policies fail - especially that stupid needle exchange thing - it one who sees it - what's he do about it? Work to change it? He runs home to mommy and complains about it so he can be the darling of the right-wing and cash in on people's misery.
There is hope - as long as there are right-wingers around to write books and cash in on people's misery - there is always hope that he'll become a millionaire - the ultimate goal of this...
@@herroyalhighness5634 How is he part of the solution? He came to grips with the problem and like all good conservatives started writing books and contributed to the Shellenberger get rich fund. He's cashing in on peoples misery and stupidity.
So Republicans don't put forth enough ideas for fixing DEMOCRAT-RUN cities? Doesn't matter how many good ideas GOPs put forth, or what programs they try to pass -- those are DEMOCRAT-RUN cities and they will continue to implement Democrat policies regardless. That's where I stopped taking him seriously. He should perhaps look at who actually runs San Francisco. Hint: There are no GOPs anywhere in sight. Explain how GOPs can fix SF.
Democrats always blame GOP's for what they are solely at fault for. It's the Democrat way. Liberalism should be officially classified as a mental disorder.
I don’t like the way he talks about building institutions it’s just another way to abuse the weak past history proves that and I have always said DOCTORS ARE JUST LEGAL DRUG PUSHERS
@@christinavance1128 Hopefully he'll figure out that he can't keep those liberal ideals and have a free society. Unfortunately we see a lot of that in my state -- people who fled California, but still believe that the state should be in charge of their lives.
He's simply flat-out dead wrong about one thing - drug addiction and mental illness are not the only causes of homelessness. There are people racked with medical conditions and debts so much so that they are homeless.
@@HMMELD not at all, just laughing at someone who lacks the ability to formulate an argument, enjoy the skyrocketing gas prices, highest inflation in decades and the massive influx of drugs from our southern border that your vote gave this country.
