i appreciate the work you do!

Fentanyl, heroin, coke, opioids, beer, wine, liquor. That’s what happened to some Americans. Btw those vices don’t care if you’re a republican or democrat, live in a blue or red state. Every state has homeless and addicts. You can pretend you don’t but you do.

What a testimony!!! 🙏🙏🙏I'm genuinely curious to know how you earn that much monthly

I work at a restaurant here in Houston Texas. Things have been really difficult as I'm a single mom and trying my best to pay bills and take care of my daughters.

Ukrainians are not guilty in your problems. American billionaires, government and president are guilty. They have geopolitical interests in Ukraine, that's why they give money and weapon.

Well, you can spend a couple of billions now or you can send your kids to fight World War III as for immigrants in the country. I agree with you 100% but disagree about your Ukraine comment two different things,unless you wanna fight World War III.

I agree. We have children going hungry and doing without. It’s hard for people that do work hard to make ends meet.

I think we all know what happened to this country.

From n j Trinidad Mr nick Johnson I have been following your documentaries on homeless rundown cities in the us a question are your aird information have been gaining any positive response from the government on taking care of business at home before making stimulus package to support foreign countries

Interesting take, can you give some areas this happened? like street names or neighborhoods etc I ask because I don't know where this would have happened as 10 years ago the only places to clear that I know of were way outside of the downtown Austin area.

If I was one of them, I would NOT want any help from the government. The government has turned communist.

cruel city, every one of them

LMAO, that never happened.

I'm so sorry for your hardship. Here in Slovenia nobody went bancrupt becose of health -care bills. It is such a tragedy what's happening in Usa. I hope you are in a better place now. Hugs!

You get arrested so you have a warm place to sleep and 3 square meals

When your homeless, at least when your in jail you get housing and food. So being in jail is better than being homeless.

@@user-ll6zn3xv9vit’s hard to understand the real reason why this is happening, could be Mental Illness.

It seems from looking at pictures from that time everyone was miserable. Everyone was in the same boat, families were stronger, people were used to living with less. We've become so disjointed in America that we don't care anymore. We don't care enough about the mentally ill to get them in asylums. We don't care about the drug supply because if we did we would threaten to stop all trade with Mexico and China. We don't care about the demand for drugs because we lock people up instead of treating them. We tolerate theft, so it continues, make the penalties severe. Many homeless have given up, why not, go stay in a shelter, it sucks. They like to use tough love which many homeless don't sweat. When you don't have a home, reliable food, money, a car, a job or anything, tough love doesn't bother you it's just one more abuse. The experts haven't figured homeless out so don't expect them to fix it now. Make a place for the homeless to live, provide showers, safety, help with work and transportation, the ones that need help will lift themselves up and out, the others will leave, it is simple.

When Gov makes money off dope its imposible to stop it 😢 20 years in Afganistan c i a stole tons of H fyi

But neither are we. Just them

Most people didn't own a home prior to the depression unless they were farmers. And there was definitely a substance abuse problem then too.

Crime, poverty, homeless, shootings, unsafe neighborhoods, streets smell like pee. Liberal utopia : )

That is because a lot of people from California came to Texas and decided to take over our state and run it into the ground because they don’t know anything about politics, finances or real estate. That’s why they’re poor, live in the hills instead of the rich. Not very smart. Now we just have Yankees running our southern values into the ground. They just need to go back to Cali, or wherever they came from.

@@andrew-gb3qo bigger, yes. But better? How exactly? Gridlock most of the day, downtown so crowded nobody goes there anymore (lmao yes I get the irony). But Austin used to be laid back, you could zip out to the Lake and then head downtown in a couple hours to continue getting plastered. Wild parties always to be found (ok maybe this is an age thing). But I just don’t see the spontaneity anymore. Who really wants to move to TX to live in a highrise in a dense urban area. And on the ‘urban’ subject, yes, a lot more ‘urban’ (if you catch my drift) do these ‘urban’ people add anything? No, they overwhelmingly degrade the quality of life.

Dude, I walked the streets of the riverwalk last October and there were homeless bums and mentally ill people all over the place.

Thanks government!

They gave all our wealth, 80% of it, to the top 1%, and now they blame homeless for being homeless.

@@BajatheChickenMan "Thanks government!" You can thank the GOP who cuts taxes on billionaires every chance they get. Basically you can thank the people who hate govt and who give our money to rich people while leaving everyone else to go homeless.

Yes, I was there for a conference in Feb. and walked around to get to supermarket kind of outside the downtown to grab some food I could eat in my hotel room for breakfast (everywhere else too expensive and crowded).

If Sam Alito wasn't social engineering with his Five Year Plan For Toddler Supply we wouldn't be prepping to quintuple our homeless population in 20 years. Oh, also, when some 65% of babies born are unwanted we're also going to have a massive crime wave in about 20 years. Or, rather, the crime waves that reverberate through all generations except the one who came of age 20 years after Roe (when crime dropped massively in the 90s) will resume as they have always done prior to women having rights.

But all govts basically are working towards the Agenda2030 plan which will only make everything worse...this all has been done on purpose!

Didn't you hear what the woman said; George Soros and his money is funneled to District Attorneys that basically let criminals go. It's a power struggle based on money, not politics! Somehow the most evil of people have all of the money that is dictating all of the chaos. Politics is just theater and a way to line pockets. Same with the banking globalists that are pushing immigration across all western countries, they need more people becoming indebted to the system to remain powerful. Don't be confused, it's simply a system to keep people as perpetual slaves.

No person is perfect. Both parties have there own issues. So many of these politicians should be replaced with a average working joe. This country would prosper again.

We have an entire party whose voters brainlessly "vote for the guy with the R next to his name" because they don't care about individual politicians, they just want to make sure they vote for the guy who is owned by the bankster class, the fraudster class, who will punish women and minorities for being women and minorities, and reward silver spoons for being born rich.

Same shit different toilet paper

One of the best. You think they protect good people anymore? No way lmao. If you got into any sort of altercation where you defended yourself you would be tossed in jail immediately.

Yes and no. While the police need the money to have the resources they need, many police departments are spending money becoming the Army, by militarizing themselves. You need the Army, then call the army; not try to become the army. The police are supposed to project a friendly image, in their blue uniforms, use and friendly with community; not to be soldiers driving tanks. All finning to militarize the police should be cut 100%, while funding for training to deal with civilians should be increased.

How so? I never saw a cop do anything for the homeless aside from beat them up. Speaking of which, cops never do anything for anyone other that beat the shit out of black people for the Karen who called the cops on them for doing something normal in public.

Austin was extremly smelly and trashed

Being allowed to freely move from state to state is causing the problem. State to state migration is out of control and states need to start imposing limits on external population growth. Americans moving nonstop to "greener pastures" causes overpopulation, leading to urban sprawl, traffic congestion, etc.

Your comment is only one with a heart also my comment keep being kind

And mental health. And nobody seems to do any more than politicize the issue. The left blames the right, the right blames the left. But one thing that they have in common is that the homeless give them both a sense of superiority and motivation to work whatever job they can get for whatever wage they can get in order to pay whatever rent they have to. The homeless give them a sense that somehow, they've made the right choices so they can slap their own backs and say, "job well done". The homeless give them something to point at while telling their kids, "If you don't do well in school, go to college and get a good job, you'll end up just like that". And they're right, they will, but they don't pause to consider that many aren't academically inclined and might have all sorts of incumbrances on the path to academic success. They call it choice, pat themselves on the back again and heil America, "the land of the free". And they don't pause to consider that the jobs that such people could once do to support themselves barely exist any longer. They've got a job because they're better than the homeless. It's their choice that Dad wasn't an auto worker in Detroit or coal miner in the Appalachians. Actually, they don't stop to consider that for a moment, they're just better. Who cares if the homeless were born into generational unemployment and poverty. We all have choices. I do. Who cares that mental asylums across the nation have been abandoned. The homeless are mentally ill by choice. I've got a good job and health insurance, I'm one of one out of six Americans being treated for mental health problems because I made the right choices. Americans used to fear and hate Communism. It gave them a reason to work hard and prosper. They had to be better. Communism died. At least now we have homelessness to take it's place. Thank God.

It's the culture. You don't see Asians on the streets. Naw. They are making that money. 🤔

@@erindonofri689 And across all Asian cultures, they have family.

Elect more liberal democrats! 🤣🤣😂😂

I agree with you 💯%

They can get help. But they don't want it. That's the problem. It's a culture thing. You have to fix the home issues first before it gets this bad. Too many single moms and not two parent homes.

Ask any homeless person. Their reasons for being on the streets have more to do with family. They grew up as children in the worst possible home lives. They were treated like throwaways as children, and now they live on the streets with that same identity. Being homeless means you have no consequences or personal responsibility. It’s total freedom in their eyes. Meanwhile, everybody suffers. Homelessness isn’t an economic issue as much as it’s a social issue.

You're absolutely right, you can defintely see a pattern @@TVHouseHistorian

Oh come on, it's so easy to see the problem. THERE IS NO COMMUNITY OR FAMILY LIVING ANYMORE. This is the result...degeneracy

Rogan is no where near the homeless. He lives in an ultra exclusive area that is a wonderful place to raise your family. That's standard here now. Nothing but neighborhood s with mansions. If your not well off, don't move to Austin.

Even the rich areas in LA were having homeless show up there. In Austin, it's probably the rich areas are pretty isolated from all this stuff still. People were camping in Beverly Hills, etc lol

@@mmhthree Homeless never go into those areas, they stay in the poorer areas. They are moving into more and more of middle class areas stealing packages, cars, etc. The average person no longer feels safe. Those ring cams are catching so much.

The problem with your "effective" this and "effective" that is that the U.S. Constitution; federal, state and local laws; plus a huge pile of court decisions prevent any effort to push the homeless into getting help, treatment or institutionalization against their will. That situation is probably a majority of the homeless situation.

I see a lot of homeless in the library. It just means we really aren't helping them move on with their lives. They have nowhere else to go.

We desperately needed the ban on encampments. Austin was starting to look like a third world country! With Austin being the capital of Texas they need to clean this shit up and give them places to stay. We have so many abandoned buildings that they could do something with those.

Cleo is part of the problem, she complains about the Democrats, while she remains a Democrat, so since she IS a Democrat she continues to vote Democrat...what an oxymoron she is.

Cleo blames the Republican majority running Texas Government for Austin's problems but fails to mention the true failure of Austin which is Democratic Mayor Kirk Watson.

Very well said.

Unhoused people just lying on the shoulder of the road or behind a dumpster, or camping on the highway median is beyond what I saw growing up. I don't know if it is the loss of the manufacturing jobs or rising costs leading to the explosion of homeless. Maybe we should ask the homeless how to fix the problem.

Most people i know who are my age are comfortably retired, some retired and not so comfortable, but none are homeless.
