[hotguybmx760]

[windboy1976]

[erik70041]

[s14sr]

I'm surprised Nevada's not making them pay taxes to live there.

[GoodieMike]

Homeless Americans living in tents that were made in China.

God bless the "American" CEO!

[libaicn]

@GoodieMike you sure those stuffs are made in China, coz I think China needs the tents more than U.S. Just make the tents in U.S. and try to sell them with a Chinese price

His name is Michael Moore?!?! LOL

[kma367blue]

I LIVED IN N.V. LASVEGAS FOR 5 YEARS THERE WERE JOBS THAT WENT UNFILLED COULD NOT GET ENOUGHT WORKERS YOU HAD TO MAKE A EFFORT NOT TO WORK . THE TIME IS NOW FOR THE GOV. TO TAKE ACTION EVEN IF IT HAS TO PAY PEOPLE SO CASH GOES INTO THE MARKET PLACE

[smp236520]

Oh those poor people. America should look after its own people. Billions has been given to Afghanistan, yet many of people do not recieve the aid it goes straight to the warlords. Do you think these countries would help out the US or UK if we needed aid. Aid to Pakistan is low because people in the UK know how much their hate us and how many are scrounging benefits whilst people are going hungrey.

[wolftreetree]

@smp236520

You are correct, blessings.

[moqutpar]

Atleast the city is doing what it can to help... unlike other cities that ignore the situation or even bulldoze tent cites.

[imhotep1]

God bless these people! At one point Reno had one of the fastest growing economies in the Nation.

[1959haywood]

It is time to take america back from the facists who are destoryng the middle class in the name of ever higher and higher profits, This at the cost of American jobs!30 years of Reganomics has left us with rotting cities,closed factories and staving American families.The reason is JOBS!! If you have no Job you can't Buy anything .I don't care how cheap they can make it china's sweat shops! Comunism is when goverment takes over Business,facism is when bussiness takes over Government.

[nbm34]

Here we see the reality of Bullshit facist America. Of course the Capitalist system

is the enemy of the very people who are ignorant enough to believe the system is the best they have. TRUELY THE RAGGED TROUSERED

PHILANTHROPISTS of America, are repeating history in the worse human state of existence imagineable. The rest of the American dickheads are fighting wars for their elites. NOT A FUCKING BRAIN CELL BETWEEN THESE dumb peopl. At least die fighting your real class enemies .

[zerge69]

0:40 "I know God is going to take care of me".

And what is he waiting for??

Sheesh, how can people believe God has our backs.

[mydeardiaries]

he will ..he knows what you can bear.

[zerge69]

And why would he make me "bear" anything?

[shaider77]

Give us your poor, huddled masses, yearning to be free. : )

[anyname666]

what the hell are people like Mike moving to Reno for???

Reno is a dying town

the casinos are closing down

Ancillary and secondary casino supported commerce is shutting down also.

Fewer people eat fewer groceries and buy less gas, get their hair cut less

WHAT THE HELL ARE PEOPLE DOING moving to RENO

RENO IS OVER AND DONE WITH

[remnant1978]

America how art thou fallen, Your glory is no more! Nations used to look upon you with admiration!

[He101A]

@remnant1978 The saying goes, when American ceases to be good, it will cease to be great.

[mydeardiaries]

not only usa, but soon all governments will fall.

[killerp21]

He moves to a city with high unemployment..... smart.

Lost his job at a gas station? wow must have been livin large.

[420jtt]

Shut the fuck up!!!! Are you a yuppy or a punk kid?

[mydeardiaries]

laughhhh

[mokkir]

Let's bombard Iran they have enough oil for us.

[starfireucsd]

It is the End of America.

[Atlantaminuteman]

Tent Cities are growing and wil not stop! Unless AMericans wake up! Illegal aliens get $38.00 hr in full benifits.

[He101A]

Damn illegal aliens, they steal jobs from the citizens.

[jeanqbxx]

how can they steal your job, they are uneducated and dont speak English, if an illegal immigrant is taking your job, you might be a loser.

[He101A]

@jeanqbxx They aren't stealing my job, but they steal the job from the average blue collar working class American. The economy is imploding, and people who have white collar jobs will do any job. Many illegal aliens are leaving the country anyways so who cares about this. This issue of illegal aliens is settled. The hyperinflationary depression will solve it.

[chloewolsey]

Looks like teaching people how to build building superadobe Calearth houses and how to grow Permculture gardens would be the most viable option for individuals, governments & churches & local people.

[CaptAntiGravity]

Hey Folks...this is a "Classic Situation" for "FEMA" to start letting "AMERICA'S" Hungry & Homeless start utilizing those billions of TAX DOLLARS that most of these folks have contributed to all their lives,to again having "FEMA" bringing in those "FEMA" TRAILORS!They were created for National Emergencies AND IF THIS IS NOT A NATIONAL EMERGENCY THAN WHAT IS?With all the land the Government has set aswide for itself,they could easily convert these into FamilyFEMATrailorParks with basic utilities!

[buzzz1213]

I have been unemployed for more than 1 year and SNAP turned me down for food stamps, my health is not good and future not bright, at least not in Connecticut.

[duckydicky]

email me with snap questions thelin@cahs.or g

[wolftreetree]

@buzzz1213 God bless, I know how you feel with health issues, I have them also.

[hearus1]

This video was shot when Reno had a tent city. They took down the tents and let people sleep on a slab of sidewalk where the police did random sweeps, throwing away the only belongings of people with nothing. Shelter time limits, having pets, and being thrown out of shelters ensured a hefty sidewalk population. And the city claimed not enough money to keep their new shelter going...much less help those hardest to help. Argh.

[chippis78]

The richest and best country in the world hu? Ah yes, the glory of ultra capatalism and the free market, people with no health care or homes. And Americans worst fear is taxes because to them it equals to "socialism"? what a wierd country indeed. Meanwhile in Cuba, no one is homeless, everyone has free healthcare and free education.

[remotehog1]

its easier to be homeless in a nice warm climate, try to be homeless in ohio where the weather can get so cold you could freeze to death.

[nouari69]

fucking bush!

[meinside99]

God bless that man!!!! But seriously, people need to stop having so many kids. It is almost like kids are the cause of most Americans financial problems whether directly or indirectly.

[Isckry]

"My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you: Ask what you can do for your country," (maybe Red cross could help? Or any other ONG working in Africa with american donations?)

[spinit2006]

The newly homeless are the victims of too many illegal aliens taking what jobs are available, the failed promise of the Freddie Mac & Fannie Mae programs to guarantee loans made to people who had no business getting loans, and the massive layoffs across America.

Obama bails out the corporate heads (who send jobs overseas) and the workers go to the streets. SHAMEFUL!

Learn the difference between Capitalism & Mercantilism.

[OverlordShamala]

My parents are hispanic, they lived here legally. Returned to Mexico to do it right, got VISAs to come here, spent about 15 years to become citizen & vote. One week after becoming citizen, both lost their jobs.

Coinicidence?

And the employees that replaced them are illigal aliens. Boy, both my parent heads were spinning at the turn of events.

[wolftreetree]

@OverlordShamala

God bless them both.

[OverlordShamala]

@wolftreetree

Well can't find the comment from which you are replying. Sometimes they disappear as people post but appear again so I'll come back to check.

[Burdock007]

@spinit2006 You saying in your channel you are pro immigrant plus anti racist and yet you call the immigrants alien. WOW i never saw so much contradiction in my life. Who really are the aliens here? what are you? American idiot? or i should call you english son of the british empire. USA founders fathers they came to USA to steal everything and to enslave other to work for then the immigrants so call alien at least they go to USA to work. English peace of shit. Dont pst me you are a idiot.

[spinit2006]

@Burdock007 "alien" look up the definition. You do know how to use a dictionary right? Immigrant. Look that one up too. Illegals are NOT immigrants. Immigrants came through and continue to come through LAWFUL and LEGAL paths to citizenship. Yes...the two words have different meanings. Look them up also. Now who is the "fucking idiot"?

[Burdock007]

@spinit2006 And YES! USA is a Nation of colleagues WHY? USA a Nation build by Immigrants You fucking idiot.

[nosupecualponerme]

@spinit2006 no man dont blame the illegals blame the goverment n u self for, let u gang goverment run u life, u let u goverment to charge u for work, for own any thing u need such as house n clothes dont forgeth u pay taxes for cover u naked body u think that is right?? u think is right for u goverment to charge for living on u supposeed own house?to charge u for work? all of that is been doing long time ago before even the illegals came to so dont be stupid blame it on u self .. slave

[westonsz]

Sad America has come to this. Declare war on the free traders. The government has done far more to harm Americans and destroy the American way of life than any terrorist. The government and corrupt politicians are far more of a threat to my family than the terrorist.

[PonziMadoff]

1 in 50 children in America are homeless!!

Think about that !

God Bless America

[Popajaja]

Gooooooooooooooooooooooogle:

"Taxpayers in the United States will pay $656.1 billion for total Iraq war spending approved to date."

[Popajaja]

The Iraq War will cost US $3 trillion, and much more...

[moniequa]

I'm sorry to say this but these people look like crystal addict. If you re not from the US, please dont let this video fool you. Real Estate crisis did not create this, these people choose to do drug and be homeless. We have plenty of social programs to help them but they elect to be here. This doesn't represent the US.

[OverlordShamala]

Most are drug addicts or cronic homeless people that can't hold a job no matter what.

But a few are working people that hit rock bottom. They will recover and they will look back as just a hurdle they had to clear. But for the cronic homeless... never.

One thing... is it my imagination or what? Seem democratic states like Nevada or California are the worse off.

[pohque]

Yes it is your stupid imagination. Look around you for once. There are plenty of people who were foreclosed on because they lost their jobs. Plenty of people who don't own homes who lost their jobs. Go and google yourself ...your name says it all...OverlordShamala?

[OverlordShamala]

That what I said that these states are worse off. Even before this current economic crisis, this states were already having financial problems. Especially California.

[OverlordShamala]

Strange you had to google my user name to find me, you could simply click my user name on top of the YouTube page Einstein.

Not to bright are you?

[OverlordShamala]

Finally... google it? What'ever for?

That's a name I mangled from a site that hosted a New Ager to mock that guy.

Kinda pathetic you are. Let me google your user name & learn about what?

Nope, that will be waste of time, just click your name directly.

[nanathebestrapper]

imagine las vegas like this,terrible!

[usergently]

Meanwhile, Obama is bailing out corrupt sons of a bitches!

[Redshift21]

Sobering stuff

[alexandriaheather]

This is STILL better than 2/3 of how the rest of the world lives!

This is still better than how many of the homeless in America live, where they are chased constantly from any space they try to rest and erect cardboard/canvas shelters.

WAKE UP CBS! Check out some of the homeless who are persecuted for their crimes of being POOR and UNEMPLOYABLE! Find the homeless children who don't have the luxuries of tents, water and security!

AMERICA IS IN TATTERS! REPORT ON THE REAL TRUTH!

[rswoods7]

AMEN!
