Really expensive for me. So this is michael. And her Financial Difficulties have gotten worse since she started to accommodate her niece jennifer an unemployed single mother who has 3 children to take care of. Leah. Lindsey and jayden fortunately jennifer receives food stamps. Every months on the forests they. Accordingly how many kids and year. They put in so much on their own i get every month on the far south 646. 00 just basically this for. 560. 00 euros a month to feed 5 people a tight budget before going shopping but 2 women check the balance on their card. And i. Surrender and jennifer can spend their food coupons in any supermarkets like this Discount Store where they regularly go. Once at the checkout the food stamp card works just like any other credit card. And in this shop in the appalachian they are by no means the only ones who use it how many people for instance here. And probably have the right honey can its a its a its a lot yeah yeah. Thank you. Donald trump is planning to cut down on the amount of people who receive food stamps he risks making an already Vulnerable Society even poorer. But ironically here they voted 80 percent in favor of him and their support for him continues to earn a little extra money serenity had done some household tasks for her neighbors for a few dollars she also cuts jamess hair who works in the mine he is a Loyal Follower of donald trump. I am from fan of his for a wife because hes done everything i say he did. You know trump is willing to help other countries but his country comes 1st. Yes i have been a long. Probe is a billionaire dollar proclaims his family everywhere he go is children who would walk for everywhere with you if you a lot about a person. Families in an israeli. Work. Its been lifes so many years maybe started years that theres not being jobs now there is our Unemployment Rate is way down. Really run now is yeah. Period there are a place. Every person us a can have a job and that what they told us there is a job for every person with the numbers. So if people want work they can find a job. There unwavering support is somewhat difficult to understand because since his election the daily life of individuals in the bleacher has not improved poverty is ever present and has led to some strange occurrences in this small town in the middle of the night dozens of cars enter a show ground. Ball roll running fuel. So. I suggest that you be back here about 3 or 4. Well it kind of cheap shot because it makes you think you decide its not like you want a concert to get there just to keep you keep your daughter stuff and you dont. Actually these people are arriving by the hundreds quite simply to see a doctor because every year here for a weekend all youre going to get in this line is medical on a Nonprofit Organization arranges free consultations now there is the future name. A lot of their families in this area are. The working class families theres struggling to choose between paying for medicine that can save their life or groceries for the week so. Its a shame to have to do it this way but youve got to take care you people in these are our people and this is why we take care of our people. Even though the Health Care System improved with barack obama 28000000 Americans Still do not have any Health Insurance services or. Surrender also does not want to miss the event she spent 2 hours on the bus to come and camp here but during the night a heavy thunderstorm broke out. The morning. Weve had an adventure we had a flood literally a flood it came really darkover and next thing you know weve got a gully wash it down to here it nothing and everything in there is so plank its everything. And. No sleep last night it sereny has arrived with all her family her niece jennifer and her 3 children they all need to see the dentist but medical fees in the United States are the most expensive in the world beyond the budget for a large section of the population so staying up all night does not bother them in your struggle to a medical assistant yeah its not easy. But you have to do it. The alternatives. Not to think. That i have to. The family arrive the night before because here the rule is 1st come 1st served at 6 oclock in the morning the doors open they announce the running order by 2 up 127 for myself leaving the core of what you want to hurt the next hour well call a group of 20 again all right. Once inside these patients discover a full scale field hospital. Scene that resembles more that of a humanitarian disaster and yet its really just modern day america here people are treated in turn by a horde of volunteers nurses Family Doctors but also specialists who are able to care for more complicated illnesses. The most remarkable part takes place in the sports hall transformed into a gigantic Dentist Office all day long 60 dentists descale drill fill and remove teeth by the dozen a daunting sight for some. Of the rising upon the scene is overcome with emotion. Beautiful all the people volunteering and. So many people getting help that need it. The former sister passed away. Cheer albert take take it out and she didnt have to take her place and she was younger than i am now and she was milder sister so. I think about why she wants her Health Issues because of her take. Their importance. In turns the fair. Are going to be examined jaden the youngest feels a little uneasy. I want you to write even if its when you come home from school got a good few times to get through thats really good ok. All right. In a situation like this prevention is the main goal of these dentists all has gone well for jaden hes eligible for a simple routine checkup but 1st the medical care that lies ahead is trickier shes already missing 5 more hours and is worried that theyll remove a 6th one that is extremely damaged after 3 hours of waiting its her turn to go up that hill like that memory ready i think ready or not start all right ill take you this. Hour my health and thats a young student about to complete his University Degree is going to take care of her before treating surendra hes already had time to familiarize himself with the job he spent his morning extracting teeth and you extract the day i 1st like. I started out 15 to you to keep me up i saw feel as though its a lot. Yeah yeah pretty good day yeah. He will spend 15 minutes removing surrender his tooth his 16th of the day. I. Think youd still. Like to have a vote. But here theres no time to take a breather surendra is a score to the gym locker rooms for the next stage. Rounds and im back here because i think that they where im thankful for everything. A dental prosthesis studio which like the rest is led by volunteers and funded by donations and drives literally that help relax lives relax. In this room they take the dental impressions. And in the room next door a new set of teeth is created in less than 2 hours surrounding his new smile is ready. To go as i feel. Awkward but ok yes. My god it had been 80 yeah. How many banks now. For. Your sake. And not that i can. Smile now and feel that. I want. To leave if. He gets to. Happen. It to me. It. Wouldnt make me think. That. If the family had paid for all this treatment they would have had to spend over 3000. 00 in the United States there are still some american citizens that are personally taking action to give aid to the poor. Chap. At the other end of the country a man has embarked upon a mission against poverty which has plagued the sidewalks and his city a legendary city that is seldom associated with poverty. Just this is los angeles i say listen hollywood. 38 year old punk elvis is furious. With what los angeles has become in recent years. Its not a 3rd world country so are the richest countries in the world its almost like a movie prop they dont its hard to fathom that like every single day this is how people live. By the pandemic no certainly no blood is just blind to nationalities. Has emerged with the we dont look like world to. Judge a. Comedy crisis sleaze christensens times we can do better we should be. Everyone is contributing each or own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created the response has been must so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that were in it together. Anybody who thinks that because i just won the election we are problems are over not simply not true the problems were there for President Trump theyre not going away you have grounds for the economy in the long room youre going to have huge debt to pay for the things youre going to do we still have a problem in the United States which is racism we have too many young are going to. Jails are going possessions or some of those problems are. Simply allowed to dont produce not does not solve them. The u. S. Has a history of complicated and heated president ial election whats different this time is that the biggest political events of the last 4 years is happening amid the coronavirus. And precedents of the level of civil unrest sparked by the death george floyd and the lives of the radical groups on both sides of the political spectrum. Right there where breaking a city ordinance. You say. These groups attract barely a week members who have taken to the streets making protests look like full scale what you see here. Of whats about. This demonstrators are sometimes heavily armed and they are not afraid of violence or law enforcement. If you will of war fled to deal with us. Or go in to meet those groups and their leaders to find out how far theyre ready to go to fight for what they believe just good for this country. Los angeles is the symbol of the california. The heart of hollywood cinema and the temple of luxury and yet today los angeles is the homeless capital of america in the last few years the number of Homeless People has increased from 33255000 beneath the business towers the situation has become tragic. When i was a kid in lived here it was nothing like it is now i left for almost 2 decades and i came back a few years ago and it just it just blows my mind its just going to increase because every month the cost of everything keeps going up theres no regulation so. Apartment owners and landlords can raise the money you know the rent. Whenever they like but nobodys paychecks are getting bigger. Outraged by the situation of these Homeless People obus gave up his job as a Sales Assistant he lives on the salary of his partner layout who works at the university in this way elvis can devote all his time to helping the homeless. A little further from downtown the woman has moved in beneath this bridge elvis and regularly pay her a visit. If i have been. Down tami has been living here for 5 years in a small tent that she shares with another woman inside they are at the mercy of the dangers of the street theyve already been assaulted several times but just look at everywhere they did they just tore right open and. Now now she doesnt even have a door and she sleeps out here at night theres also no lights right over here so its very dark and you know especially as a woman thats pretty damn scary even if a guy its scary thought he might walk up in the dark walk right and do whatever they want. To help these people elvis wants to do more than just bring them bottles of water his major project is hiding in the courtyard of his church he came up with the idea to build small wooden houses for them theyre not big barely 4 square meters but inside elvis in libya have thought of every last thing to improve the daily lives of these Homeless People. We do on and yes so what does it mean so if someone tries to open that window with alarm go off this phrase here allows people to sleep when people sleep they can think they can do better they feel better they want better. The house is also equipped with a fire alarm a light and a phone charger all of which is powered by a solar panel. Elvis thinks of everything to the last detail in order to give some dignity back to the homeless he even assigns them an address theyre obviously not going to be you know recognized by the post office are you know or some like that but. Its its really just psychological you know my my apartment has an address im sure your your place has an address thats the ultimate goal most of the people i anyone thats homeless is treated like garbage you know once once you have that title youre youre screwed because people look at you like a monster or you know like someone bad or you chose to be there or youre crazy or you know and its most of the time its not the case and so the. The little i mean its so easy to dehumanize people but the little tiny things its so easy to bring that back to a person. Each cabin costs 1000 euros financed entirely by donations collected on the internet but his generous initiative is illegal the mayor of los angeles has banned him from installing his cabins on the sidewalks of the city elvis doesnt care. And this morning hes going to deliver one of them to a homeless couple who very much needed. Hey. Im out of us i am to stay nice to meet here is their job Brownie Brownie crystal is 32 years old and his 3 months pregnant she lives on the curb of the sidewalk with her partner andre 7 i know you will be the love of oh my god oh my god made us i was hoping you were going to be gone. For 4 years now the couple have been sleeping in this tiny wheeled cart that is swarming with bugs yeah mammals like big bugs in the me do you eat me you eat me alive man i could feed you can everything well youve lived in the morning mostly not being able to have good hygiene. Elvis does not feel like hanging around the trick is to get this. Get this done and off before the cops show up. But all the same the small. House weighs 400 kilograms and the wheels remain stuck on the street. And. Theyre going to use a neighbor and another homeless person from the neighborhood come to lend him a helping hand. To get. The people who are home. And start to bring him back out. And as soon as the home is set up other Homeless People are begging him for a small house back i have i have a couple more almost ready to go so. Thank you thank you its much appreciated. And that it was. No evidence. But his project does not quite make everyone happy once you go back in your house and enjoy their condition. A neighbor has come to express her discontent shes against this but she says she doesnt want in front of her house shes kind of police and so we need to free alarm and well pray that theyre allowed to keep their house. This is how it goes. And los angeles. Can. Thank your luck to both of you congratulations. A few days after filming the police threatened elvis that they would destroy his cabin and if he didnt remove it he decided to move it with the couple on to privately owned land. In the end the disgruntled neighbor won her case. But some people are trying to fight the snubbing of the Homeless People in fascinating ways. But. We are heading to texas to puritan waco. This city has around 50 church. As for its 120000 residents here once a month a religious Community Organizes a strange Program People come from all over the United States to take part in it. Feudalism where you never married no no idea little but what do you know if you dont have were going to be home. For 24 hours these High School Students are going to live eat and sleep like the homeless. Much like 20 or so other participants all from middle class backgrounds each person has paid 60 euros to take part in this project janet darrelle came up with the idea 25 years ago the wife of a minister shes already accepted 30000. 00 people to take part in this astonishing role play challenge the goal is to create Compassionate Care for him and he and Company Everybody if theyre saying its a one year track and poverty cycles of poverty and. Thinking that. Theyre so far according to janet in order to truly experience the life of a homeless person you have to start by looking like them in this secondhand clothes store the participants are encouraged to dress like them because. I dont know i dont know Homeless People. Wear these. Yet theres a bunch of. Not fashionable. Jeans and be a little bit. But i think that. It is not that i am. That happy about that for the moment its not too demanding but it is going to get more complicated with the 2nd stage sleeping out in the open not in the streets but safely in this fenced yard. However 53 year old mother martha is slightly concerned. Like you know im scared of. Heights im scared of bugs. She thought long and hard before signing up to the program it was her husband who convinced her to take the plunge it doesnt look like a real illness situation right right yes yes just like it doesnt guarantee it that rats running everywhere yeah no its definitely a luxury. Yeah yeah. That is a comfort nevertheless and it wont be a very long night. d everyone at 6 oclock in the morning janet darrelle gives everyone a wakeup call and they dont look particularly well rested my mind martha. Its not real on this situation to say theyre saving them being on the street but this is not as safe as being in their home with their family so it just gives them a little bit more reality of living in the environment does on your body so by tonight takes about 24 hours to really start getting the idea that. This is this could be really rough. For the next stage of the program the participants are a little loose in the city center their task is to find something to eat on their own and without any money. You can smell the food. So. Jimmy said i asked this guy. Cannot take the things that went to restaurant. In waco like in many other cities in the United States begging is a punishable offense its also for. Wouldnt to rummage through the garbage cans but theres nothing in there. They are owned by the city and reclaiming anything at all is considered stealing in order to survive the homeless in waco i therefore forced to break the law our 2 participants are not going to find anything to eat and after 2 hours of walking through the streets in 40 degree heat martha feels faint. She must resort to calling her husband to the rescue. And i feel like i feel like im too weak well like i think you know like im too old and fat i cant do it you learn something about. What i would like what would be like to be homeless. At your age and be hard are americans truly ready to face up to poverty perhaps not their leader donald trump has recently announced that the rate of poverty is falling dramatically despite this 40000000 of the spello citizens are still suffering in its clutches. Is youll media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation community. Are you going the right way or are you being that. Direct. What is true what is faith. In a world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. Or a mate in the shallows. This is the time to hear on america. After 4 anxious days avoid joe biden claims victory to become the 46. 00 us president. Turned. The election simply for the republican. Rejection of the results
