Homeless in Eugene, Oregon Sidewalk Motel: Eugene is about the homeless population in what is called one of the country’s most livable cities. Eugene …
You need better equipment and editing. This is the best video on the real issue of homelessness I've ever seen. Dignified and highlights the REAL reason: unreasonable housing costs that do not match average income for the area. Well done! Please keep going with this!
Recommend beginning the video about 11 minutes in. The first gent is irritating (as commenters below say), but the rest of the doc gets more + more interesting.
Minor point: At 29:00, when Erik cites the Point-in-Time Count, he way underestimates. In January 2019, the count found 2,165 people unsheltered in Lane County.
Guy at beginning is full of excuses. He says Taco Bell won't hire him, but he has to have his service dog with him. How would that work? He medicates, and says he is lucid, and functional. The service dog thing is bogus.
I was homeless in Eugene. Eating at the mission. Sleeping in the woods. Good times. I was not a victim. Got a job, got a van, and got the hell out of there. Eugene is a swamp. Victims are vampires. The only way out is to lift yourself up, and climb. One must battle the dragon for the gold.
There are good people that are homeless, but the vast majority are homeless due to personal decisions they have made. You are not helping people by giving them anything more than once. Personal responsibility is a bitch…you either take responsibility for every action or rely on everyone for not.
just sitting here and listening to this guy wine about nobody helping him when his housing his food and everything he needs to exist is provided for him is more than I can take
Cry Me a River get a haircut get a job quit blaming everybody but yourself you don't get to carry your dog everywhere with you stop using that for an excuse
the guy at the beginning of this video pretends that he is having a hard time finding a job. one of his problems is that he can't bring his dog to work? who is allowed to bring their dog to work? Why would anybody want to bring their dog to work? And what makes him so special that he should need to do so? This guy is only pretending to look for work. In reality he already has a job it's being a victim so far it feeds him houses him and keeps him from having to have a real job.
Eugene sucks. It is filled with such cruelty to humanity. Some of the cruelest people in Eugene have "kindness" signs in their yard. Land of the new age hypocrite. Oregon ranks dead last in mental health care. It is a crisis people don't want to address. Mental Illness is the last prejudice people refuse to address. If you ignore the problem, it won't go away. It gets worse. Wake up Oregon.

Too bad it's not working. Things are only getting worse and worse.
Absolute shithole
