When will California politicians do something about their poverty epidemic? 20.6% live in filth

We hear CA politicians circle-talk about improving infrastructure, healthcare and education but we almost never hear them talk about their nation leading poverty level and or their nation leading homelessness. Has California become comfortable in their filth? Have they conceded to becoming a thirdworld society? Even the “citizens” don’t say much about it or seem to mind living in plight. What kind of people do you have, what kind of place do you have when “citizens” are complacent and accepting of living like human cockroaches?

Poverty in California: Recently Released Census Data
A fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage!

Don't forget a National ID card and the implementation of the General Welfare clause so that you can give them everything they want. Dumbass.
 
The RWnuts like the OP who love to ridicule the poor don't realize that the joke's on them, because,

those poor people, including those working for low wages, get YOUR tax dollars to assist them in making up for the difference between very low wages, and a living wage.

So ha ha.
 
California is awesome under Dem rule so they won't need any federal bailouts or assistance, that leaves more for other states :muahaha:
 
The problem is....being poor does NOT mean one has to live in filth. And many don't. But you put poverty out there, people immediately think "nasty/dirty/filthy" just like when the word homeless is used...the same happens with filthy/mental/lazy/addict. That is not true either in most cases.

Let me know how many photos of Mexifornia communities you need me post.

It's funny how RWnuts like to say that we shouldn't have a national minimum wage because in places where the cost of living is lower,
there should be a lower state minimum wage, if any.

But you never hear them argue that in states where the cost of living is higher, it's appropriate that they have a higher minimum wage.

Now why do you suppose that is?

Only a stupid fuck who has never been to Cali would even suggest that a $15 would help in any way in Ca. A damn 1 bedroom apt will run you 1500 in San Jose.
 
More misinformation from the right .

The poverty level is about average in the US. It’s when you use that “supplemental “ version where the number is screwy . The article says that takes into account “cost of housing “ in that standard. Which causes a spike for Cali because housing is expensive because the state is SUCCESSFUL!

Hold on a minute..,are you suggesting that cost of living shouldn’t include housing expense?
When you figure your expense budget do you exclude your housing cost?
Back to the drawing board....Try again Timmy.

Im saying it’s not a true reflection of poverty. Just because you can’t afford a 1/2 million dollar house in Frisco doesn’t make you poor.

Here’s your list of poor states. All red accept New Mexico .

You're using the concocted poverty rate to get to 20%.

Concocted...huh?
Well, I’m sure NYcarbineer and Timmy are far smarter than the analytics professionals and the other trained professionals whom are paid to track these demos....I’m sure they have decided to include housing expense in with real poverty figures for no reason.
“I don’t want it to make sense...therefore it doesn’t”
Isn’t that right boys?

"This difference can primarily be attributed to the state’s higher housing costs."

That's from your own link.

So what does that mean?
Should housing expense be part of the equation or not?
Stop trying to be stupid.

Stop trying to be stupid.

You are trying to equate Cali to the rest of the nation . Which is already done in the poverty stats .

Truth is that the red states make up the “poor” states in the union . You play with the numbers to slander California because righties are mad that the state is a front runner in FUs to Trump.

California also happens to be right near the bottom of how much a state gets back from the federal government compared to how much they pay in.

Meanwhile, you live in a converted garage with seven other illegals in Mid-City.....and you’re right Hollywood and Silicon Valley kicks ass. WOOOHOOO!

What’s crazy is that LefTards will tell you in a spin of not so clever word play that poor people have the RIGHT to be disgusting criminals because they’re poor.

Being poor is no picnic. But poor people should know better...poor or not. And I speak from experience. Well...the past 2 years anyway. I may have lost everything, but what little I have left I keep clean. Might wind up with a dirt floor, but it will be swept daily. And if I lived in that area in the pic that was posted, I would be out there cleaning it up. Daily if I had to. Being poor does affect self worth but if people would stop whining about it and DO something with what little they have....well.....

How much capital intensive renovation can be accomplished in poor neighborhoods.

Post of the day...you brought me smiles with your candid honesty...thanks for that.
I can tell you are the type we enjoy helping, the type we believe deserves the help. It’s too bad we can’t do more for people like you by doing less for those who don’t deserve it.
Again....THANKS!
