From the Abraham Lincoln radio studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center.

With James Katан's schedule to give him on 200 Chuck Donuts clappets with his

homeless people and we'll explain specifically why I say quote unquote homeless. That is a misleading

term to a large extent. And boy, the conversations you've had, these have so interesting.

Yeah. And this is my new line of thinking on the whole drug addicts on the street story.

How about we talk to the people that are on the street and then people that have gotten

off the street and have them play a role in making the solution as opposed to people with

master's degrees and social planning and politicians still talking about it being a housing crisis,

which it's not. It's a drug crisis. Yeah. Exactly. Pronouncing from the ivory tower,

what's happening down in the grubby, grubby streets below? It's unbelievable. So this stuff is

so good. Now some of the audio is a little scratchy, but maybe turn up your radio a little bit and

listen best you can. Michael, let's just start with clip 30 and we'll go from there. Where you from?

Louisiana, Texas area. How long have you been in San Francisco? Since June, you're going to be homeless.

Pretty easy. I mean, we're going to be realistic to pay you to be homeless here.

When you said that San Francisco pays people to be homeless, what did you mean by that?

You mean that literally? Yeah. I mean, I get 620 bucks a month, dude.

From general assistance or how is that hard to get?

Phone call, bro. Wow.

Phone call. Do you want to pay your stamps in 620 bucks cash? Wow.

You get about. Why wouldn't I do it? You know, it's three months, dude.

So 620 bucks in general assistance in 200 bucks in food stamps a month with a single phone call

for being a junkie. Free money, bro. Exactly.
