3-30-25 Akashi Media Podcast Live Mayor Bass and LAHSA Audit

Prior Mayor Bass coming into office as Los Angeles City mayor the Roofless people epidemic was already present and the housing agency LAHSA had been in operation with contracts with the cuty-county and given funding for over billion dollars. When LAHSA supposedly did homeless counts they said they counted over 300,000 people homeless. They were awarded over $500,000 people to housed the Roofless but the roofless residents of Los Angeles were able to go during the Winter months to contracted homeless Winter sites from the months of October to March and then they return back to their encampments instead of getting permanent homes although affordable apartments were being built. Maybe a few people got placed through mental health agency or just looked in their own for housing. But there are different sizes of families and categories to place people in housing from single, persons, seniors and families but they could fit in multiple categories. Most of the affordable apartments built don't have large enough units that have large families. Large apartment units need to start being built from four bedrooms to eight bedrooms so large families can lease adequate space and still be affordable. Because there are housing programs such as HUD that will pay up to seven bedrooms. Permanent housing is not paying rent but can be homeownership but without having foreclosure on mortgage and default on property taxes. Affordable apartments need to start out affordable and increase rent gradually. People are relocating from the USA to other countries to live in cheaper homes. So that could be an option for some that have relocated to Costa Rica and Egypt because of cheaper housing for $300 to $600 a month and that's the rental range affordable apartments should start off. FDA Affordable Housing rural areas could be an option because they own their own utilities, homes, land for those who want to. Some people prefer renting. But California discontinued mortgage insurance so buying a home may not be worth it. Roofless people who came from other parts of the states that had disasters like Hurricane Katrina were transported to California and that added to the homeless population when those people got housed temporarily in shelters, motels or never permanently housed. LAHSA never discussed really how much money they paid people directly for utilities, rent, security deposits. There are people who were referred to vacant homes or under construction locations and were scammed. Los Angeles has a registry of vacant homes that roofless people should be able to occupy. Banks have closed permanently in California as well and many more to follow. Even President Trump has his own currency and his wife Melania we are in an era toy literally need your own money in the form of digital currency
