Gutfeld: This is a criminal enterprise

>> Jessica: HE WAS SAYING THAT THAT'S CHICK MUSIC. EVERYONE LOVES TAYLOR SWIFT. OUR CITIES SPOILING THE HOMELESS? AN UNSHELTERED WOMAN IN SAN DIEGO MAKING A SHOCKING AND BLUNT ADMISSION ABOUT WHAT LIFE IS LIKE ON THE STREETS. >> TO BE HERE IN SAN DIEGO WAS NOT THAT HARD. USUALLY WE ARE LOW INCOME. WHEN YOU ARE LOW INCOME, YOU GET FREE PHONES, FREE FOOD, FREE CLOTHING. >> I THINK WE ARE SPOILED, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. >> Jessica: THERE'S BEEN AN ALARMING SURGE IN SAN DIEGO'S HOMELESS POPULATION. MORE THAN 2,000 PEOPLE ARE LIVING ON THE STREETS INTENSE AND ENCAMPMENTS AND IT'S GOTTEN SO BAD THAT THE CITY COUNCIL BANNED HOMELESS AND CABINETS IN PUBLIC PLACES. THEY NOW. >> Dana: HOW GENEROUS OF THEM. PETER AND I LIVED IN SAN DIEGO FOR THREE YEARS. WE LOVE OUR TIME THERE AND WE HAVE GOOD FRIENDS THERE BUT I'M GLAD WE LEFT. THE TAXPAYERS HAVE A TERRIBLE RETURN ON INVESTMENT. I WONDER COME IN THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE, TALKING ABOUT THE LIFE LIBERTY AND PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. WHAT HAPPENS TO TAX PAYING CITIZENS IN OUR PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS QUESTION WHAT I HAD A SITUATION TO MAKE IT ALL I WAS DOING WAS WALKING TO WORK. THIS GUY TRIES TO RUN ME OFF THE SIDEWALK YELLING NO, NO, NO. I JUMPED OUT OF THE WAY. HAD TO JUMP INTO THE STREET WHERE THE CRAZY BIKERS ARE. I THOUGHT AFTER THE DANIEL PENNY SITUATION WHEN HE WAS INDICTED FOR MANSLAUGHTER. WHO'S GOING TO HELP ME? NEW YORKERS ARE AWESOME AND THERE WERE PROBABLY SOMEONE WHO WOULD DO THAT BUT THE INCENTIVE TO HELP OTHERS, TO PROTECT ONE ANOTHER FROM THESE PEOPLE. AUTHORITIES KNOW WHO THEY ARE. THEY ARE THROWING SO MUCH MONEY AT THE PROBLEM. THE MONEY THAT de BLASIO GAVE TO HIS WIFE THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HELP SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THERE WAS AN AUDIT DONE. $850 MILLION WENT MISSING. NOBODY HAS ANY IDEA WHERE IT WENT. A LOT OF THESE HOMELESS SERVICES THAT ARE GETTING A LOT OF MONEY, MORE AND MORE MONEY. IT'S NOT WORKING. THE SOLUTION IS IN LISTENING TO THE HOMELESS LIKE THE WOMAN HE SAYS WE ARE SPOILED. WE NEED TOUGH LOVE. OR WE ARE NEVER GOING TO GET OFF THE STREET. >> Jessica: GREG, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT APPROACH? >> Greg: I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING THE LITTLE LADY SAYS MY SORRY ABOUT THE CART. THERE IS THIS ASSUMPTION OF THE PART OF THE FEELERS. LIKE JESSICA AND JESSE'S MOTHER. THAT THE UNFEELERS, ME AND JESSE, WE DON'T CONSIDER THE EMPATHETIC STANCE. THAT'S THE FIRST RUNG OF THE LATTER. WE ARE ON THE FIFTH OR SIXTH ROOM OF THE LATTER. WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THE UP OF THE PART WHERE WE ARE IN A DIFFERENT STAGE. WE WANT EVERYBODY ELSE TO JOIN US. IT'S BEEN AN UPHILL BATTLE DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE. IT'S BECAUSE THE EMPATHY CLASS HAS MADE THE HOMELESS A PROTECTED CLASS. IF YOU DESIGNATE AN OFFENDER, WHETHER IT'S A CRIMINAL OR DRUG ADDICT OR HOMELESS PERSON AS A MEMBER OF THE PROTECTED CLASS, IF YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT IT, PEOPLE WILL PAY YOU AS HEARTLESS. THEY WILL SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT YOU. YOU DON'T WANT BAD THINGS SAID ABOUT YOU SO YOU NEVER SEEN ANYTHING ABOUT IT. JESSE, YOUR MOTHER MADE THIS OBSERVATION. YOU SAID HOMELESSNESS WAS OUR CHOICE. SHE SAID DON'T BE CRUEL. WHAT'S THE BIG PICTURE? WHAT'S CAUSING THIS? HOMELESSNESS IS NOT BASED ON THE LACK OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THAT WOULD BE LIKE SAYING ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS BASED ON A LACK OF PLACES TO LIVE. THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT IS. IT'S WHERE YOU PREFER TO GO. THE MEDIA CHERRY-PICK STORIES OF THE HOMELESS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE IT'S FAMILIES AND VETERANS. THAT MIGHT BE A TINY PART OF THE PROBLEM. WE CAN SOLVE IT INSTANTLY. PEOPLE WHO SETTLE INTO THE LIFE BECAUSE IT'S NOT THAT BAD. HOBOS ON HEROIN? YOU DON'T PAY ANY BILLS. YOU'VE GOT NO MORTGAGE. YOU GET FREE STUFF. I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT. BUT I LIKE CLEAN BATHROOMS. >> Jessica: IS A FEELING PERSON. MAYBE THE ONLY ONE AT THE TABLE. I DID NOT LIKE WHAT YOU JUST SAID. EMILY. >> Greg: JESSE'S TEXTS FROM HIS MOTHER. A >> Jessica: THERE'S A WOMAN NAMED MARY MUNRO WHO RUNS A HOMELESS VETERANS ORGANIZATION IN SAN DIEGO WHO WENT OUT TO TALK TO THE COMMUNITY AND SHE HAS PUT FORWARD A PLAN TO DEAL WITH THIS WHICH I THOUGHT SEEM SO SMART. TO DESIGNATE PEOPLE BY WHY THEY ARE HOMELESS, START WITH THE PEOPLE THAT ARE THE EASIEST TO GET OFF THE STREET. PEOPLE OF FALLEN ON FINANCIAL HARD TIMES, MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, DRUG ISSUES. WHAT ABOUT PLANS LIKE THAT? >> Emily: DATA ANALYTICS WOULD BE FANTASTIC. IMPORTANTLY THERE'S A DEARTH OF IT. COMPASSION CAN BE CRUEL. THAT'S WHAT WE ARE SEEING. THAT'S WE ARE SEEING HERE. THE AMOUNT OF INVESTMENT, THE $200 BILLION IN SAN DIEGO. $1 BILLION IN SEATTLE OVER THE LAST TEN YEARS. THEY RECENTLY PROPOSED A $12 BILLION BUDGET. SEATTLE PUBLIC SCHOOLS GETS 1.14 BILLION. THAT'S THE PRIORITY. EVERYONE HAS THESE COMPETING COMPASSIONATE APPROACHES. IT'S GOING TO BE THE MOST HELPFUL, AND THE KINDEST, THE KID GLOVES. IF YOU RAISE A CHILD LIKE THAT WITHOUT BOUNDARIES, ANY FIRMNESS, OF COURSE THEY WILL EXACERBATE THE PROBLEM. WE ARE SKYROCKETING OUR TAXPAYER DOLLARS. THE APPROACH IS NOT WORKING. IN SEATTLE, HOMEOWNERS ERECTING REALLY EXPENSIVE FENCES TO HAVE SOME BOUNDARY NEXT TO THE ENCAMPMENT. THEY ARE PAYING TAXES TWICE. WHY ARE WE PAYING TAXES? THEY HAVE ABDICATED THEIR DUTY 100% TO PROTECT CITIZENS AND PROPERTY VALUES. THEY ARE PRIORITIZING HOMELESS. >> Jessica: JESSE, MAKE YOUR MOM PROUD. >> Jesse: THAT'S NOT HAPPENING. YOU HAVE TO ASK A LIBERAL GROUP HAPPEN TO HAVE ONE HERE. IS YOUR GOAL TO REDUCE HOMELESSNESS OR IS YOUR GOAL TO SPEND MONEY ON HOMELESSNESS. YOUR SPENDING MONEY ON HOMELESSNESS AND YOU'RE NOT REDUCING IT. WE CAN FEEL. YOU CAN FEEL. WE HAD A METAL FOR FEELING. GREG'S RIGHT. WE CAN FEEL BAD AND WE CAN STUDY THE PROBLEM. CAN UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM AND WE CAN TAKE ACTION. YOU'RE NOT TAKING ANY ACTION, YOU'RE SUBSIDIZING HOMELESSNESS AND HOMELESSNESS IS INCREASING. WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENS WHEN YOU LET PEOPLE SLEEP ON THE STREET? IN TENTS THAT COST $300 FROM REI. TO GIVE THEM DRUGS THROUGH YOU DON'T CRIMINALIZE ANYTHING THEY DO. YOU'RE GOING TO ENCOURAGE MORE HOMELESSNESS. PORTLAND SPENT 50 MILLION TO BUILD THE HOMELESS A VILLAGE. IT COST ABOUT 500,000 TO BUILD A VILLAGE. THEY STOLE $49 MILLION. THEY ARE STEALING THE MONEY, CALLING THEMSELVES COMPASSIONATE, INCREASING HOMELESSNESS. IT'S A SCAM. YOU KNOW IT. I KNOW IT. EVEN MY MOTHER KNOWS IT. >> Greg: IT'S AMAZING. THIS HOMELESS ACTIVISM THING IS A CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE. >> Jesse: NONPROFITS ARE
