They should put the year the videos were produced

When you’re half way through a documentary and you realize it’s 15 years old 😂

"That's why they call it the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it." -George Carlin

The fact that we get free documentaries from Best Documentary on YouTube is priceless; keeping the education and knowledge alive. 👍👍👍

California is blessed with having the combination of the best geographic location, weather, and resources on the planet yet it's still somehow ruined by the people who inhabit it.
-
Not just Cali! It's EVERYWHERE!! 🤬🇺🇲
-
Am i right in thinking this is an old documentary? Things were bad then but a WHOLE lot worse now.
-
California is too expensive. Moving out is the best decision ever.
-
Man this didn't age well. Californians would give anything to have the state they had during Arnold's term.

I lived in Hollywood for a few years after my parents abandoned me, I tried being homeless and an actor at the same time... While I did end up in a couple movies, I hardly ever made money off it and eventually gave up.

Growing up here in the UK in the 80s and being a skateboarder , California was like a dream to me . Oh how wrong I was .

My uncle once told me the American Dream is that bit of panic when you wake up in the middle of driving from your morning job to your night job.
-
Best thing i did was get out 7 years ago, the writing was on the wall. Good look to all .

The parallels between Cali and the whole of North America are clear. The system, the STATE, is the issue. It was never designed to give us the “American dream.” Our struggles are all interconnected

💯 the California in this documentary in 2009, was infinitely better in almost every aspect than it is today. Crime has risen by multiple factors, homelessness has exploded, the corrupt politicians making policy in the state have put the state in a position and deficit hundreds of percentage points greater than it was during the financial crisis of 2009.

The American dream died decades ago.
-
Hoping to have left California within the next 3 years!! It's become too expensive to live here.
-
State coffers are empty?? Ask Gavin Newsom and Nancy Pelosi. Put them on the streets for a week, 🤔..
-
This video was uploaded 3 days ago and the clips they are showing us are from 2009? 20:58

Hell 60 years ago, everyplace in the US was the American Dream. Now, it's California/Hawaii prices everywhere (the cheapest place I've lived, in my experience, is Hawaii where I grew up) and it's not the fault of any particular "Nation-State" like California, it's that there are a LOT more people now.
