So yes, I would call that widespread. Poverty in rural areas is widespread, moreso than in urban areas.
What do we mean by poverty? There are poor people everywhere, but this video is showing something else. Most people considered to be living in poverty are not in a tent on the street.
You're asking me to show you a tall skyscraper in a rural area. They basically don't exist (or at least rarely). Similarly, large congregations of people - rich, poor, homed or homeless - basically don't exist (or at least rarely) in rural areas. It's the nature of rural areas to not have skyscrapers, just as it is the nature of rural areas to not have large congregations of people. If they had large congregations of people, they wouldn't be rural! Since you don't find large congregations of people in rural/conservative areas, you're unlikely to find large congregations of homeless people in rural areas.
That said, just because they don't congregate doesn't mean they don't exist in large numbers.
Oh cool, another pointless thread bashing California and making baseless claims about "liberals." What are you so insecure about, OP?
Not afraid of anything.....
In fact, when the big one hits and half of California floats off into the Pacific, I'll stand at the east side of the San Andreas fault and wave goodbye.
High Taxes. High Housing Costs. High Regulation. High UN-Employment and High Amounts Of Illegals = What you see in this video.
Please view the video below. This is dream liberals want for our country. They want you to feed off the government and be broke/homeless, or they want to Tax you death.
This video is only one year old. I can only imagine what it looks like now.
2014????? LOL , where have you been? California is projected to lose over 400k jobs once your 15 an hour wages kick in.
California has also lost over 5 million residents in the past decade.. It has one trillion in un-funded pensions... Its bleeding out .. Lets not fool ourselves. The numbers don't lie.
So, by becoming a sanctuary state the idea was not to increase this problem, but to make it better? Please explain why California thinks this is a good idea to let more illegal immigrants, because I think this is where the OP is going with this. Letting in more undocumented people increases this problem doesn't it?
Not by much.
If undocumented people is the cause for all that poverty in Cali as you believe.....then what's the reason for all the poverty in rural red states?
See what I mean by cherry picking? In a state with nearly 40 million, you got just about 115k homeless. That's peanuts.
Cali has the largest economy in the country. Let's also not forget that red states take the most in fed dollars....that usually come from blue states.
If you believe that THAT is what liberals want for the country, then I have a bridge to sell you. Again, I can, as can so many others, show all the bad in red states, and pose the same statement.....that's what conservatives want for the country.
Mississippi, West Virginia and Arkansas are some of the poorest states in the country. Is that what conservatives want for the country?
Mississippi, Texas and Arkansas have some of the highest teen pregnancy rates. Is that what conservatives want for the country?
Mississippi, West Virginia, Arkansas, and Kentucky have some of the most least educated in the country. Is that what conservatives want for the country?

"Only three states were more dependent on the federal government than Alabama: Kentucky (first); Mississippi (second); and New Mexico (third.) Alabama comes in fourth, followed by West Virginia (fifth); South Carolina (sixth); Montana (seventh); Tennessee (eighth); Maine (ninth); and Indiana (10th)."
