Europe's Extreme Poverty Problem | Poor Europe | Real Stories Full-Length Documentary

I left Europe in 2015, I could not manage financially anymore, I lost my job, nobody wants to employ and "old woman" and the bank was about the forclose my house, so I was about to become homeless. I reinvented myself, I'd rather be homeless in a warm country than in the cold winters of The Netherlands, I started an online business, left for S.E. Asia, where the cost of living is so low, you can easily give yourself a chance to get back on your feet. Now I am in Mexico, doing okay, but I never forget how everybody even friends and family but most of all the banks and government looked the other way when I asked for help.........the EU is a failure, but nobody dares to say it out loud, they hand out bandaids of billions of Euros and solve nothing and ont he other hand thousands of immigrants are welcomed each day.........because they believe poverty does not exist in Europe.

I wonder if people that experienced the 2008 crash had it easier because this market conditions are driving me to insanity, my portfolio has lost over $27000 this month. alone my profits are tanking and I'm don't see my retirement turning out well when I can't even grow my stagnant reserve.

Well, whenever this was made, I think it's safe to say things have only got a lot worse.....

Some economists have projected that both the U.S. and parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies. Essentially the world economy is considered to be in recession if economic growth falls behind population growth.

95 million EU citizens are living in poverty , and yet NGOs and politicians still want to allow unauthorised migrants in , this will lead to unrest across the EU

Disparity here in the USA is growing. Its ending the middle class.. And growing the wealthiest wealth and pushing middle class into poverty.

Corruption is the root cause of all problems.

Here's a question. Why is taxation so high in Italy? What is the government doing with the taxes?

I'm from Scotland and visited Naples for the first time, i couldn't believe the amount of homeless people, trash, graffiti and general poverty I witnessed. I felt like i was in a third world country! So many Africans asking and pressuring me for money...such a culture shock. It made me appreciate my home country a lot.

At the opening of the documentary you show an Irish lady. As an Irishman let me say this as I guarantee this documentary WILL NOT expose this. Here in Ireland we have 190,000 employed in our NGO sector (of 2.1m total employed nationwide), almost 100% of that sector being Left wing, majority female, and almost all of the same Progressive Left ideology. We have 10 times the number of NGO's per capita as Germany. 1 in every 12 euro in national revenue (€6bn pa) goes to this sector plus an additional income of €10bn pa from the private/corporate sector. So that is €16bn pa from a population of 5m people. And the situation with homelessness and therefore poverty has gotten worse. You know why. Those very same NGO's and their incestuous relationship with the government and EU. Because none of them are trying to solve the problem because if they did the billions of funding, the lavish lifestyles of their CEO's, the careers built on using the poors suffering for the benefit of the employees of these organisations would dry up. It has become an echo chamber pushing assistance only for certain identities (26 refuges for women, 0 for men. 80% of homeless are men. The 20% who are women being the priority). Meanwhile they all push open borders immigration into a nation with a huge housing crisis which not only significantly exacerbates the problem but also forces the native poor to compete even more with the new immigrant poor from non-EU nations. The rich get richer, the NGO's get rich being paid by the rich corporate donors while managing the suffering whole crying poverty themselves and getting ever more money the worse it gets. I see in this documentary no mention of mass immigration in Italy causing so many issues yet it is known to all across Europe this is a factor. In Ireland the only NGO who was tasked with questioning where all of the money was going, Benefact, was shut down in 2020 to prevent anyone finding out were the money was going and into whose pockets. And you know who has no problem with this, the EU, who support the echo chamber NGO's. Perhaps do a documentary into this and you will find out why poverty cannot be solved in Europe.

Yes, I've been on the back streets of Greece. The police try to block anyone taking photos of the poverty. Streets were just awful.

I was an emigrant in Ireland when the crash did come (the fall of the Keltic tiger was named), I had a Job that was cut down in hours, and my mortgage went up, Maintaining a car was difficult but I managed by "tighten my belt" as they said, the poverty in Ireland is for many different reasons but one is that during the high of the Keltic tiger, they forgot that were poor before and went into expenditure in madness, and they were not able to overcome the crisis after maybe 10 or 12 years of craziness, people went mad getting huge houses, cars, buying cloths like there was no tomorrow, no one did have a lunch from home, everyone was eating out every day, priorities were forgotten, the poverty that is saw was not for do not have money or help, it was only because priorities were different.

So very sad, and it is getting worse because food prices are so high. Here in Portugal the minimun wage is 760.00 euros, but you pay very high prices if you rent a house.

I am watching in 2023 Australia and poverty got much worse.

Why do Rich government leaders allow food and shelter prices to be out of people's reach. It happens in America, also.

why does this feel like a documentray from the 1980s

People in the US are leaving the country too. They can't afford housing or transportation, and food costs so much now. Wages lag behind price increases decade after decade and people are burdened with student loan debt, medical debt, and credit card debt. Many live in their cars and have regular jobs. If you can't afford to live in a country, you leave. It's really that simple.

Why is the whole world going through this now? Every country is struggling financially now. Crazy.

Well what fascinate me is the amount of Africans which work on tomato farms in Italy but the educated Italians are unemployed.

If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to build generational wealth and cultivate financial knowledge, you must be in the market…
