Listen "Episode 127 – Gate Keepers of Survival – Special Guest, Karen"
Episode Synopsis
Please join us this week for a very special episode. Todays guest is Karen, a Clinical Therapist in the state of California working in the Youth Hospitalization Intervention Program. This episode is exposing the dark underbelly of government assistance programs and how it all effects real lives in real time...
Welcome back to Outspoken, the only show where we call it like it is, and if you get offended well, maybe that’s a ‘you’ problem. Today, we’re talking about something that affects literally millions of Americans… but no one wants to admit how flawed it really is. Welfare, Food stamps, Medicaid, Housing. All that stuff we’re told is ‘fairly’ given out. But… is it?
Because here’s the deal: These programs are run by states, not D.C. And the people approving or denying you that help? They’re just that: people. With their own political views, biases, and maybe even an ax to grind.
So let’s ask the real question: How do we know these gatekeepers are being fair? Are the right people getting help or, just the ones who know how to play the system?
This isn’t just about assistance, it’s about access, and who gets to survive. And around here? We stay Outspoken enough to say it.
