BATTLE FOR WORLD / BE | April 28, 2019: The video footage from the HBO documentary film "San Francisco 2.0" by Alexandra Pelosi. In this highlight, a former banker in San Francisco, named Alan, confronts the new reality that appears to becoming the norm in the United States.

Alan gives a little history in the video...61 years old, has two college degrees, thirty years experience working in the corporate world and nobody wants someone like him. I don't live in your world anymore, things are completely different [now]. What you take for granted doesn't exist in my world anymore. I think we are rapidly becoming something like Venezuela, where there's a very small ultra-rich-class and everybody else is poor and the middle-class is shrinking. I think the American dream is a load of crap. There is no American dream. It's a nightmare for most people.

The narrator says: ...Still, as innovation moves in, with it comes a new generation of homeless. Those who have been pushed out of San Francisco 2.0. Fierce is the dark-side of progress.
