It was over 110 today in Phoenix and I saw beggars on all 4 corners today at a few different intersections... You cant hardly stop at any convenience store without being asked for change any time of the day or night. One old guy I saw today was wobbling around, looking like he was going to pass out. In a short 5 mile trip over 20 of them out at intersections though... I thought the about same thing about the 3rd intersection, yeah it sure looks like our economy has recovered...

I live in a neighborhood wherein a 4 bdrm house rents for 2200.00. When we put out a tv, airconditioner, hot water heater etc for the garbage truck it disappears in a matter of hours (sometimes minutes). On recycle day, just about dawn, I noticed a local couple driving down the street, stopping at each recycle container, and picking thru the contents.
Things are changing in America. Once the middle class had enough going for it to leave such activities to the poor.
