Well the computer problems finally seem to be over so I thought I'd pop these up from my search for last weeks 52. There has been a lot in the local media about the homeless 'problem' and the mayor has been trying to move them out of the city completely in quite controversial methods. I went down to the homeless corridor, which is only 10 minutes walk from the top of Vegas strip. I spent around 30min or more chatting to these guys. The elder of the 2 was very eloquent and had a Masters in English Literature. It was quite a humbling experience to hear about their fight for survival and the manner they are treated by the local authorities. What was even more worrying was that there were a large amount of people that were dressed in nice clothes and had nice tents and camping equipment. Apparently all part of the growing number of people who have been forced out of their homes due to the current economic crisis with no option but to pitch a tent on the pavement at night and job hunt during the day.
