Thank you for this article. People should open their eyes and at least read stuff like this to check with their self constructed reality.
Seems some of them live in a dome where you can't see all of this development. Nice for them - I could cry sometimes because it's so unfair.

It's like a diffuse favela, and most people don't care and a number of people actively hate people, and express violence, for them being poor. This is the result of Nixon and Reagan defunding JFK's community-based mental healthcare centers because they couldn't, or didn't want to, relate to people in different circumstances.

Only after he was lobbied with evidence based upon lies did he relent.
