People playing the real estate market want people to get shot no matter where they live, whether they were from South Central LA before they got into real estate, or from a small town out in the country, or somewhere in between. It's all cheaper land and dollar signs in their eyes.
Gentrification is the same thing no matter where it takes place. The guy/girl asking for 5 dollars or a cigarette usually already has his/her own money to buy this shit with, he/she just wants to charge somebody else for it. It's rare to meet somebody who doesnt ask for anything, and doesnt get on TV or ask for a donation for help, it's rare because when somebody doesnt ask for anything, they dont get noticed.
