Sad to see there are Hoovervilles in 2008. But nice to see that when ppl are done they come together and make a home.

Wow, these are insane. I didn't know places like this existed, I only thought they happened after natural disasters and stuff. It's sad to see, but also nice to see that people have a place to call home eventhough it isn't much.

I totally expected something like this to happen especially after viewing the video of the company that cleans out homes after they have been abandoned.

It is sad to see history repeating itself. I agree it is good that people come together to help each other out.

I never thought to see this recently. Sometimes we think that the new generations would not pass for the same hardships than the older generation passed, but sadly we do.

These pictures make me ask, what has really changed from the 1930s and now? This makes me put things in perspective.
