"What century is this?
Is it the 21st century in the largest city of a state that ranks among
the world’s most robust economies, or did someone turn back the calendar
a few hundred years?
We’ve got thousands of people huddled on the streets, many of them
withering away with physical and mental disease. Sidewalks have
disappeared, hidden by tents and the kinds of makeshift shanties you see
in Third World places. Typhoid and typhus are in the news, and an army
of rodents is on the move."
Via Paul Ferguson.
