I know whenever I visit for work, we stay at the Ramada Inn. Located in Barstow. You cant walk anywhere without getting stopped at least 3 times for change. Upon entering buildings its the worst. I mean I will give you some change but what does that do? Nothing, you get tired of giving your change away eventually. A friend of mine gave a guy 20$. We seem him the next day, and he asked us for money again...seriously? Find a shelter, Get a job. Do something besides ask for change. Everyone of them has a different story as to why they need change also. One guy asked us if we had some change, then asked us to sell him a "blunt" of weed. Its like this everywhere.

Japan tries very hard to hide things like slums and homeless and therefore many people think they don't exist. Japan is a great place, but it does have problems like any other country. Great photos.

Awesome photos, Jess! I especially love the glamorous graffiti contrasted against the homeless person (first photo) and the emptiness of the photo and the man's eyes (last photo). :) Your photos remind us that so many people are suffering everywhere, and yet they are being ignored by their government– and no country is an exception.

In 1992 and 1993, it was very obvious in the corridors of Shinjuku: homeless had their cardboard houses one after another one. The government clean the area.
