follow up on an earlier post

just a little follow up on March 28's post. I thought when I took the pic that the subjects of the photo shoot looked suspiciously 'down and out'... and, well, they had that long-term alcoholic look about them- bleary-eyed, puffy eyes, puffy face, shuffling walk... they just didn't look good. At all. (For one thing, the guy in blue was using that rake to help himself stay upright.)
About a week later I ran across an article detailing how the mayor had gone out and rounded up homeless people and pressed them into 1-off service cleaning up the city. I'm pretty sure my 2 were part of that brigade.

I wonder if they got paid? I wonder what they did with the $$? I wonder if this is ethical.
