OVER BY THE BRIDGE

Posted by DAVE ID (Montreal, Canada) on 9 April 2008 in Lifestyle & Culture.

More insane views of poverty just a hop and askip away from the 4 star hotel I was staying at during my work-trip. I was living in luxury eating Sundried Tomatoe rubbed lamb with breaded eggplant and purple potatoes while 200 feet away someone is living under a bridge in a trailer and eating the fish from that river. Shreveport is this rich gambling town and there is this perverse level of poverty still.
