Washington, DC in the Suki Series

Interesting picture forwarded by one of my military fact-checkers. A stripped bicycle, vicinity 12th & N, NW:

I was passing I & 7th and met this nice young lady distributing Street Sense "Where the poor and homeless earn and give their two cents." It began in 2003 and it is certainly and contains some interesting stories. If you see these folks, give a donation and take a look at their paper.

Zoom in on the green sign on the corner. This is where all that Stimulus Money went!

All this only generally relates to the 2030s environment of the Suki series.  Some feedback I have gotten about how I depict DC is that nobody there has any manners in the 2030s.  I am here to tell you, they are generally short on manners now and I don't see it changing for the better in the future.  In Suki I some of the overly regulated nature is mentioned. It may be mentioned in the first three books in that series.  I may have give the impression that DC and MD are impoverished, which was not my thought at all. What I was trying to bring out is if people live in a nanny state it does not matter what their income, they have a a tendency to behave badly when not under the watch of the authorities and sometimes right in front of the police.
