Where before they mutely watched the processes. they are now contributing to it. They have read "the problem of street people living in the Square" as the "problem of street people living in the Square ruining business," and with such obvious myopia, it is inevitable that their solution to the problem has been to crack down on street people's means of livlihood in the Square: where they...
