✖Living Condition'

Today is the second day of second week since I have been here.

I am walking around the town, looking at people are rushing down the streets. My target is the area where immigrants are living, to see their living conditions during this time, the 1800s.

I feel like I am a stranger here. Almost everything are different. I hardly see a car. There are no Cub food, Rainbow, or Walmart. Even what I am now wearing are so different that I do not comfortable. (Many people looked at me when I walked through.)

Here I am on cramped street where are so many small houses. The streets are overcrowded. I see those children are playing outside with their bare feet.

I decided to come in this small house, which is on the last corner of cramped street. I asked an old man at the front door for seeing their house. Lucky me. they allowed me.

At first glance, I can tell that I would not be happy if I had to live in the house like this.
That does not mean I want to live in a very big house. But this is too bad. Listen to me.

There are just two small rooms in this house, no bathroom, kitchen, living room or anything.
There is no even indoor water supply.

''There are 4 families in this house.'' a man said.
''How many people in total?'' I asked.
''17'' He answered.

'What? that shocked me so much. How they all can live in this small house'
I am thinking to myself.

They told me that many people caught diseases from the filth left outside the streets. even worse, children played in the filth with bare feet. this spread lots of disease.
Children would go to work when they were young, probably leaving school at about twelve years old, or even younger. There is no time to hang out with friends like children in 21st century.

It is bad living conditions, nobody should be treated like that. They deserve better than they recieved. They work so hard, and they have to live in the unhealthy place.

I am still on this cramped street. Some families live in apartment which is not good living conditions either. Watching them live like this makes me feel bad. Even if they work pretty hard, living in the place like this. But they never give up.

Why many people today in the modern era give up so easily?
