Default Economy 101

No, not a photo about life as a gangsta. This photo is more a tongue-in-cheek study of the United States economy. Criminals, whether street criminals, or the ones that wear 3-piece suits - seem to rake in the profits, while us law abiding citizens watch in poverty.

Lacking any connection to "Business"

Needs the Wall Street Journal or Forbes Magazine mixed in somehow.

Otherwise, it just looks "Gangsta"

Hmmm... I'm sure I can get my hands on a WSJ copy. I'll have to throw that in.

To me, it seems like this badass is high on drugs and wanting to take his own life with a gun over monetary issues.

ROFL... That's what I love about this type of photography. It can speak different things to different people. Your observation, though, is pretty awesome!
