In 1909 it may have taken several days to panhandle $2, provided you weren’t arrested almost immediately by the local constabulary. Now it seems one can far make more than that in a day without much fear of arrest, judging by the number of regulars who stand at the center traffic island at the lights and exits to shopping centers.
