2. I was about to start a thread on this,
and did a search and found this thread. Too bad it sank like a stone cause whenever Lisa Ling is on, the show becomes excellent. This one was amazing, very well done. Middle class people living in tents on the outskirts of a city, walking three miles to get some drinking water. Another older couple that had to live in their office and took showers at the local gym. This is really what most of us are afraid of right now, and it showed people for whom that fear became a reality.

Hope I don't miss it.
