You know you are in the ghetto when a domestic drone is flying overhead, the Chinese have hacked into the cloud and your credit card numbers and medical records are in China, the IRS refuses to grant your organization tax exempt status because of your political beliefs, you can't use your cellphone because the NSA has been assigned to monitor your telephone calls, all of your records have been changed so that it looks like you have not been paying your bills and your water service, electricity, sewer service, and natural gas service have been discontinued, your girlfriend was informed by Men in Black that you are a worthless jerk and she has left you, the post office refuses to deliver your mail, and the Feds are going to deport you to Mexico and you don't speak Spanish (you were born in the USA and your ancestors have lived here three generations).
