No, fakers are the minority, not a majority.
Overall a minority, but maybe there's a lot of fakers concentrated in this one area. The young ones have a bit of a punk look about them (odd hair styles and clothing) and they have an overly sarcastic demeanor. Not at all like the plain looking middle aged bums I'm used to seeing. Maybe they're actors and this is their way to get experience in acting?
