The era of CORPORATE WELFARE is well and alive. I am going to jump onboard.

Yamaha Corp. of America, the Buena Park subsidiary of the giant Japanese musical instrument and audiovisual equipment maker, agreed to remain in California, rather than move to Texas or Tennessee, after the state granted it a $3 million tax break last month.

You mean the vendors that cook and sell food from a shopping cart. (Don't get me wrong not all do, but man they need to crack down for health safety)

peppy said:LOL, you guys must not travel much (or maybe only to Tijuana). In many large cities in the US (9 out of 10 of the largest allow it - guess which one doesn't) and all over the developed world there are legal street vendors.

Key word is legal
morekaos said:In the context of this thread, legal or not, replacing Jacobs Engineering jobs with legal street vendors is not a very even steven trade...no?
morekaos said:It is an extreme comparison used to make a point. The ratio of quality jobs created (in Elisium) vs. the jobs we are discussing here (in LA) is growing further and further apart as companies flee the state for friendlier states and we are left with cheap fruit salad on every corner. Not a good trade off.
morekaos said:Not when our politicians prioritze legalizing street vendors over trying to keep Fortune 500 companies from fleeing our state. The trend is not our friend on this one.
