According to the proponents, legalizing street vendors is not about economics, the urgency is fear of Trump. They need to decriminalize street vending quickly before Trump takes office where a misdemeanor conviction for street vending could lead to deportation.morekaos said:And as much as I admire the entrepreneurial spirit of these people I question the quality and quantity of their small business' ability to contribute overall to the Cali economic powerhouse.

LOL. That's not even what it means.

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.
I do...at least try to keep them here. Baby steps.

Pennsylvania is the leading contender for the new 30,000 to 50,000 employee Foxconn plant to make Apple products in the US. So far, all of the jobs Trump has brought back from overseas has gone to states like Michigan and Pennsylvania, traditionally Democratic states that HRC assumed was hers but instead switched sides and went Trump in 2016. Reward perhaps? My guess is that the companies heeding Trump's call to bring jobs back won't be providing those jobs in rainbow land California, New York, and Illinois.

Jerry Brown delivers anti-Trump manifesto
In his State of the State speech, the California governor issues a scathing rebuke of the new president.
SACRAMENTO ? The governor of the nation?s largest state delivered a pugilistic rebuke of Donald Trump on Tuesday during his State of the State address, presaging years of bitter conflict between Washington and the state that rejected him by a landslide margin.
In promising to confront Trump on issues ranging from immigration to health care and the environment, Gov. Jerry Brown further entrenched California as an outpost of resistance, setting the tone for four years of politics in this heavily Democratic state.
?This morning, it?s hard for me to keep my thoughts just on California,? Brown said. ?We?ve seen the bald assertion of ?alternative facts,? whatever those are. We?ve heard the blatant attacks on science. Familiar signposts of our democracy ? truth, civility, working together ? have been obscured or even swept aside.?
For a fourth-term governor who long ago abandoned his own presidential ambition, Brown?s defiant speech signaled an eagerness to collide with Trump on a national stage, casting California as ?beacon of hope to the rest of the world.?
