Welcome Meltin,

Illegal vendors...GGRRRrrrrrrrr

How'd we get here? I'd say it was the agribusiness that had the biggest impact at the earliest point. Growers needing cheap labor. Next it was the government handing out money to them via food stamps, WIC, Welfare and so on. Then began the chain migration. After that it was the construction and service industries that were also willing to hire anyone that would work for peanuts and supplement it with government handouts. And finally came the race hustlers....churches, la raza groups, and so on, who set in motion an underground railroad of sorts to keep them coming.
But getting back to the agribusiness, there is a giant disc on the steps of the state capitol that shows the progression in a form of art. It pretty much makes the statement about what the agribusinesses plan for California was/is.
