Illegal food vendors in AZ causing lots of food poisonings

[T. A. Gardner]

Yep, and I can bet they're illegal in more ways than just selling food...

Anyway, California is overrun with illegal street food vendors selling everything including alcohol and has been for some years.

Now California's shitfest of illegal street food vendors is pouring into Arizona and lots of people are getting food poisoning.

It's not just the Phoenix metro area either. Pima County and Tucson, Coconino County and Flagstaff, all report similar large numbers of illegal street food vendors.

Those surprised by the speed of Americas decline should not be, this is how it works, as they would know had they bothered to get educated.

Plus there have been people like me on the alarms.

Buckle Up.

There are things government can and should do. This is one of them. Protecting public health at such a basic level is important. My biggest issue with this is that it is almost certainly people here illegally in the US doing it. They have nothing to lose and everything to gain from running an illegal food vending business. Legal citizens face penalties from law enforcement and government for doing so. The illegal can just flee the country if it comes to that taking their ill-gotten gains with them.

Aren't Republicans for deregulation? They claim that food does not need to be so regulated... Well it turns out they are wrong, again.
