Time Knows What’s Up

Taco Truck in East LATime gets on the bandwagon with a piece about LA County’s plan to kick taco trucks out. Apparently the purpose of government is to take sides in what County Supervisor Gloria Molina, the leader of the crackdown, admits is a “turf war.”

“There are so many other problems in this city. Gangs. Robberies. To focus on people trying to make a living selling tacos? It makes no sense,” says Olegario Hernandez, while gassing up his taco truck on East L.A.’s Whittier Blvd. Taco truck drivers say it takes time to set up and prepare the food, and that moving constantly would make doing business impossible.

    Can’t wait for my taco dinner tonight.
    I would like to see the trucks stay on the streets but also be an example to the communities by going ‘green’, buying local, maybe not organic — but recycle their oil for their fuel, etc
