What can really help LA avoid unemployment is that so much of its workforce consists of immigrants. If jobs are reduced, they will presumably stop coming and are more likely to move away.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

LA is already overcrowded, so that sounds like a win/win.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

The other way around Timmy.  Minimum wage adjusted for COL.

Nice to see my Austin money goes farther.
