Can you help me find my swagger?

leave burrito guy alone!

Sigh . . .

I live in the wrong country. Sacramento City Council, having triumphantly solved all of the other problems in our fair city, is now going to go after mobile street vendors.

While, of course, some of the food proffered at these "roach coaches" is downright awful. But some of the best food I've ever had was gotten from some guy cooking on the side of the road. The best burrito in Sacramento can be gotten from that one guy on I Street.

Street vendors are often inexpensive and delicious. Cutting them a break can offer residents plenty cheap tastiness. You can even encourage them, like Singapore does (yes, that's the only time I'll say those three words).

Hopefully the city council will spend their time on more obvious ways to improve the quality of life for its constituents.
