If you don't want a taco truck going down your street, vote for the
democrats. They are the ones who would regulate that guy off the
street.
You can bet your ass code enforcement would run any kind of food truck
off the street Hillary lives on in Chappaqua.
OTOH I bet there is a 3d worlder running a hot dog stand in front of
Trump tower.
Gary would make it easier for a Mexican immigrant to set up a taco
truck.

No, you don't get it, The latino Trump supporter was claiming that his
Mexican culture was dominant and that it would take over up here and as
a result, we would have a taco truck on every corner. The taco truck
reference was not literal but figurative. We snarky dems saw his claim
as something at which to giggle, though for the foodies among us, more
taco trucks might be something we'd like. I don't believe the
Libertarian concept of more unlicensed food vendors is part of it.

You still don't get it. The libertarian view is not that these things
are totally unregulated, just that the regulation is not so oppressive
as to shut out competition.

As for the "Taco Truck" reference, it is just silly. The illegal is
already there, cutting the grass.

Oh, your assumption is that if Mexicans are working here, they are
illegals. Right, I get it. I'll be sure to share that with the Mexican
landscaper whose services I use several times a year, along with his
sons and sons-in-law, all legal, and with my Mexican friends who own and
operate a chain of Mexican restaurants, where all the owners and
employees are legal.

As for the "libertarian view," get back to me when the libertarians win
some federal elections. Until that happens and in significant numbers,
the libertarian view has no more clout than the Rosicrucian view.
