My city has bullshit laws like this that are created solely to continue the monopolies held by gangsters and goons who pay politicians for their support.

In my city a food truck can't park within view or 100ft of a restaurant. The reasoning was that the food trucks would hurt restaurants. But if the restaurant can't compete with the food truck food that's on them, and it sucks us all over who want a bite but don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a sit down meal

Doesn't that mean literally no food trucks along Main Street or wherever all the shops are?
