    California crime again. Another theft ring broken up. This will cause some to want to relocate from California, namely those inclined to commit the crime, which isn’t prosecuted by many states that realize that the kind of people who steal wages aren’t “criminals”, and that the kind of “people” whose wages are stolen don’t deserve legal protection, probably last anyway.

    Another California negative. Protecting workers. Florida knows better.


    May 15, 2023 - LOS ANGELES – On Monday California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara and California Labor Commissioner Lilia Garcia-Brower, announced the resolution of criminal charges filed against Golden Food, Inc (GFI). A plea agreement was reached with GFI wherein the company admitted to a litany of labor violations, which includes over $437,000 in stolen wages to be paid back to more than 30 California workers.

    “Our economy depends on workers. Golden Food violated the law, risking the safety of their employees and failing to pay them for their hard work,” said Ricardo Lara, California Insurance Commissioner. “My office, the Labor Commissioner’s Office, the District Attorney’s Office and our law enforcement partners are committed to preventing fraud and abuse and securing justice for California's workers."


    California Insurance Commissioner and State Labor Commissioner Return Over $437,000 in Stolen Wages to Los Angeles Area Chicken Processing Workers.

    Seems like this stuff is antithetical to the idea of a "United" States, but what do I know, I think American federalism is very stupid as an idea
