If you want to know the real reason these all popped up in the lat few years was because of, again, democrat law makers. They forced carwashes to pay a minimum wage. This caused many car washes to close and forced the workers to pick a corner and do it illegally.

Look up the documentary on youtube, even the workers didn’t want a minimum wage because they made a killing on tips only. But hey, politicians knew better. Now look.

Because they are stealing water from fire hydrants and taking up multiple parking spots.

Ha, you guys are crazy

Now you're advocating not paying minimum wage

Everybody wants labor for cheap and not willing to pay

But want to complain that illegal car washes are being set up because the business owners were not paying them legal wages

Lol

Slavery is still well and alive, only it's economic now

Severe psychological damage going on
