Sacrifice Area

If any part of this county were to be set apart for a complete trashing, to be used as a stopover for transients and money-seekers and computer-makers and corporate farming, California is the last place that should have been consigned to this ignominious end. 

But that is exactly what has happened.

This is the place, of all places in the country, except maybe NYC and Detroit and Pittsburgh, that has received the restless of the restless, the greediest of the greedy, the despoilers of the despoilers, the pro-trashers. 

Why do we use the most diverse, most biologically intricate and irreplaceable and one-off state in the whole Union as our garbage dump? Our #1 Sacrifice Area.
