"According to Jack Kyser, an economist with the Los Angeles Economic Development Corp., the economic impact of the one-day boycott could total up to $200 million just in Los Angeles County. That amount is estimated to be one-sixth of the $1.2 billion generated daily by the county’s economic activity."

I don&#39;t doubt those figures at all. The strike was definitely devastating as it was originally intended to be. So much for those who want to get rid of all immigrants. <_<
