Solution
The heavy tax imposed on Chinese miners by the California state legislature in 1852 had a significant impact on them. Most of them left mining but turned to other work such as fishing and operating restaurants. While some of them returned to their home provinces in China, a number of these miners continued to work in their current jobs. The tax was not overturned by the California judiciary for its racist principles, so it did have an effect on them.
