This doesn't have all the answers, but it does contain information about illegals that you may be interested it.

Answer 1

California is not lost - yet. Our government needs to step up to the plate and enforce the laws we have - including the 14th amendment!

Lou Dobbs is having a program tonight that will address how our government is failing middle-class Americans..that has been my argument all along....all of these illegals are not hurting the rich or the poor nearly as badly as the middle-class - we are the ones losing our manufacturing jobs (when i worked I paid laborers $21.12 per hour & they were worth it), losing quality education for our children & grandchildren, losing affordable health care, losing our houses, getting killed, losing our way of life....just read the papers!

It is time for ALL middle-class Americans to DEMAND that the "elected class" represent the majority middle-class FIRST. You say can't be done....it MUST happen..WE MUST join together and make it happen!

Answer 2

Very interesting site thank you ,here are a few more very sobering facts to look at also.

Current Census Bureau data indicate that California's illegal immigrant population is costing the state's taxpayers more than $10 billion per year in 2004. This analysis looks specifically at the costs of education, medical care and incarceration, which are the major cost categories. Even without accounting for all of the other areas in which costs are being incurred by California's taxpayers, this study indicates that the burden is substantial — nearly $1,200 per native-headed household — and that the costs are rapidly increasing.
The figures for the next census will be staggering.
No to amnesty,Deportation not legalization of all illegals
Make your voice heard in
NOvember
Send a message to Washington that you are
not going to take this any more And if a
candidate of any party doesn't share
your views on stopping illegals then
vote him/her out of office.

Socorro the operative word here is
ILLEGAL
Why is that one English word so hard to grasp
for some people.Its not about legal
immigrants,its about the influx,invasion of
ILLEGAL
immigrants
And WHY should a LEGAL American
of any race have to move from any
state in his/her country because of the
illegal action of any one.
That's insane

Chickenge....Are you gong to pay back the money plus interest that the US paid to Mexico when they beat Mexico in war and then paid $ 15 million in cash plus assumed debts that Mexico had in the amount of another $ 3.250 million. I don't think you could afford it.Plus the improvements made would all have to be destroyed to give Mexico back the land,leave it barren the way it was when America defeated Mexico and then PAID for the land.
Read your real history not what you are being spoon fed by ignorant Marxist groups and dumb azz people.

Answer 3

If Californians keep on voting for hispanics that are more mexican and love Mexico and not the United States we are going to loose the state of California. This mexicans that are serving in the U.S. government are more worry about the illegals that are coming in to our country than the American citizen that voted for them. I think that if we don't stick together as "American" we are going to loose not only California but the U.S.A. Now in California for the fourth time this state senator, mexicano, is trying to have a driving license approve for the illegals so they could have a ID so they could vote and drive.I hope the governor does not approve this. I'am a American hispanic and I don't tolerate what is happening to our country. USA first.

Answer 5

California is not "lost" to anyone. Why is it that when a group of people arrives in a state and works hard and sets up a business they are somehow trying to invade YOUR country.

America is a land of IMMIGRANTS! Undocumented workers contribute to the economy in a significant way. Have you ever wondered how much you would have to pay for produce if these migrant workers didn't work for such low pay?

Immigration is what makes this country so great. It is people like you who try to make themseleves the elite of this country and pretend you care so much about it but in reality you are too lazy to do anything about it. Anti-immigrants rant and rant about changes but are too lazy to get out there and march.

That's why the law making undocumented people felons was never passed. Supporters of immigration actually did SOMETHING about it.

Answer 6

Funny you should ask...I was born and raised in Los Angeles and have had 45 years to see the city and state evolve. When my husband and I married five years ago, he moved from one of the Plains states to live with me. He loved it the first two or three years, but then slowly began to hate it. I was iniitally very defensive when he said anything negative about L. A., until he asked me one question: "If it weren't for the weather, who would live here?"

It difficult to explain to people who are not lifelong "Angelenos" what life in Los Angeles used to be like. Yes, we have the problems most major metroplitan cities do, but illegal immigration (regardless of nation of orgin) has crippled our city. It used to be a true melting pot, but has turned very much into "us" against "them." From my own perspective, I think the reasons are as follows: 1) Legal citizens resent the attitude of "we're here in large numbers so just deal with us." 2) The lack of regard for our laws and rules 3) Our emergency room system has collasped under the weight of illegals using emergency rooms for primary health care 4) The refusal to assimilate into society. This does not mean giving up one's culture, background and all the things that make one's heritage unique, it just means become a part of your adopted new home and intergrating yourself into society. The protests earlier this year angered a lot of residents and did nothing to foster support or understanding of their cause. It did, however, reveal how much easier it was to get around town with a million people and their cars elsewhere.

No, I'm not blaming illegals for all that ails California. I will say, however, that having a slave economy doesn't help anyone. Would I be willing to pay more money for goods and services if it meant that people could earn a decent, living wage? Yes. When we are able to earn decent wages, we buy homes, pay property taxes and have disposable income to either save or spend on additional. It's money flowing back into the community and economy. It means that people don't have to rely upon government to keep a roof over their heads and food in their mouths. If I had heard President Bush talk about immigrants doing jobs that Americans won't do, I was going to scream. What anyone wants is to be able to take care of their families and prepare for the future. I don't know anyone that is willing to live the substandard life that illegals live. Illegals are abused in that they get the lowest possible wages, if indeed they get paid; they pay exorbitant rent for houses and apartments that are barely habitable.

So, like a lot of Californians, I sold our over-valued home in Los Angeles and we moved to my husband's home state. We got twice the house, have a comparatively lower monthly mortgage and a big hunk of money in the bank. My husband has gotten a job, and for the first time in 20 years, I'm not working. His income is nowhere near what he was earning in L. A., but it doesn't have to be. When I do decide to go back to work, my income will be gravy.

I miss the "flavor" of my hometown. I miss the diversity, the museums, the entertainment, the state's natural beauty. What I don't miss is the traffic, the crime and waking up each morning feeling like I'm getting ready to compete. I don't miss trying to protect my Spanish-speaking clients from unscrupulous professionals that lie to our respective clients and only find their scruples when I correct them in Spanish.

I hate that our government is not enforcing existing immigration law and not punishing businesses that hire illegals. I hate that those who want to be legal citizens and are playing by the rules are being screwed. What I hate most of all is being branded as racist when for me this is about legal versus illegal and nothing more. I don't support anyone breaking any kind of law under any circumstances, period.

I'm sorry for the long reply, but this question really hits home for me. Have we lost California? Hell yes.

Answer 7

I don't believe that it is. Look at New York, the epicenter of immigration to this nation. It is culturally diverse and rich, the safest large city in the nation & by far the wealthiest. Could you imagine NYC being able to pull this off if it were depopulating like many other cities in this nation!

Answer 8

Don't worry. Illegals can't do anything that requires a social security number. They can only live and work. Hardly worth anyone's time.

Answer 9

After they have ruined it and it is one big slum area they will move to another state and so on and on and on

Answer 10

Don't fret, Texas has been saturated for years.
