And, How come other cities like Miami or New Orleans are not doing as well as us, despite their high undocumented population from west indies?

anti_pc_whiteman, you need to make a clarification about the alleged illegal in Tacoma Wa, he is being held and waiting for a hearing on immigration. He is not of Mexican descent but from Thailand. Things like this report make the uninformed assume it is all about Mexicans.

Strong economies attract economic refugees from weaker ones.
I also live in a region with a very strong economy, and it attracts people from all over the world. Not just legal and illegal immigrants from other countries, but many people migrating from other States of the Union, as well.
As long as the economy is strong enough, it can absorb economic refugees with minimal direct negative effects.
Ideally, within a single nation, an economically strong region would first absorb economic refugees from troubled regions of the same nation, then political refugees from foriegn ones, then legal immigrants and temporary foreign workers in whatever quantity it can handle. At no point should it accept illegal immigrants.
The problem we have in America is that legal immigration is not flexible enough to allow us to take as many legal immigrants as we could.

Well, the economy is going well, but fiscally is hurting due to poor infrastructure. California is running a massive debt to parlay these businesses and other people to enter their area. They are actually hurting the economy with such high prices and the issuing of unsecured credit by banks to illegal immigrants.

California's economy was already great and attracted the Illegal immigrants. It is not great due to the illegal immigrants, but due to hard working Americans.

If you are saying that the economy is great in CA, due to the ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS, you are WRONG! We are going bankrupt!!!!!!
What about all the extra taxes we pay? What about our schools and ERs? What about all the crap that Arnold wants to give to the illegals!
CA shells out about $11 BILLION each year for the illegals. That's $11 BILLION that is suppose to go to Californians, not Mexican citizens!
There is no such thing as an "undocumented Mexican immigrant." They are criminals for breaking our laws. Undocumented sounds like they only misplaced a piece of paper. THEY ARE CRIMINALS!
