35 Counties Account For Majority of Home Foreclosures in the United States: Could Illegal Immigration and High Taxes be Partially to Blame?



A report out from USA Today shows that 35 counties across the United States account for more than half of the nations foreclosures last year. Interestingly enough, many of the states in which the foreclosures happened have major issues with illegal immigration. California, Arizona, and Florida have the contain most of these 35 counties, and each one of these states are losing their battles with illegal immigration. Although, many illegals have been able to borrow money from American banks, I am not alluding that a majority of foreclosed homes were purchased by illegals.




I do think it's safe to say that where illegal immigration is one of the primary issues in that region, it appears illegals are helping drain the economy, force down wages, taking jobs from American citizens, increase that taxes to care for and fight illegal immigration, and may be a factor in people losing their homes.




Once again, we see the rest of the nation is responsible for bailing California, one of the most liberal states, out of trouble. Liberal attitudes towards immigration, environmentalism, taxes, and lifestyles continue to place California closer to the brink of bankruptcy. Illegal immigration hurts the California job market, and when you mix that with the number of companies that are leaving California to escape the taxes, it's no wonder the map is covered in dark blue. Florida doesn't have state income tax, but they have a large illegal immigration problem from Cuba and Haiti.
