Thread: CA: Illegal aliens at heart of woes

Illegal aliens at heart of woes
Article Launched: 10/15/2008 02:29:40 AM PDT


California is on the verge of bankruptcy. We have been living by credit card for years. Now the payments are past due.

I have an idea for how to balance the budget. California has valuable assets and multitudes of creative people who can and will prosper in this state when overregulation is drastically reduced and punitive taxes are rolled back.


But back to how to ease our debt quickly: 30 percent of our criminal prisoners are illegal aliens. Children of illegals born here are automatically citizens of the United States. We give free education, free health care, rent subsidies, aid to dependent children, food stamps and I'm sure you can think of more perks.


What do we get for our estimated $15 billion expenditure each year? Some people who work cheap and take jobs that a lot of Americans would do. They are working in construction, roofing, landscaping, food and housekeeping service.


If we need someone to pick lettuce, put prisoners and able-bodied welfare recipients in the fields. Send the illegal criminals back where they came from and build the fence. That will be the least costly. And that will balance the budget so we can deal with the growth of government and debit spending.

I saw in a CA paper where illegals cost CA 11 billion. Arnold wants 7 billion??? He stops jobs, rents, and licenses to illegals. Then through attrition, he will be ahead 4 billion, next .

The idea makes too much scene to implement.

I can't believe I am going to say this, but there are a lot of high school and college students out of work because illegals have taken jobs they were hoping for. College students (44%) in Florida are on food stamps. Is there no way to give extra credit to students that volunteer to go out and pick crops?
In the old Soviet Union, it was a requirement that school kids worked in the fields.
I really fear we have arrived at a point something like this. And as my former sociology professor used to say, the east will move closer to the west and the west will move closer to the east.

Good article Jean I like the idea of prisoners picking crops. Mississippi
still uses chain gangs I see no reason cal. could not do the same.They could put some of those hollywood elites out there too maybe it would straiten them out.




STAND TALL PATRIOTS!!

Idiots are running California. Instead of Obama talking about those hanging on to their faith and guns he should be talking about those politicians trying to hang on to their cheap labor which is putting states in to debt. I'm more concerned about these scumbags wasting our money at the tune of 11 billion a year, for one state, than I am about someone who believes in God and believes in their 2nd ammendment rights. If they aren't going to follow the constitution then why not just get rid of it, they don't adhere to it anyways and you'd think it was in another language they don't understand.

Thank you Rebelrouser although the author deserves the thanks.

I, and others, have wondered why prisoners aren't out doing much of the work illegals now do. It would help them pay back their debt to society too. Oh, but it probably doesn't make money for someone does it? As I once heard, if you ever wonder why something is the way it is just say to yourself 'follow the money.'

Didn't you know they are the "chosen ones" in California?

BTW, they DO have prisoners fighting fires? I see no reason why they couldn't do the same thing with our crops---except that it would slow down the Mexicanization of California--which I believe is close to complete.
