California’s growing third world population

If you visit northern California, you might think everything works well. But as soon as you reach San Francisco and travel south, you understand nothing can end up ‘well’ in a state morphing into third world slums.

What defines the ‘third world’? In a word: illiteracy! Once entrenched, you cannot and will not solve it, change it or rearrange it. It grows like barnacles on a whale’s belly, like slums in a city, like the AIDS virus.

On the Mexican border, the poorest of the poor cross the Rio Grande and set up Colonias known as ‘new neighborhoods’ in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The New York Times reported on them, “The Third World forms on America’s southern border.” They found in 1985 an estimated 500,000 Mexicans living in cardboard shacks, trailers, no water, no electricity, no roads, no sewage. In 1995, the numbers hit 1 million. The NYT estimated at the current growth, colonias would reach 20 million within 30 years.

It means a gargantuan predicament for our country as to health, welfare, education, medical care and sustainability.Finally, a no-nonsense historian, none other than California’s Victor Davis Hanson, wrote a sobering story for all of America as to relentless immigration pouring over our borders, both legal and illegal: “Two California’s—Abandoned farms, Third World living conditions, pervasive public assistance -- welcome to the once-thriving Central Valley.” Full text in www.capitoliticalnews.com

Victor Davis Hanson touched upon it in his travels:

“Many of the rented-out rural shacks and stationary Winnebagos are on former small farms — the vineyards overgrown with weeds, or torn out with the ground lying fallow. I pass on the cultural consequences to communities from the loss of thousands of small farming families. I don’t think I can remember another time when so many acres in the eastern part of the valley have gone out of production, even though farm prices have recently rebounded. Apparently it is simply not worth the gamble of investing $7,000 to $10,000 an acre in a new orchard or vineyard. What an anomaly — with suddenly soaring farm prices, still we have thousands of acres in the world’s richest agricultural belt, with available water on the east side of the valley and plentiful labor, gone idle or in disuse. Is credit frozen? Are there simply no more farmers? Are the schools so bad as to scare away potential agricultural entrepreneurs? Or are we all terrified by the national debt and uncertain future?

“California coastal elites may worry about the oxygen content of water available to a three-inch smelt in the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta, but they seem to have no interest in the epidemic dumping of trash, furniture, and often toxic substances throughout California’s rural hinterland. Yesterday, for example, I rode my bike by a stopped van just as the occupants tossed seven plastic bags of raw refuse onto the side of the road. I rode up near their bumper and said in my broken Spanish not to throw garbage onto the public road. But there were three of them, and one of me. So I was lucky to be sworn at only. I note in passing that I would not drive into Mexico and, as a guest, dare to pull over and throw seven bags of trash into the environment of my host.

“In fact, trash piles are commonplace out here — composed of everything from half-empty paint cans and children’s plastic toys to diapers and moldy food. I have never seen a rural sheriff cite a litterer, or witnessed state EPA workers cleaning up these unauthorized wastelands. So I would suggest to Bay Area scientists that the environment is taking a much harder beating down here in central California than it is in the Delta. Perhaps before we cut off more irrigation water to the west side of the valley, we might invest some green dollars into cleaning up the unsightly and sometimes dangerous garbage that now litters the outskirts of our rural communities.

“We hear about the tough small-business regulations that have driven residents out of the state, at the rate of 2,000 to 3,000 a week. But from my unscientific observations these past weeks, it seems rather easy to open a small business in California without any oversight at all, or at least what I might call a “counter business.” I counted eleven mobile hot-kitchen trucks that simply park by the side of the road, spread about some plastic chairs, pull down a tarp canopy, and, presto, become mini-restaurants. There are no “facilities” such as toilets or washrooms. But I do frequently see lard trails on the isolated roads I bike on, where trucks apparently have simply opened their draining tanks and sped on, leaving a slick of cooking fats and oils. Crows and ground squirrels love them; they can be seen from a distance mysteriously occupied in the middle of the road.

“At crossroads, peddlers in a counter-California economy sell almost anything. Here is what I noticed at an intersection on the west side last week: shovels, rakes, hoes, gas pumps, lawnmowers, edgers, blowers, jackets, gloves, and caps. The merchandise was all new. I doubt whether in high-tax California sales taxes or income taxes were paid on any of these stop-and-go transactions.

“In two supermarkets 50 miles apart, I was the only one in line who did not pay with a social-service plastic card (gone are the days when “food stamps” were embarrassing bulky coupons). But I did not see any relationship between the use of the card and poverty as we once knew it: The electrical appurtenances owned by the user and the car into which the groceries were loaded were indistinguishable from those of the upper middle class. [Rampant ID forgeries, theft and fraud abound in California.]

“By that I mean that most consumers drove late-model Camrys, Accords, or Tauruses, had iPhones, Bluetooths, or BlackBerries, and bought everything in the store with public-assistance credit. This seemed a world apart from the trailers I had just ridden by the day before. I don’t editorialize here on the logic or morality of any of this, but I note only that there are vast numbers of people who apparently are not working, are on public food assistance, and enjoy the technological veneer of the middle class. California has a consumer market surely, but often no apparent source of income. Does the $40 million a day supplement to unemployment benefits from Washington explain some of this?“Do diversity concerns, as in lack of diversity, work both ways? Over a hundred-mile stretch, when I stopped in San Joaquin for a bottled water, or drove through Orange Cove, or got gas in Parlier, or went to a corner market in southwestern Selma, my home town, I was the only non-Hispanic — there were no Asians, no blacks, no other whites.

We may speak of the richness of “diversity,” but those who cherish that ideal simply have no idea that there are now countless inland communities that have become near-apartheid societies, where Spanish is the first language, the schools are not at all diverse, and the federal and state governments are either the main employers or at least the chief sources of income — whether through emergency rooms, rural health clinics, public schools, or social-service offices. An observer from Mars might conclude that our elites and masses have given up on the ideal of integration and assimilation, perhaps in the wake of the arrival of 11 to 15 million illegal aliens.

“Again, I do not editorialize, but I note these vast transformations over the last 20 years that are the paradoxical wages of unchecked illegal immigration from Mexico, a vast expansion of California’s entitlements and taxes, the flight of the upper middle class out of state, the deliberate effort not to tap natural resources, the downsizing in manufacturing and agriculture, and the departure of whites, blacks, and Asians from many of these small towns to more racially diverse and upscale areas of California.”

Frosty Wooldridge -- The deconstruction of America: California’s growing third world population

If California was an automobile it could best be described as planned obsolescence.

I smile at your characterization, while crying inside. Thirty five years ago this would have been so easy to stop. The writer's characterization is highly suggestive that it is past ever bringing to a stop. What is more depressing is I think that he is right.

I miss California with everything in my soul. But the California I miss no longer exists. He was describing what used to be my home. I am in tears. We left because my job was outsourced and I was unable to gain ANY kind of employment because I do not speak Spanish. Now even here in middle of nowhere Indiana, I have watched my town with a 30k population move from less than 3% Hispanics to more than 15% Hispanics. We only moved here 4 years ago. My sons principal even had the nerve to tell my hubby that if we wanted to remain in this city, we had better learn Spanish, it is the language of the future of this country. I don't know whether to get angry or weep. Our government is supporting this, encouraging it at every turn. I don't know where the line is that this invasion is no longer stoppable, but if we have not crossed it yet, I fear we will soon. Time is running out my friends, we need to work harder or we will lose this war.

Cayla99, you know what to tell your son's principal, where to stick his comment about "you better learn Spanish"...he's the same scumbag who said it was OK for your son to be beat up several times because he's a white kid.....right?

I say we NOT give up....even if we do get outnumbered someday. And I will not learn Spanish to please anyone else...to do so is reverse-assimilation and it's demanding the loss of OUR own unique linguistic and cultural heritage. if anyone learns that language they should do so ONLY to protect themselves...not to cave in. And not to burden my fellow tax-payers....but I will get on welfare and DEMAND restitution for all of the mental and psychological anguish this invasion has caused my pyche before I give up and reverse-assimilate to Hispanics....I encourage every patriot here to do the same if all else fails....and have LOTS of babies...because unlike the feral hordes who are already on welfare, YOU will actually be doing the U.S. a FAVOR by breeding lots of patriot babies though temporarily it's a burden to the taxpayers.

THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA: CALIFORNIA'S GROWING THIRD WORLD POPULATION

California mutating into another country

In this final part of Victor Davis Hanson’s assessment of California, he discovered, as I also witnessed, a complete ‘mutation’ of California from an American state to a linguistic, racial and religious polyglot—unable to function financially, educationally, lawfully and ethically. In his “Two California’s: Abandoned farms, Third World living conditions, pervasive public assistance -- welcome to the once-thriving Central Valley,” he discovered the same things I watched devolve in my five bicycle trips the length and width of that once gorgeous state.

It took 40 years to end up in a quagmire today, and, more sobering, it will not climb out of its hole. Like all third world countries, illiteracy grows faster than it can be cured. California will not be able to ‘right’ itself without the federal government finally issuing a ‘moratorium’ on all immigration and enforcement of U.S. laws.

Ironically, many of its most crime-ridden cities, collapsing hospitals, failing schools and overloaded prisons make their homes in ‘sanctuary cities’ where illegals enjoy immunity from arrest, conviction and deportation.

In California, a whopping four million illegals work, live and cheat on taxes everyday of their stay in America. Legal immigrants ride the welfare rolls like an art form. Regular Californians watch their state ‘mutate’ into another country right before their eyes.

Hanson watched from the side lines:

“Fresno’s California State University campus is embroiled in controversy over the student body president’s announcing that he is an illegal alien, with all the requisite protests in favor of the DREAM Act,” said Hanson. “I won’t comment on the legislation per se, but again only note the anomaly. I taught at CSUF for 21 years. (Dream Act failed last Saturday)

“I think it fair to say that the predominant theme of the Chicano and Latin American Studies program’s sizable curriculum was a fuzzy American culpability. By that I mean that students in those classes heard of the sins of America more often than its attractions. In my home town, Mexican flag decals on car windows are far more common than their American counterparts.

“I note this because hundreds of students here illegally are now terrified of being deported to Mexico. I can understand that, given the chaos in Mexico and their own long residency in the United States. But here is what still confuses me: If one were to consider the classes that deal with Mexico at the university, or the visible displays of national chauvinism, then one might conclude that Mexico is a far more attractive and moral place than the United States.

“So there is a surreal nature to these protests: something like, “Please do not send me back to the culture I nostalgically praise; please let me stay in the culture that I ignore or deprecate.” I think the DREAM Act protestors might have been far more successful in winning public opinion had they stopped blaming the U.S. for suggesting that they might have to leave at some point, and instead explained why, in fact, they want to stay. What it is about America that makes a youth of 21 go on a hunger strike or demonstrate to be allowed to remain in this country rather than return to the place of his birth?”

Paradoxical love-hate relationship of illegal aliens

Anywhere you travel in southern California, outside of American enclaves, you will see a definite bias ‘for’ Mexico and a ‘definite’ hate for America. On the one hand, they love to look back at their homeland as ‘wondrous’, but wouldn’t return to the poverty since America offers toilets, showers and an apartment to live a normal life—along with abundant grocery stores.

“I think I know the answer to this paradox,” said Hanson. “Missing entirely in the above description is the attitude of the host, which by any historical standard can only be termed “indifferent.” California does not care whether one broke the law to arrive here or continues to break it by staying. It asks nothing of the illegal immigrant — no proficiency in English, no acquaintance with American history and values, no proof of income, no record of education or skills.

“It does provide all the public assistance that it can afford (and more that it borrows for), and apparently waives enforcement of most of California’s burdensome regulations and civic statutes that increasingly have plagued productive citizens to the point of driving them out. How odd that we over-regulate those who are citizens and have capital to the point of banishing them from the state, but do not regulate those who are aliens and without capital to the point of encouraging millions more to follow in their footsteps. How odd — to paraphrase what Critias once said of ancient Sparta — that California is at once both the nation’s most unfree and most free state, the most repressed and the wildest.
“Hundreds of thousands sense all that and vote accordingly with their feet, both into and out of California — and the result is a sort of social, cultural, economic, and political time-bomb, whose ticks are getting louder.”

I cannot help but see that ticking becoming louder as angry, disenfranchised and arrogant Mexican nationals stomp on the American flag, throw trash everywhere possible instead of a trash can, and they flunk out of schools as a cultural prerogative. It’s as if they think or regard illiteracy as their greater good. But, they trash America while they cash U.S. food stamps.

Even more disturbing: California grows by 1,700 people per day along with an added 400 vehicles to service that number. It also must build a school per week to keep with educating them, which it can’t. Thus, a growing third world entrenched poverty class with no solutions.

Victor Davis Hanson wrote a brilliant book: Mexifornia. That book shows the transformation and devolution of California into a third world country. It portends sobering realities for all of America where third world immigrants dominate welfare rolls, food stamps, housing and hospitals with their endless stream of babies.
