Has Illegal Immigr. Been Good For Downtown Los Angeles?

If you've only visited Southern Calif. as a tourist, there's a good chance you made it out to Universal Studios, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Graumann's Chinese Theatre and several other tourist destinations. There are huge chunks of L.A., however, that don't feature blondes with perfect figures, palm trees and sunny beaches. In fact, the following is much more common ...

First, where is code enforcement? And I love the people picking through the trash--must be something valuable we can sell to Americans and other Latinos. And whoever owns the property on the other side of those sidewalks should have the crap fined out of them until they clean up the median. In Fla. one guy that had a boat (piece of junk) on a trailer next to his house received a letter that unless he gets rid of the boat or gets it current registration will have to pay $250 per day. Boat gone.
Hopefully, the sanitation department has not hired these Mexicans as garbage men because they really don't seem to care. Miss tossing garbage into the truck--not my yob to pick it up.
Thanks for posting this. I did not even see anything as bad in the middle east.

Don't see that in our travel brochures.

The trash!!!!! Doesn't anyone pick it up there? Well, by the way it's just obviously tossed around no one there cares anyway.

This should be required viewing for all Americans including our not so bright politcians (even though I know they don't give a damn). Note to Americans who are still in denial. Watch this video, your neighborhood, town, city and state can and will be next if you don't get off your arses and try your damnest to stop this invasion.

There's lots of things that might be "good" for an economy. Child labor, prostitution, heroin... seriously, a case could be made for pretty much anything having a positive effect on an economy, or area. That said, Illegal Immigration is not only just against the law, the net economic effect has been shown time and time again to be negative. It's also a negative in terms of tax monies. And it's also negative in cultural terms, because civilizations the World over have a right and responsibility to allow for 'controlled' immigrations into their native populaces; that's not racism or xenophobia, it's being common sensical about human nature.

But the biggest reason is that it's not only against several laws, it's in OUR CONSTITUTION. Nothing against anybody who wants to come to this great country, for whatever reason. Just come in the front door. And we will welcome you with open arms.

So much for hinding in the shadows eh!!

I would say it has been very very BAD!!!! Nasty!!!
