American Horse
AKA "Mustang"
The Arizona law will be a net economic gain for AZ. More AZ citizens will find useful employment there, the state's cost of government and public services will be decreased. Since the illegals import no real wealth, the economic activity of the illegals will be transferred from them to AZ citizens. A lot of the cross border immigration will attempt to find other access for crossing, but less so into Arizona.
Meanwhile many of the illegals already in AZ will move across state lines into California because of the magnet of an implied welcome mat. There (in CA) the burden from the same problem is already overwhelming its state treasury, economy, and public services of all types.
This single action by AZ could create a crisis in California, and in the pro-illegal immigrant community. I would expect some violence to be imported into AZ from California and like minded "precincts."
Arizona needs to hold fast; this may be the turning point in the illegal immigration saga, or it will be quashed by the Obama administration.
