so since the Democratic party in California has not delivered what they promised out here,and has in fact KILLED this state....the same applies to them ...right?....
their education and immigration policies being the example......i cant wait for you to defend them.....
I don't know enough about Cali to speak. All I know is the GOP tried blaming our Democratic governor as they were sending all our manufacturing jobs overseas. So I suspect you have a right wing slant on whats happening in Cali.
Just because the voters in California are liberal, doesn't mean the corporations are too.
Companies hire illegals for sub par wages. This is anti middle class. And they don't insure them. So if they get sick, taxpayers pick up the tab.
Socialize the losses and privatize the profits.
The GOP is split on this. Half of you are Minute Men who want illegals out, and the other half want the cheap labor.
And we already know that Bush/the GOP tried to open up the borders so Mexican truckers can come into the USA. That's anti labor. And the unions are complaining. And they endorse the Dems. So maybe you should tell the unions if you know something they don't.
My guess is you have a right wing spin on whats going on in Cali. You should move to a red state. I hear they take in more federal tax dollars than they pay out.
Illegals have been a major budget breaker in California along with special interest groups. It's been fully loaded democrat legislatures over the decades that have put California on the brink of bankrupsty. "They can't say NO to spending."
As far as comparing the sympathy to illegal workers--here is Nancy Pelosi's statement on them--basically giving them a "safe haven" in San Francisco. So your comparison of Mexicans driving trucks through our country versus taking jobs--getting on the taxpayer social welfare programs--are extremely short sited. Democrats will do anything to keep the Latin American voting block--even while screwing YOU--the people who continually vote for them.

To add it was Bill Clinton that signed the NAFTA agreement with Mexico--not G.W. Bush? It was also during the Clinton admininstration when most jobs in manufacturing went overseas. BUT--California being the 2nd highest taxed state in the union--it's of no wonder to me that corporations would be looking elsewhere to set up operations.
I don't approve of this. If you remember in 2006 or 05, this was an issue that we all cared about, and we called Congress and demanded action.
So what did they give us? Some bullshit bill that didn't really solve the problem.
Remember, bleeding heart liberals can fight all they want for illegal immigrant rights. If employers weren't hiring them, they'd go home tomorrow.
Your party is split on this. Half of you like the cheap labor and half of you are Minute Men.
And I seem to recall in the past that hispanics tended to be conservative. I'm glad to hear they are voting Dem now. They tend to be socially conservative. Anti gay, anti abortion. Luckily they know that the most imporant issue is $. The wedge issues are just used to divide us.
I have more in common with the illegal immigrant than I do the millionaire Americans or Corporations who wants to cut my wages so they can make more profits. They pitted the illegals against us. I don't blame the illegal workers. I blame the illegal employers.
