ILLEGALS: Cost cripples Calif.

Mr. Litman, you are right on with your assessment of what's going on in Arizona and California about immigration. I lived in Southern California most of my life. They might have brought cheap labor with them when they arrived but then they got on the state’s dime taking money from any agency they could plus crime went up, and yes, most of the money they made went back to Mexico. They cost California a bundle. Why California is in a mess is just not union pensions, etc., it’s also the illegals.
