LA has become a sh*thole. I work in Downtown. It's only 22 miles from home, yet it can often take 90 minutes one way. Even though I'm in the nicest section of Downtown, the smell of human excrement is unbearable while walking around, I'm asked for a handout at least 10 times a day, and every day there seem to be more and more teen age latinos walking around with a couple of kids in tow.

The homes in my neighborhood are approaching seven figure averages. Good for me I suppose, but bad for my kids and everybody elses kids. The healthcare system in LA has become seriously eroded. Our local hospital, in a nice part of town and with a good reputation, only survives because it takes Medi-Cal.

This means that every trip to the emergency room means I'm one of the few English speakers in the room, the same is especially true of the maternity ward.

My beef is not that this city is overrun with latino's. There are many I've come to admire by becoming successful by the sweat of their brow.

My beef is that this city is over run with people who don't speak the language, they don't speak their own language correctly, have little education, maintain an underground, cash economy to the detriment of legitimate businesses, and take more from the economy than contribute to it. The non-stop flow of illegals will create an permanent underclass because of collapsing wages, from which will flow non-stop crime.

To those who say that they will do the work other people won't, I say, you pay more for it in hidden costs than if you were to limit the resource pool and pay more per item. People would end up consuming less.

The worst part is that no Republican is in the mayor's race.
