If illegal aliens are such a boom to our economy, why is it that California (which has more illegals than any state) is in such horrendous shape? I read an article recently that the city of Salinas is closing its public libraries, and will become the largest city in America with no public library. The article said that the city’s population had grown but tax revenues were down. You had to read between the lines, but putting two and two together it looks as if the city has to pay for the upkeep of their new “residents”, so they can’t afford things like libraries any more.

Isn’t California in perpetual fiscal crisis now that it’s full of illegals?

Salinas has become a Mexican city. It is no longer an American city. Its middle class and their institutions have been overrun and displaced. Welcome to the Third World.
