NOTE ON PROPOSITION 30 ( WHERE CALIFORNIANS VOTED FOR A TAX INCREASE ):
California whites did not vote for Proposition 30.
Hispanics, however, did vote for it IN LARGE NUMBERS.
In short, Democrats didn’t change Californians’ minds on taxes or two party government — it changed Californians.
It wants to do the same for the rest of the nation. A second amnesty would merely expedite the Democrats’ achievement of their chief goal: bringing to the whole of America the California demographics that brought third world political, economic, and tax conditions to California.
I am curious for all Cali freepers, what does the CA-GOP do for outreach? Do they at least do some town halls and such? Or do they expect people to head against the wall and magically become Republicans?
California is also an object lesson to what you get when RINOs control the GOP and preach liberal-lite.
Pay for something and you generally find more people wanting to be on the receiving end.
I am beyond tired of the notion we need to take care of everyone who wishes to come here. If you have an employable skill, fine...if not, stay home.
Replace the word "California" with "Central America" - if you want to know where the US is headed, study the politics and economics of Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia.
Wait until Californians realize that they have elected a veto-proof legislature.
Prop 13 stands a high chance of being unraveled by the Democrats. They hate that they cannot keep raising property taxes beyond the limits of Prop 13, and they cannot wait to remove those restrictions.
How many home owners in Calif will no longer be able to stay in their homes there????
AMNESTY Bill PING
“...the Republican party should be relentlessly directing a blinding spotlight on the now ongoing and unstoppable pillage of California — and reminding Americans of the Democratic Party-engineered demographic revolution that made possible the ongoing destruction of what was once the nation’s most vital and prosperous economy.”
When my husband emigrated here in the mid-80’s, we had to show that he had a marketable skill and would not be a burden on the Government. How far we have fallen.

Canada and Australia still have the Skilled Labor migration program ( the points system ) in place.
We say we have such a system but have nothing to show for it in practice... which is to say ... our immigration system is a joke.
Nowadays, that kind of thing might get you deported. Only welfare cheats and layabouts need apply for naturalization in today's bizarro world!
Greece had TWO illegal alien amnesty events. See how well they are doing?

I have a friend who was brought here by his parents when he was 9. He is not legal. He does landscaping work. My conversations with him lead me to believe that neither he nor others in his community receive taxpayer funded benefits. When his family has to get medical treatment he either goes to the emergency room or the “clinic” and always pays cash for health services.
RE: My conversations with him lead me to believe that neither he nor others in his community receive taxpayer funded benefit
Did you ask him if he voted in 2012?
“I have a friend who was brought here by his parents when he was 9. He is not legal. He does landscaping work.

Ok? So, are you telling me that most illegals don’t want government dependency, and therefore don’t vote Democrat? (In spite of the fact that they shouldn’t vote at all.)
If that’s the case, can you explain Obama’s re-election?
Or, are you just telling me you know one quality illegal family? Not hard to believe. In any group there will be outliers.
It is going to be some very interesting times in the USA when the Hispanics with large populations are confronted with Islamists who also are growing by leaps and bounds. As of now both groups can work against traditional USA social foundations but as things are going the confrontations will change.
