[Capt. Tom]

A paycheck for nothing will attract better than a paycheck for an honest days work anytime.

I can remember years ago looking out from my house in Mass. surrounded by snow and miserable cold, and wondering why immigrants from warm climates would be in such great numbers in the Boston area.
What's the attraction? What's here that they haven't got in the warm area they left. The answer, Free money free health care, free rent etc.
Kalifornia is even better as the climate is much nicer.- Tom

Of course politicians are slobbering over the hispanic vote (as if it were monolithic) but the Governor seems not to understand that there is an army of government bureaucrats at the federal and state levels who see illegals as job security.

They would just as soon see them go home as they would lay themselves off.

Something needs to be done about them first. I would suggest a great big tax cut, starve and shrink the beast, but after the past 6 years of government spending I doubt we'll see another tax cut in our lifetime.
