CALIFORNIA'S MELTDOWN: Report documents rising cost of living in California


JERRY BROWN’S LA RAZA-OCCUPATION of  MEXIFORNIA:
A MEXICAN WELFARE STATE AND CRIME TIDAL WAVE





Report documents rising cost of living in California

“Illegal immigration is another matter entirely. With the state budget in tatters, millions of residents out of work and a state prison system strained by massive overcrowding, California simply cannot continue to ignore the strain that illegal immigration puts on our budget and economy. Illegal aliens cost taxpayers in our state billions of dollars each year. As economist Philip J. Romero concluded in a 2007 study, "illegal immigrants impose a 'tax' on legal California residents in the tens of billions of dollars."



CALIFORNIA PUTS OUT $30 BILLION PER YEAR IN SOCIAL SERVICES TO ILEGALS  .... THEY ALSO GET MOST OF THE JOBS.


LA RAZA-OCCUPATION and LOOTING in MEXIFORNIA…. shocking!

“Californians bear an enormous fiscal burden as a result of an illegal alien population estimated at almost 3 million residents. The annual expenditure of state and local tax dollars on services for that population is $25.3 billion. That total amounts to a yearly burden of about $2,370 for a household headed by a U.S. citizen.”


“Until the dishonesty and tactical bluster cease, California is at serious risk of becoming a Third World entity, and the longer Democrats are in power, the more businesses will continue to flee the state, the more wealthy taxpayers will relocate and the more our standard of living will continue to decline.”


THIS SAME COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES HANDS A BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR TO MEXICAN INVADERS FOR THE LA RAZA ANCHOR BABY BREEDERS PROGRAM

There are still many for whom even overcrowded living spaces are not an option. The Economic Roundtable, a nonprofit research group, recently reported that in Los Angeles County alone, about 13,000 people on public assistance fall into homelessness every month.


"Rising housing costs, coupled with low and stagnant wages, have

resulted in some of the lowest home ownership rates in recent

history, reported the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) of

California. The LOA notes that “a typical California home cost[s]

$437,000, more than double the typical US home ($179,000).

California renters also face higher costs. In 2013, median monthly

rent in California was $1,240, nearly 50 percent more than the

national average.”


The roots of the current demand and inflated pricing can be traced to the 2008 financial crash. The US government bailed out the financial elite and big banks, which benefited directly from predatory lending, putting families into foreclosures while buying up foreclosed homes at a fraction of the cost. At its peak in 2010, the number of home foreclosures reached 2.9 million.

Report documents rising cost of living in California

Over 3.2 million families in California, one of every three households, struggle every month to meet basic needs. The state’s economy would be considered the world’s eighth largest if it were a country, with a GDP of $2.312 trillion.

Although they create this massive amount of social wealth through their labor, workers in the state find themselves in desperate living conditions, as they are squeezed out of housing in one of the country’s most inflated markets. Especially inflated were rents in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego and San Jose—cities with some of the highest costs of living in the country.

These are some of the many staggering findings presented in a recent report by the charitable organization United Ways of California. Struggling to Get By: The Real Cost Measure in California, documents the scope of poverty in California compared to the Federal Poverty Line, which does not take into account rising cost-of-living and greatly underreported financial need.

The report introduces what it refers to as a Real Cost Measure, which accounts for the basic needs of families by calculating the budgets of households considering the cost of housing, transportation, childcare, health care, and taxes in different cities, to determine if household incomes meet this minimum threshold to provide basic necessities.

Of the 3.2 million households below the Real Cost Measure, “87 percent have at least one working adult, and 76 percent of those are working 48 weeks per year or more,” according to the report.
While the majority of those who earn below the Real Cost Measure pay at least half of their income on rent each month, the United Way’s report found that the poorest among them, those living below the Federal Poverty Level, spent an astonishing 80 percent of their monthly income on housing.
Rising housing costs, coupled with low and stagnant wages, have resulted in some of the lowest home ownership rates in recent history, reported the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) of California. The LOA notes that “a typical California home cost[s] $437,000, more than double the typical US home ($179,000). California renters also face higher costs. In 2013, median monthly rent in California was $1,240, nearly 50 percent more than the national average.”

The average rent for a two-bedroom residence in San Francisco and San Mateo counties is $1,900. According to the California Housing Partnership, the average Los Angeles County apartment rental price is $1,716. In order to afford this and meet basic needs, a full-time worker would need to make at least $33 an hour ($68,640/year). The average rental in San Diego is $1,575, an increase of nearly nine percent compared to 2014, according to Marketpointe Realty Advisors.

Currently, the California minimum wage is $9 an hour ($18,720/year). A $13.25 hourly wage would amount to $27,560 annually, while raising it to $15 an hour would equal $30,000. These figures expose as completely inadequate the demand of a $15/hour minimum wage by a section of the Democratic Party and the trade unions. The “Fight for 15” doesn’t even meet the Real Cost Measure , and cannot ensure that even the most basic needs for families are met.

It is becoming increasingly impossible to live in California’s high-cost large cities. The LAO report notes that the state’s residents are forced to commute 10 percent further to work every day than elsewhere.

“People are having to cut back on food, medication, providing their children clothes to go to school,” Larry Gross, executive director of the nonprofit Coalition for Economic Survival, told NBC’s Southern California affiliate. “All the other essentials of life people have are being squeezed in order to maintain the roof over their heads.”

Gross added, “A lot of people say we need to build more housing, but the fact of the matter is we’ll never build our way out of the housing crisis we’re in because there’s no funding for it … but at the same time, we need to preserve affordable housing.”

The roots of the current demand and inflated pricing can be traced to the 2008 financial crash. The US government bailed out the financial elite and big banks, which benefited directly from predatory lending, putting families into foreclosures while buying up foreclosed homes at a fraction of the cost. At its peak in 2010, the number of home foreclosures reached 2.9 million.

Many of the families who lost their homes as a result of the crisis now find themselves permanent renters, increasing the housing demand.

Additionally, the dismal job market created by the financial crisis has had an overwhelmingly detrimental effect on young people, who find themselves unable to afford to live on their own, while life events such as marriage and starting a family move further out of reach.

Coupled with massive college debt and few prospects, the number of youth living at home is at an all-time high. According to the United States Census Bureau, more than 20 million adults between the ages of 18 and 34—nearly one in three—continue to live with their parents or family members, as they are unable to afford to live on their own. This figure has increased by three million since the recession. In California, 1.6 million people ages 18-29 have returned home.

This phenomenon, however, extends far beyond youth. Chronic unemployment, underemployment, home foreclosures, fixed incomes, a bleak job market, and skyrocketing rents have forced increasing numbers of middle-aged people to return to their childhood bedrooms.

The Los Angeles Times cited the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research and the Insight Center for Community Economic Development, reporting that “for seven years through 2012, the number of Californians aged 50 to 64 who live in their parents’ homes swelled 67.6 percent to about 194,000.”
Debbie Rohr, 52, her husband and children were forced to move in with her 77-year-old mother. “I said, ‘Mom, I’m so sorry but I don’t know what to do,’“ she said. “I dreaded it. If it wasn’t for my boys I wouldn’t have done it. I would have lived in my car.”

“It’s really hard mentally,” Rohr told the Times. “You feel kind of helpless, that you can’t provide for your family anymore and you have to move back home to Mom’s house.”

Californians are four times more likely to live in a crowded home environment compared to the rest of the country. Cramped living and difficult circumstances create high stress levels and unhealthy environments. A 2014 report by the non-profit organization Housing Long Beach (HLB), found that individuals and families experienced persistent stress, anxiety, depression and even shortened lifespans.

Children were especially affected as they are more likely to develop issues with their interpersonal skills, mental health, cognitive development, and are more likely to fall behind in their schooling and exhibit behavioral issues.

There are still many for whom even overcrowded living spaces are not an option. The Economic Roundtable, a nonprofit research group, recently reported that in Los Angeles County alone, about 13,000 people on public assistance fall into homelessness every month.

The high cost of living and inflated rental situation facing households in California are taking an enormous physical and mental toll on millions of families throughout the state. Access to affordable housing, where adults and children have privacy, quiet personal space, and the ability to flourish mentally and physically, is a social right, which can only be fought for on the basis of a socialist perspective.

ASSAULT ON THE AMERICAN WORKER: OBAMA - CLINTONomics at work! - Young autoworker earns too little to keep car on the road

Young autoworker earns too little to keep car on the road


"Because even though some 9 million new jobs were added to the U.S. economy from 2000 through

2014, about 18 million new immigrants, legal and illegal, entered the U.S. during that time,

according to the Center for Immigration Studies. This, even as the native population also grew."



THE REALITY OF OBAMAnomics: LOOT THE MIDDLE-CLASS TO SERVE THE 1% AND

SABOTAGE OUR BORDERS TO KEEP THE ENDLESS HORDES OF ILLEGALS JUMPING

OUR JOBS TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED!


"Obama expanded the Wall Street bailout, handing trillions of dollars to the criminals who wrecked the economy. He then utilized the financial meltdown to restructure the auto industry on the basis of brutal pay cuts, setting a precedent for the transformation of the US into a low-wage economy."

"In the midst of the deepest slump since the Great Depression, the administration starved state and city governments of resources, leading to the destruction of hundreds of thousands of education and public-sector jobs and the gutting of workers’ pensions. Obama’s Affordable Care Act set in motion the dismantling of employer-paid health insurance and massive cuts in the Medicare insurance system for the elderly."


Sen. Bernie Sanders fights for the American worker.
THE CONSPIRACY TO SURRENDER AMERICA’S BORDERS…. The partnership between Wall Street-owned Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and the  KOCH BROTHERS to surrender our borders and borders laws to assure a steady flood of illegals into America. Keeping wages depressed and passing along the real cost of all that “cheap” labor through taxes on the American middle-class will keep their corporate paymasters happy, profitable and generous. There is not ONE billionaire that does not support Obama’s amnesty hoax to legalize Mexico’s looting.



OBAMA-CLINTONomics is a simple device...

Serve the super rich and pass the cost of their looting and Wall Street crimes on to the backs of the last of the American middle-class!



"Of course, the wealth of the financial elite cannot come from nowhere. Ultimately, the continual infusion of asset bubbles is the form taken by a massive transfer of wealth, from the working class to the banks, investors and super-rich. The corollary to rise of the stock market is the endless demands, all over the world, for austerity, cuts in wages, attacks on health care and pensions."






“As a result, the share of wealth held by the richest 0.1 percent of the population grew from 17 percent in 2007 to 22 percent in 2012, while the wealth of the 400 richest families in the US has doubled since 2008.”


OBAMA-CLINTONomics
Did their crony banksters ultimately destroy the global economy?


Richest one percent controls nearly half of global wealth



Young autoworker earns too little to keep car on the road

By Jerry White 
7 September 2015
It is often the case that during shift changes at automobile factories in the United States one will see scores of workers driving out of parking lots with cars badly in need of repair. These older models are generally driven by second-tier autoworkers whose wages of $16 to $19 an hour hardly enable them to keep their cars on the road and to get back and forth from work.

These same workers produce vehicles that can sell for $30,000 - $40,000 or more. On any given day, three shifts of workers, laboring for 10-hours each, can produce 1,200 vehicles, with one rolling off the assembly line every minute. The companies make up to $10,000 in profits per vehicle for several SUV and other light-truck models.

The young autoworkers, however, average around $680 a week, before taxes and union dues are deducted. Once they pay for food, utilities and other critical bills, particularly if they are raising children, there is little left to make a payment on a new or even used vehicle. Money spent on car repairs means skipping a payment on utilities or some other necessity.

The World Socialist Web Site recently spoke with a young worker, MaryAnn, from a Fiat Chrysler plant in Detroit. In order to protect her from retribution by management or the United Auto Workers, we are using a pseudonym.

The WSWS spoke to MaryAnn at her house in Detroit as a neighborhood repairman was taking away her 2001 car to work on it. Only a few days earlier a failing alternator had caused the power to turn off as she was driving back from work on a local freeway.

“People on the outside say, ‘Hey, you work at Chrysler, you must be doing good.’ It may be better than $8-9 an hour job, but we have nothing left once we pay our bills. I bought my car used five years ago. I don’t want to make a new car payment; I’d rather be making a payment on a house if I can get one.

“It’s not easy. The American Dream is really a nightmare. You work hard and then you die—that’s the reality. Two people in a household can’t afford a new car. Instead they are struggling to keep the cars they have. It’s rent time now, and the $300 I’m paying to get the alternator fixed is going to come from the $750 I owe for rent.

“A lot of younger workers are still living at home with their parents, and they are not looking ahead at things like job security or owning a home. My dad worked in the plant for 30 years, and he didn’t want me to follow him. He wanted a better life for his kids. It used to be that the auto industry was one of the best places to work. Not anymore. After eight hours in there, your body shuts down. But you still have to work another two.

“On the assembly line you hear the squeaks and see the leaks. But they won’t shut it down. If the CEO, Sergio Marchionne, comes for a tour, they clean everything up. We have bins of parts that are so ragged that you cut your hands on the bottom. It gets fixed up with duct-tape.

“With our pay, any extra cost, like $400 or something, throws a huge monkey wrench into your budget. It’s huge. The UAW officials are telling people to ‘save your money for a strike.’ How are we supposed to save anything? Now they are saying we would only get $200 a week in strike pay.
“The older workers fought and had better conditions. The overall structure was better. There was more job security, and wages were better. Now with the two-tier system, the UAW has workers divided against each other. There are divisions, but older workers try to teach the younger workers how it should be.

“We should all be united. But that wouldn’t be beneficial to the UAW. They want hostility and division in the plants.

“We don’t trust the UAW. Even if they called a strike, it would be for one or two days, to make us think we have power, and then behind the scenes they would sign another rotten deal. They haven’t told us anything. The union steward walks down the line and won’t even make eye contact in order to avoid talking to us. Workers ask him, ‘Hey, what is happening with the contract?’ He always has the same answer: ‘Nothing.’

“Now they have us wearing red t-shirts in the plant because, they say, it will show the managers that we are united. It’s BS. They are going to sell us out whether we wear a red shirt or a green shirt. The union will do what they want to do. I’ve gone to union meetings. The president doesn’t know how to talk to us. It’s offensive,. We’re adults, and he talks like we’re children. At one meeting a retiree got up and asked a question, and the president shouted, ‘You should have your own meetings.’ They talk aggressively to workers, and then they lay down before management.

“We’ve had workers post things on social media about what is happening in the plant and they get called into the union president’s office.

“I have a strong feeling they are going to make us work past the contract deadline, like they are doing to the steelworkers. Now the UAW is going around telling the second-tier workers that if they are not current on their union dues they cannot vote on the contract and won’t get a signing bonus.

“A lot of first-tier workers are schooling the younger workers about this. They say, don’t fall for the signing bonus. We need to get back the concessions we gave up. All the companies do is take, take, take. Workers create the wealth, but we are not wealthy. The billions we make are not invested in the factories—they are in disrepair or are being closed. They threaten us in order to get us to work for less.

“All workers should be united—autoworkers, steelworkers. We have a common fight not to be lied to and pacified but to get the real deal. The UAW and the United Steelworkers are pretty much against us. Unions won’t unite workers; workers have to unite ourselves.

“The companies are greedy, but the workers aren’t. It’s insulting that we don’t make enough to feed our families. All workers face the same fight—what affects one of us, affects all of us. We are common links in a chain.”


THE OBAMA ASSAULT on the AMERICAN WORKER: IT’S WORKING!!!
"With the approach of the 2016 elections, the Democratic Party and its trade union allies are once again ramping up their efforts to fraudulently posture as advocates of working people."


 “But these attempts to palm off the Democrats as defenders of the working class, and in particular of low-income workers, stand in stark contrast to the actual record of the Obama administration, which has waged a systematic and determined campaign to slash the wages of workers in order to further enrich the banks, hedge funds and major corporations.”

Foreign-born women gain 141,000 jobs, U.S.-born women lose 90,000
By PAUL BEDARD

(OBAMA: 8 YEARS OF PUTTING ILLEGALS IN OUR JOBS!)

The surge in the numbers of foreign-born women getting U.S. jobs at the expense of American-born women expanded in August, continuing an eight-year trend.



New Bureau of Labor Statistics info detailing August jobs shows that the number of U.S.-born women 16 and older with jobs declined by 90,000 and rose for foreign-born women by 141,000.

There are currently 59.258 million American-born working women compared to 10.028 foreign-born working women.

Secrets last month reported that all job gains among women since the 2007 recession hit went to foreign-born women workers.


AMERICA: NO LEGAL NEED APPLY!!!
It started the day Obama moved into the White House and commenced the perpetration of his “hope & change”.

"We could cut unemployment in half simply by reclaiming the jobs taken by illegal workers," said Representative Lamar Smith of Texas, co-chairman of the Reclaim American Jobs Caucus. "President Obama is on the wrong side of the American people on immigration. The president should support policies that help citizens and legal immigrants find the jobs they need and deserve rather than fail to enforce immigration laws."

The Employment Situation of Immigrants and Natives in the Second Quarter of 2013

That President Obama would lawlessly bring in more cheap labor at the request of corporate interests at a time when tens of millions of Americans are unemployed speaks volumes.



Labor Day in America

Union sellouts promote Democratic wage-cutters

8 September 2015
Monday’s official Labor Day events highlighted the anti-working

class lineup of the trade unions and the Democratic Party in the

United States. In the face of mounting working-class anger and

disgust with both big-business parties, the professional sellouts who

run what is called the labor movement did their best to promote the

myth that the Democrats speak for the working man.

Labor Day events called by the AFL-CIO and other unions in Boston, Pittsburgh and Detroit attracted few workers. In New York City, the labor federation has not even bothered to hold an event for years.
The disaffection of workers with these organizations stood in sharp contrast to the praise heaped on them by President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden. In Boston, Obama spoke before a rally of 700 people, overwhelmingly union bureaucrats and Democratic Party officials, before inviting American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten and Service Employees International Union President Mary Kay Henry to fly back to Washington, DC with him on Air Force One.

In Pittsburgh, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and United Steelworkers President Leo Gerard hosted Vice President Joe Biden, who is considering a run for the Democratic presidential nomination against Hillary Clinton, whose campaign shows signs of foundering.

BLOG COMMENT: HOW MANY ILLEGALS

HAVE JUMPED OUR BORDERS AND JOBS

SINCE THE "Hope & No Change" CLOWN

JUMPED THE WHITE HOUSE???


Obama and Biden both decried worsening

conditions for the “middle class” and record levels

of social inequality, evidently hoping that no one

would notice that they have been in power for the

past six-and-a-half years.

With a straight face, Obama declared that he had “walked the walk” when it came to protecting “the middle class.” He denounced the Republicans for waging a “constant attack on working Americans” and expecting that “prosperity will come raining down on us from the top of whatever high-rise in New York City.”

In Pittsburgh, Vice President Biden did his “ordinary Joe” routine. “I am mad, I am angry” about the way workers have been “clobbered” in recent years, he shouted. Pointing to rising worker productivity alongside declining wages, he put on his “candid” face and said, “Here’s the deal, folks: It’s set up that way.”

Do these corporate-controlled politicians really think the

American people are that stupid?

Biden pretends that he and the administration for which he

speaks are not part of the “set-up.” In fact, the Obama

administration has proven to be a ruthless enforcer of the

demands of the corporate/financial elite.

Obama expanded the Wall Street bailout, handing trillions of dollars to the criminals who wrecked the economy. He then utilized the financial meltdown to restructure the auto industry on the basis of brutal pay cuts, setting a precedent for the transformation of the US into a low-wage economy.

In the midst of the deepest slump since the Great Depression, the administration starved state and city governments of resources, leading to the destruction of hundreds of thousands of education and public-sector jobs and the gutting of workers’ pensions.

Obama’s Affordable Care Act set in motion the dismantling of employer-paid health insurance and massive cuts in the Medicare insurance system for the elderly.

At the same time, Obama oversaw a record rise in stock prices, corporate profits and CEO pay on the basis of virtually free cash for the financial elite, compliments of the Federal Reserve Board.
In introducing Biden in Pittsburgh, USW President Gerard praised him as the force behind a job-creation boom under Obama. “Joe Biden has been in the room, he has been the voice of working people in that room,” Gerard declared.

What job creation? A Labor Day 2015 report by the National Employment Law Project noted the “historically low employment rate of prime-age workers and the stubbornly high number of individuals unemployed for longer than six months.” The real unemployment rate—which includes those working part-time who want full-time work and those who have stopped searching but would take a job if one were available—remains at more than 10 percent.

The new jobs that have been created—largely part-time and in low-paying service industries—have replaced better-paid jobs wiped out by the corporations after the 2008 financial crash. Real median wages have fallen by four percent since the recession officially ended in mid-2009. The lowest-paid workers have suffered an average 5.7 percent decline in real wages.

The Economic Policy Institute reports that net productivity growth of 21.6 percent from 2000 to 2014 translated into a mere 1.8 percent rise in inflation-adjusted compensation for the median worker. In other words, eight percent of productivity growth went to labor, while 92 percent went to capital.
In the latest of a series of token “pro-labor” gestures, Obama signed an executive order Monday requiring federal contractors to provide up to seven days of paid sick leave a year. The order will apply only to new federal contracts starting in 2017. It will affect at most 300,000 workers, a miniscule fraction of the working class.

BLOG COMMENT: THE DEM PARTY IS THE NOW THE LA RAZA SUPREMACY PARTY HELL BENT ON BUILDING THE MEXICAN WELFARE STATE ON OUR BACKS... ILLEGALS ALREADY GET OUR JOBS!

The unions and their “left” apologists are once

again seeking to throttle working-class opposition

by channeling it behind the Democratic Party,

which has deservedly been called the graveyard of

social protest.

These efforts include the Democratic presidential campaign of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who has attracted a following with his denunciations of the “billionaire class” and condemnations of social inequality. The fact that Sanders, a longstanding ally of the Democratic Party, calls himself a socialist has made him all the more attractive to workers and youth looking for an alternative to the existing economic and political system.

But this supposed “socialist” has made it clear that the principal aim of his campaign is to restore credibility and revive flagging popular support for this anti-working class party of war and social reaction.

The substantive differences between the two parties of big business are marginal. One tactical difference is that the Republicans tend to oppose the unions while the Democrats prefer to use the services of the trade union bureaucracy to suppress the class struggle.

At the beginning of the year, there was speculation in the media about a wages push, with some 5 million workers coming up for contracts in 2015. There were warnings that the mounting anger of workers, after the longest period of wage stagnation since the Great Depression, would fuel a revival of class struggle.

That no wages offensive has as yet emerged is due to the sabotage of the trade unions. Just last week, the United Steelworkers ordered 30,000 members at US Steel and ArcelorMittal to continue working without a contract, leaving 2,200 workers locked out at Allegheny Technologies to fight the company on their own.

There are hundreds of thousands of workers—at Verizon and

AT&T, at the US Postal Service, in school districts in Chicago,

Detroit, Pittsburgh and other cities—who have been blocked by the

unions from taking action against further concession demands.

In a week’s time, contracts for 140,000 autoworkers at GM, Ford and Fiat Chrysler are set to expire. Far from preparing a struggle, the United Auto Workers has pledged never to return to the days of “uncompetitive” labor agreements.

The UAW has offered to take over the provision of medical benefits for all Big Three autoworkers—active and retired, union and nonunion—in order to gain access to multibillion-dollar trust funds. In return for this new stream of revenue for the army of union bureaucrats, the union will take over the job of cutting health benefits for workers and agree to impose other concessions demanded by the companies.

The artificial suppression of the class struggle has its limits. Like workers in Greece, Germany and other European countries, and workers in Latin America, Asia and Africa, US workers are being thrust into a political confrontation with the capitalist system. This brings the workers into an ever more direct conflict with the corporatist arms, businesses in their own right, of the companies and the government—the unions.

UNIONS ASSAULT THE AMERICAN
WORKER

… just like the Democrat Party, Wall Street, LA RAZA Fascist Party, and Mexico

“In city after city, minimum wage laws have included union exemptions. The pro-business US Chamber of Commerce published an extraordinary report last year, “Labor’s Minimum Wage Exemptions: Unions as the ‘Low-Cost’ Options” which provided details about many of these ordinances.”


“After decades of betrayals, the unions are incapable of boosting membership through appeal to workers. Instead, with the backing of a host of pseudo-left supporters, the minimum wage ploy is being used to entice employers to install unions in their workplaces and funnel money from workers’ already meager paychecks into the bank accounts of the union executives.”

NAFTA AND THE DEATH OF A NATION

THE CONSPIRACY TO SURRENDER AMERICA’S BORDERS…. The partnership between Wall Street-owned Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and the  KOCH BROTHERS to surrender our borders and borders laws to assure a steady flood of illegals into America.

Our national sovereignty and manufacturing base has been destroyed 
through NAFTA and CAFTA which has resulted in totally open borders 
culminating in the overwhelming of our  infrastructure, hospital emergency
