THE STAGGERING COST OF THE WELFARE STATE MEXICO
AND THE LA RAZA SUPREMACY DEMOCRAT PARTY HAVE BUILT BORDER to OPEN BORDER’
According to the Federation
for American Immigration Reform’s 2017 report, illegal
immigrants, and their children, cost American taxpayers a net $116 billion
annually -- roughly $7,000 per alien annually. While high, this number is not
an outlier: a recent study by the Heritage
Foundation found that low-skilled immigrants (including those here
illegally) cost Americans trillions over
the course of their lifetimes, and a study from the National
Economics Editorial found that illegal immigration costs America over $140
billion annually. As it stands, illegal immigrants are a massive burden on
American taxpayers.
Pelosi Says Illegal Aliens ‘Make America More American’

House
Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Screen Capture)
House Minority Leader Nancy
Pelosi issued a statement
today attacking the Trump administration for brining suit
against the state of California for enacting laws the interfere with federal
enforcement of the immigration laws, which under the Constitution are the
responsibility of the federal government.
In her statement, referring to the illegal
aliens who would be deported if the Trump administration succeeded in enforcing
the immigration law, Pelosi said they “make America more American.”
“The people of California will
not be bowed by the Trump Administration’s brazen aggression and intimidation
tactics,” she said. “Californians will continue to proudly keep open doors to
the immigrants who make America more American. We will fight this sham lawsuit and
will fight all cowardly attacks on our immigrant communities.”
Attorney General Jeff Sessions
announced the federal government’s lawsuit against California in a speech today
to the California Peace Officers’ Association.
“[T]he Justice Department has
filed a legal action against the State of California, Governor of California
Jerry Brown, and Attorney General of California Xavier Becerra, seeking both
declaratory and injunctive relief based upon the enactment and implementation
of certain provisions of three California laws—Assembly Bill 450 (AB 450);
Senate Bill 54 (SB 54); and Assembly Bill 103 (AB 103)—which intentionally
obstruct and discriminate against the enforcement of federal immigration law,” the Justice
Department said in a statement.
“The complaint contends that the
laws in question are preempted by federal law and impermissibly target the
Federal Government, and therefore violate the Supremacy Clause of the United
States Constitution,” the DOJ statement said.
The DOJ statement explained
the three California laws in question.
“AB 450 prohibits private
employers from voluntarily cooperating with federal immigration
officials—including officials conducting worksite enforcement efforts and other
enforcement operations,” it said. “It also requires that private employers
notify employees in advance of a potential worksite, enforcement
inspection—despite clear federal law that has been on the books for
approximately three decades that has no such requirements.”
“SB 54 restricts state and local
law enforcement officials from providing information to federal immigration
authorities about the release date of removable criminal aliens who are in
their custody,” DOJ said.
“These criminal aliens are
subject to removal from the United States under federal immigration law, and SB
54 interferes with federal immigration authorities’ ability to carry out their
responsibilities under federal law,” it said.
“SB 54 also violates 8 USC 1373,
a law enacted by Congress, which promotes information sharing related to
immigration enforcement,” said DOJ. “The state law also prohibits the actual
transfer of criminal aliens to federal custody, which creates a dangerous
operating environment for ICE agents executing arrests in non-custodial
settings.”
“AB 103 imposes a state-run
inspection and review scheme of the federal detention of aliens held in
facilities pursuant to federal contracts,” said DOJ. “This includes review of
immigration processes and the circumstances in which aliens were apprehended,
and also requires access to privileged federal records that are under ICE’s
control. With this law, California is trying to regulate federal immigration
detention, which it cannot do under the Constitution.”
Pelosi defended what California
has done to thwart federal enforcement of federal immigration laws, saying that
what the Trump Administration is trying to do contradicts the system of
government created by the Founding Fathers.
“The Trump
Administration’s attacks on California are unacceptable in the federal system
of government our Founders created,” she said. “We have a system of
checks and balances – not a system in which the executive branch can
unilaterally bend states to its will. The federal government cannot force
states and localities to participate in the cruel roundup of immigrant
families, which spreads fear and thwarts cooperation with local law
enforcement.”
The Department of Justice
explained what it understands to be the constitutional basis for federal—as
opposed to state—authority over immigration law in its suit against California:
“The
Constitution affords Congress the power to ‘establish an uniform Rule of
Naturalization,’ U.S. Const., art. I § 8, cl. 4, and to “regulate Commerce with
foreign Nations,” U.S. Const., art. I § 8, cl. 3, and affords the President of
the United States the authority to ‘take Care that the Laws be faithfully
executed.’ U.S. Const., art. II § 3.
“The
Supremacy Clause of the Constitution mandates that ‘[t]his Constitution, and
the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof . . .
shall be the supreme Law of the Land . . . any Thing in the Constitution or
Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.’ U.S. Const., art. VI, cl.
2. Thus, a state enactment is invalid if it ‘stands as an obstacle to the
accomplishment and execution of the full purposes and objectives of Congress,’
Hines v. Davidowitz, 312 U.S. 52, 67 (1941), or if it ‘discriminate[s] against
the United States or those with whom it deals,’ South Carolina v. Baker, 485
U.S. 505, 523 (1988).
“Based on
its enumerated powers and its constitutional power as a sovereign to control
and conduct relations with foreign nations, the United States has broad authority
to establish immigration laws, the execution of which the States cannot
obstruct or discriminate against.”

What’s clear is that the producers are leaving the state and the takers are coming in. Many of the takers are illegal aliens, now estimated to number over 2.6 million. The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimates that California spends $22 billion on government services for illegal aliens, including welfare, education, Medicaid, and criminal justice system costs.

ENTERPRISE HOSPITAL AND CLINIC COST FOR LA RAZA’S “FREE” MEDICAL WHICH IS ESTIMATED
TO BE ABOUT $1.5 BILLION PER YEAR.
Liberals
claim they more than make that up with taxes paid, but that’s simply not true.
It’s not even close. FAIR estimates illegal aliens in California contribute
only $1.21 billion in tax revenue, which means they cost California $20.6
billion, or at least $1,800 per household.
Nonetheless, open border advocates, such as Facebook Chairman Mark Zuckerberg, claim illegal aliens are a net benefit to California with little evidence to support such an assertion. As the Center for Immigration Studies has documented, the vast majority of illegals are poor, uneducated, and with few skills. How does accepting millions of illegal aliens and then granting them access to dozens of welfare programs benefit California’s economy? If illegal aliens were contributing to the economy in any meaningful way, California, with its 2.6 million illegal aliens, would be booming.
Furthermore, the complexion of illegal aliens has changed with far more on welfare and committing crimes than those who entered the country in the 1980s. Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute has testified before a Congressional committee that in 2004, 95% of all outstanding warrants for murder in Los Angeles were for illegal aliens; in 2000, 23% of all Los Angeles County jail inmates were illegal aliens and that in 1995, 60% of Los Angeles’s largest street gang, the 18th Street gang, were illegal aliens. Granted, those statistics are old, but if you talk to any California law enforcement officer, they will tell you it’s much worse today. The problem is that the Brown administration will not release any statewide data on illegal alien crimes. That would be insensitive. And now that California has declared itself a “sanctuary state,” there is little doubt this sends a message south of the border that will further escalate illegal immigration into the state.

"If the racist "Sensenbrenner
Legislation" passes the US Senate, there is no doubt that a massive civil
disobedience movement will emerge. Eventually labor union power can merge with
the immigrant civil rights and "Immigrant
Sanctuary" movements to enable us to either form a new political
party or to do heavy duty reforming of the existing Democratic Party. The next
and final steps would follow and that is to elect our own governors of all the
states within Aztlan."
Indeed, California goes out of its way to attract illegal aliens. The state has even created government programs that cater exclusively to illegal aliens. For example, the State Department of Motor Vehicles has offices that only process driver licenses for illegal aliens. With over a million illegal aliens now driving in California, the state felt compelled to help them avoid the long lines the rest of us must endure at the DMV. And just recently, the state-funded University of California system announced it will spend $27 million on financial aid for illegal aliens. They’ve even taken out radio spots on stations all along the border, just to make sure other potential illegal border crossers hear about this program. I can’t afford college education for all my four sons, but my taxes will pay for illegals to get a college education.

If Immigration Creates
Wealth, Why Is California America's Poverty Capital?
California used to be home to America's
largest and most affluent middle class. Today, it is
America's poverty capital. What went
wrong? In a word: immigration. According to the
U.S. Census Bureau'...: The
Golden State is peddling fool's gold lately.
California used to be
home to America's largest and most affluent middle class. Today, it
is America's poverty capital. What went wrong? In a
word: immigration.
According to the U.S. Census
Bureau's Official Poverty Measure, California's poverty rate hovers
around 15 percent. But this figure is misleading: the Census Bureau
measures poverty relative to a uniform national standard, which doesn't account
for differences in living costs between states – the cost of taxes, housing,
and health care are higher in California than in Oklahoma, for
example. Accounting for these differences reveals that California's real poverty rate is
20.6 percent –
the highest in America, and nearly twice the national average of 12.7
percent.
Likewise, income inequality in California is
the second-highest in America, behind only New York. In fact, if California
were an independent country, it would be the 17th most unequal country on
Earth, nestled comfortably between Honduras and Guatemala. Mexico is
slightly more egalitarian. California is far more unequal than the
"social democracies" it emulates: Canada is the 111th most
unequal nation, while Norway is far down the list at number 153 (out of 176
countries). In terms of income inequality, California has more in
common with banana republics than other "social democracies."
More Government, More Poverty
High taxes, excessive regulations,
and a lavish welfare state – these are the standard explanations for
California's poverty epidemic. They have some merit. For
example, California has both the highest personal income tax rate and the
highest sales tax in America, according to Politifact.
Not only are California's taxes high,
but successive "progressive" governments have swamped the state in a
sea of red tape. Onerous regulations cripple small businesses and
retard economic growth. Kerry Jackson, a fellow with the Pacific
Research Institute, gives a few specific examples of how excessive government
regulation hurts California's poor. He writes in a recent op-ed for
the Los Angeles Times:
Extensive environmental regulations
aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions make energy more expensive, also hurting
the poor. By some estimates, California energy costs are as much as
50% higher than the national average. Jonathan A. Lesser of
Continental Economics ... found that "in 2012, nearly 1 million California
households faced ... energy expenditures exceeding 10% of household
income."
Some government regulation is
necessary and desirable, but most of California's is not. There is
virtue in governing with a "light touch."
Finally, California's welfare state
is, perhaps paradoxically, a source of poverty in the
state. The Orange Country Register reports that California's
social safety net is comparable in scale to those found in Europe:
In California a mother
with two children under the age of 5 who participates in these major welfare
programs – Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program (food stamps), housing assistance, home energy assistance,
Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children – would
receive a benefits package worth $30,828 per year.
... [Similar] benefits
in Europe ranged from $38,588 per year in Denmark to just $1,112 in
Romania. The California benefits package is higher than in
well-known welfare states as France ($17,324), Germany ($23,257) and even
Sweden ($22,111).
Although welfare states ideally help
the poor, reality is messy. There are three main problems with the
welfare state. First, it incentivizes poverty by rewardingthe
poor with government handouts that are often far more valuable than a
job. This can be ameliorated to some degree by imposing work
requirements on welfare recipients, but in practice, such requirements are
rarely imposed. Second, welfare states are expensive. This means higher taxes and therefore slower economic
growth and fewer job opportunities for everyone – including the poor.
Finally, welfare states are magnets
for the poor. Whether through domestic migration or foreign immigration,
poor people flock to places with generous welfare states. This is
logical from the immigrant's perspective, but it makes little sense from the
taxpayer's. This fact is why socialism and open borders arefundamentally incompatible.
Why Big Government?
Since 1960, California's population exploded from 15.9 to 39 million
people. The growth was almost entirely due to immigration – many
people came from other states, but the majority came from
abroad. The Public Policy Institute of California estimates that 10 million
immigrants currently reside in California. This works out to 26
percent of the state's population.
BLOG: COME TO
MEXIFORNIA! HALF OF LOS ANGELES 15 MILLION ARE ILLEGALS!
This figure includes
2.4 million illegal aliens, although a recent study from Yale University suggests that the
true number of aliens is at least double that. Modifying the initial figure implies that
nearly one in three Californians is an immigrant. This
is not to disparage California's immigrant population, but it is madness to
deny that such a large influx of people has changed California's society and
economy.
Importantly, immigrants vote
Democrat by a ratio higher than 2:1, according to a report from the Center for Immigration Studies. In California,
immigration has increased the pool of likely Democrat voters by nearly 5
million people, compared to just 2.4 million additional likely Republican
voters. Not only does this almost guarantee Democratic victories,
but it also shifts California's political midpoint to the left. This
means that to remain competitive in elections, the Republicans must abandon
or soften many conservative positions so as to cater to the center.
California became a
Democratic stronghold not because Californians became socialists, but because
millions of socialists moved there. Immigration turned California
blue, and immigration is ultimately to blame for California's high poverty
level.
