Illegal Immigrants Cost California $30.3 Billion A Year—17.7% Of State Budget

When my son was born we had to pay the hospital full price up front before they would even let us in the door .

My wife wanted a particular doctor and she only worked out if that hospital

At delivery time the Labor and Delivery floor was full and we were treated like crap and had the lowest priority of any patients.in fact, we were ignored for several hours while the staff paid very close attention to the higher priority patients - most of whom were VERY demanding customers

I complained to the head nurse about this and this is what she told me

The patients were virtually all illegal aliens who were getting free, full ride maternity and delivery hospital care courtesy of the State of California

These illegals were coached as to their ‘rights’ by California social workers and were encouraged to demand what they were entitled to by State law

The illegals were actually being recruited by employees of California social services and the babies got American citizenship which gave the mother the right to live in the country and to receive full access to the California welfare system .

California social service workers coached the mothers on how to get maximum welfare benefits from state, local and federal government and also on how to bring the rest of the mothers family to live in the states with the mother and her anchor baby

This where I learned the term anchor baby for the first time

The nurse said she had been told numerous times by California social service employees that the goal was to change the demographics of California from white majority to white minority

Yes, that was the goal, and they achieved it.

Gray Davis actually held a celebration on the capital steps to herald the day when Whites fell below 50% in the state.

At the time I’m sure he was a card carrying anti-racist.

Some people probably bought it.

I’d be surprised if Whites still make up more than 25% in the state today.

It fell below one third quite quickly after the 50% level. the handwriting and all.

I have a gardener. He is a citizen who legally immigrated. He’s Basque. I have a housekeeper. She is legal. I’ve seen her passport.
It is possible to hire people here legally. My last housekeeper was a white, American citizen.
I don’t hire illegals.

Jim, how about just one way bullet train tickets from
Fresno back to Bakerspatch and beyond when possible?

[Jim Robinson]

I think the high speed train boondoggle goes only as far as Corcoran. Borden to Corcoran and then on to bankruptcy.

[Sivad]

Hmmm, if the Corcoran depot is to be built inside
the prison grounds I may need to rethink my position.

In CA, corrupt state government has been looting homeowners and tax payers for decades. These a$sholes are so corrupt, they've been forcing legitimate citizens to pay hundreds of billions for their precious criminal illegal aliens for decades, leaving Middle America victimized, looted and robbed.

This bull s**t will end, one way or another.

In the last ten years or so i have been in various hospitals for my dad, myself and taking two friends. maybe 30 times. In Emergency there are always mexican families and some of them i know for sue from talking to them are there of colds, flews and minot injuries. RERs are expensive methods for treating common medical problems. Some illegals sue the ER instead of having or going to an urgent care or a regular;ar MD.

[eyeamok]

Illegal aliens cost California $30.29 billion every single year”

And EVERY last penny should be DEDUCTED from the Public Employees Paychecks in this godforsaken tarnished State.

[Redleg Duke]

If true, it confirms that California has a “special kind of stupid” in the water, soil and air!

[Oatka]

I left in 88.
In total....the state lost four taxpaying people.

We left the same year - four of us taxpayers - myself, wife, and two kids who just entered the work force. Never looked back.
