Since you're a foreigner, I think it's time you quit telling Californians what to do!

being a 5th generation So. Californian I consider anyone imigdrating from another state to be a foreigner, along with the illegals they have totally corrupted a the good state that I was born and raised in!

As Joe Hadenuf has so kindly tried to point out to you, this problem is not specific to Kalifornia. It is infesting the inner-reaches of this land, and the taxpayers are paying the price.

So which is it? Is it not my problem because I don't live in the land of fruits and nuts or is it my problem because it effects us all?

I am a native Californian, and I think your post is inane, and parochial, and has unconstitutional overtones to the extent it attacks as illegitimate those Americans who have an opinion about the policies of another state. Have you never opined about what you think of the policies of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts?

Let me help you with some of this. In the end, we must all hang together as one nation, concerned about the place as a whole, or we will all hang separately.

Try to think a bit before you pound the keyboard is my best advice.

Ouch... that one hit me, and I am on your side.

I sincerely apologize... I will gather my retirement in the near future and exit this state. It was a relatively nice place 15-years ago... but that has all changed.
