Welcome back, Elmer.
There's an aspect to the illegal invasion that nobody ever talks about. The government printing presses have been running to the point that the politicians are getting carpal tunnel syndrome from pushing the button and yet "inflation" remains allegedly low. How is that? Well, if the politicians can mask the true cost of hotels, meat packing, construction, etc. with illegal labor, and the true cost of producing a Mr. Coffee machine (the true cost being defined as the cheapest Americans could produce the same device) is obscured by Chinese imports, the fraud that "inflation" is "low" can be maintained. If a $125,000 house suddenly cost $250,000 and that Mr. Coffee machine suddenly cost $70 instead of $35 and the reason was the politicians have been stealing the value of your money by way of printing press excesses, you wouldn't be a happy camper now, would you?
So don't expect the illegal invasion to stop any time soon.
Why is that not fair?
I may be grasping at straws because anything else is insanity.
I agree, the illegals ARE the growth in both instances.
That, I understand. "Indigent care" should NOT be used to treat illegals - period. And NO policy should penalize the insured/paying patient for their choices to treat illegals under that guise.
Uh maybe becuase of years of a democrat party controlled California Legislature.
How could President Bush have seen these numbers and not been alarmed?
All he's interested in is his legacy of "I love Hispanics" and to let Carl Rove count some percentage of them on the voter rolls...just like Democrats do...
to force wages down to improve corporate bottom lines...
and to have Vincente Fox at the ranch and both croon " My $50,000 boots is purdier than your $50,000 boots"
Call me a Bush basher.... not true...but the truth will out and GWB is as bad as Clinton in NOT taking care of business when it comes to illegals and jeapordizing the nation he is sworn to protect and whose LAWS HE US SWORN TO UPHOLD...and invasion of the US is ILLEGAL !!!
Lotsa possibilities pardner...
The is NO good reason for the President to ignore the staggering numbers of people STILL invading the sovereign border of the U.S.

Hear Hear!
The truth and nothing but the truth and deserves to be shouted from every rooftop
Do you imply that the illegals ARE THE ONLY or ARE THE MAJOR source of growth in both instances.
Oh, the major source of growth.
And who put them there? Not your typical taxpaying Republican. They were elected by people who get trucked from polling place to polling place.
If your state become infested with a third world population, it will suffer from third world politicians.
What? Do you think that high home prices are a good thing? Home prices are high because corrupt California politicians are making it impossible to build homes. You know, supply, demand.
The rate of home ownership in California is about the lowest in the country.
Anabaptists can do anything that Mexican illegals can do. Except maybe all those things that Mexican street gangs are doing. They can't compete with them.
You would have to show me some stats to support that. Those stats that I have looked at don't support that.
According to Wikipedia, there are 1.3 million wordwide and 60% of them are african, asian, and hispanic.
Oh Thank You RINOs, Rove and King Bush for your patronage to the big business while you spit on hard working, law abiding Americans. Your elitism is beyond compare and we, the feeble minded robots, believe that you really care about values, homeland security and economic progress - NOT!
I am a conservative - Bush is not a conservative - he spends our money like theres no tomorrow, could care less about homeland security and is a proponent of limiting our rights. The GOP better give us something better in 2008 or Hitlery will be ordained.
Yep! The media just can't wrap their fingers around that phrase, can they?
Guess I'm a little late to the party. I was reading a Terri Schiavo thread last night, and had to go lay down.
Can't wait to hear all the intelligent responses to this excellent article.
Well, we don't need to import them. We have about 180 thousand of them here. They speak English, and if they can buy more land their numbers will increase to the point where where our population will be stable without immigration.
We are not Europe, and we are not a South American country. We have plenty of fundamentalist Christians who are willing to do hard work. We don't "need" illegal aliens any more than we need heroin or cocaine. There may be a lot of people willing to pay for illegal commodities but that does not mean we "need" them.
