If illegal immigration is such a godsend, bayourod, why are so many people leaving California? Why are clinics and hospitals closing along the border? Our economy is growing in spite of the drag of illegal immigration.

I don't know why so many people are leaving California. I thought I saw somewhere that your economy is booming. I know your crime is down. Shipping companies are relocating to Houston because your ports are too crowded and you have a labor shortage.

As for hospitals closing on the border, on a couple threads in the past about hospitals closing it was brought out that new hospitals had opened in the area. The new hospital gets the patients who can afford to pay for the new equipment or who have good insurance. The better doctors are attracted to the newer hospitals. The old hospitals are left with the people who don't have insurance or can't afford the more expensive services.

It's not that the hospitals close because they have too many illegals, it's because they don't have enough rich folk.
