Undocumented workers who are hurt on the job are entitled to workers' compensation benefits, a state appeals court ruled.

Utter insanity.

What this article really does not communicate well is that California statutes require companies to benefits to illegals. The reason it was before a court was because the employer said federal immigration law should trump the California state law. It's a close question and not an insane ruling.

However, I hope it will have the affect of discouraging employers from hiring illegals. We'll see
