everyone is or will be cutting back on spending/borrowing

Not everyone.

Yeah, stagnant wages, and wages driven down by millions of low wage illegal aliens can cause quite an impact

Yes, perhaps if you remain "one skilled" service type job. Not all states are effected, mine is not. Those state governments such as Calif, Arizona, NY etc need to take the bull by the horn and clean up their own act (enforcement) and not expect those in other states that do not rely on this type of labor force.

Welfare has to be addressed as sure easier to hand out the fish then teach the technique albeit welfare recipients need not work. Readdress those issues in combination and would be no need for an illegal workforce.

A bridge falls down in a state with a surplus, a levee breaks in a state that should have had more environmental/land use safe guards, a multi billion dollar tunnel is built and the rest of the unaffected states are made to contribute. Governors file "state of emergencies" when the emergency could be handled with good fiscal responsibility within that state and not the need of an entire country taxpayer bailout.

Government is so big, that no one knows what the other is doing therefore leads to corruption, incompetence, bureaucracy so wait over there someone will be with you soon..the hand on the clock glides by each hour $$$$$$$.

Bad news for ya. Every state is affected, including yours...For example, remember when construction used to be a skilled industry? Guess what, the illegals have brought down wages across the board in that industry dramatically. Along with many other industries. It filters down through everything.

Your so right, fight.

I’m here in AZ, and I can say with absolute confidence that if AZ would clean up it’s dreadful illegals problem, there are whole neigborhoods here that would begin selling like hotcakes.

There are thousands here who would still rather buy than rent, but the choices seem to be the ghetto (where it’s become impossible to raise children) the McMansions, or the very far desert.

A lot of us are holding our cards until the day comes that we can get a home in NPhoenix that doesn’t have burned out cars on the street w/ gang tags all over it, without buying into a newly gated HOA.
