Probably the only hope for CA is that the economy gets so bad that the immigrants leave for work elsewhere.
If people no longer hired lawn care, illegal casual labor and cut back on resturant eating..there would be a big loss of income to those who are costing the state a lot of money in schooling, health care etc.

Doubtful. They have reached a point of critical mass in CA so that they can support themselves on the underground economy, including crime. More and more productive citizens and businesses will leave the state as taxes are raised to support the immigrants, legal and illegal. The remaining cesspool called CA will just descend deeper and deeper into a third world like country. Today, one in four students drops out of school and one in three in LA.

1 in 4 California high school students drop out, state says Using a new system for tracking dropouts, California discloses a rate considerably higher than previously reported. About 1 in 3 students in Los Angeles Unified left school.
