The Californian insanity.

Not to avail themselves of these benefits would be like deciding not to take candy freely offered to you.

I could get all kinds of state aid but I don't.

>>Firstly, I was a well-treated guest.<<

Dude, I can roll with the rest of your post, but this part is unbelievable.

So if you were a well-treated guest, and your host picked up a knife and slashed his family to death, would you just smile and walk out the door? You were well-treated, afterall.

They said that the (California) government gave them an apartment and they travel back to Mexico on the weekends. (I don’t know if they’re staying alone or if a family member is staying with them, but if I had to guess, they came alone.)

It's probably risky to put anything past California when it comes to illegals, but that arrangement sounds pretty implausible. An apartment for teenagers? It'd be interesting to know just what sort of circumstances led to these government paid benefits you describe.

Here’s a simple solution;

No E-Verify, no workee
No E-Verify, no public assistance

Not perfect, but a good start.

The Californian insanity.

The insanity that the rest of the taxpayers and their children in the U.S. will be paying for when this state goes belly-up and has to be bailed out while leaving all of its dysfunctional welfare programs intact.

Watch!

Free candy that they *are not* actually entitled to... That’s the main point.

And the well-treated guest gets to pay for it.

Taking candy is one thing. Taking money (candy) from people who are legal is another. The first sentence includes the word illegal. The last sentence includes the word candy. The remainder of the three paragraphs discusses what the rewards have been. Conclusion reached is illegal likes candy when a legal provides, and justification is rewards, fully legal. Excuse me ... this has made me ill, even though known to me was taking place.

I've long wondered why it seems that politicians, especially in the SouthWest, have pandered to illegal aliens, who after all, aren't supposed to be able to vote. Then it occurred to me. The reason is simple. It's just self-preservation. These people have seen the way the government allows the invasion of the South West, and realize that some day, those states will be "reclaimed" by Mexico. These people who have done so much for the illegal aliens hope to ingratiate themselves to the alien invaders, and make for themselves a "history" of providing aid to the invaders. Sort of like the Vichy in France during WWII.

I helped start a Telemundo TV station, it is hard to turn illegals in. But you do an incredible service just by outlining the problem. If authorities wanted to crack down, they have no lack of targets. You are probably more effective pointing out the huge cracks in the system.

[Logical me]

Does anyone have to ask why California will be a ghost State in a few more years? Already many of it’s Cities are in the crap whole and begging for help.

[Hildy]

If you know about it and don’t report it you are an accomplice to a crime. If you stayed with a “nice” family who told you that they rip off the company they work for millions of dollars on a regular basis, wouldyou sit still? Shame on you.

I spent the past 3 years working for a California-based contractor doing specialty construction of recreational facilities. It was hard work juggling multiple identities, and multiple timesheets for the various DBA’s that insulated my employer from paying overtime. It was also insulting, especially when these guys were being flown in from LA to do work we could have easily accomplished with local, domestic labor. My attitude quickly soured, my lifelong passion doused, and then they fired me. So even though a lot of these illegal aliens are nice folks to be around, they represent an insidious and destructive force that has no benefit for law-abiding Americans.

The question to ask next time is, why is Mexico unable to provide jobs, housing, and healthcare for its own citizens, when they have (as a citizen) the richest man in the world, Carlos Slim Helú? Make them think about why they have to leave their homeland to make a living when the white elite in their nation are living it up.

Most likely these cunning criminal illegals falsified state and federal documents to get these benefits.

Falsifying official documents is a felony.

They are probably riding the US gravy train, collecting benefits under multiple identities-—which they buy from document forgers for several thousand dollars per identity.

The Washington state rapist had some 30 identities.

Another illegal (one of many) collected $3.2 Million in UI benefits under several identities.

i hope you sleep well knowing by turning a blind eye you are doing your part to destroy your own economy...

[denydenydeny]

The grandfather told me most of entire complex, easily a 1000 units, were like him, on Californian assistance, but actually living in Mexico.

Blood. Boiling.

I met Mr. Jim Beam last night.....again.

[Vendome]

There is no one to to report them to.

They have (III)...Illegal Immigrant Immunity.

[Ajnin]

Even if I knew who to report it to in California, which I don’t, it is obvious that this is how it’s done

You came to the right place. I work for the Border Patrol. Give their names and give me their adresses and I'll take care of the problem.

Unfortunately, the "candy" must be taken from others before it can be given to these "well-of" invaders. You liberals are really generous with other people's money.
