They are living in the wrong country is all.....Send `em home.
They should be thrilled. They got exactly what they voted for.
Us smart ones quit the state for Texas.
Born and raised in So. Cal. But I won’t stay where I am not wanted. When someone says “You work hard for a good living — HAND IT OVER!” it is time to leave.
Good luck Cali. You’re on your own.
.. but their air is cleaner than ever. :-}
Another gift from Obama. How anyone could still be supporting that guy is beyond me.
Liberal Utopia = poverty
If they weren’t importing poverty from Mexico illegally they wouldn’t have so much.
That's the poverty line in California? Seriously?
About the only place you could exist on that is the central valley, where nobody wants to be (smells like cow patties.)
Hey! Jerry Brown! Your brother Charlie called. He says you should be in the comics.
5.9 million of ‘em are illegal.
Like, Unexpected.
But food stamps, section 8 housing payments and welfare benefits aren’t counted as income. So “poverty” is a relative term.
Good.
I hope it gets much worse for them.
Democrat controlled state living in poverty,expected.
More than 6 million fewer in Mexico are now living in poverty.
“More than 6 million Californians now living in poverty”
Well, there’s only one solution: increase taxes and redistribute the wealth to those who need it most!
I would add the “sarcasm off” tag, but this is EXACTLY what they’re going to do.
What defense is sarcasm against the inevitabilities of leftism?
While I believe California is largely infested by liberals (actual citizens) in their heavily populated areas of SF, Oakland, LA, etc., tying an ambiguous ‘poor’ connotation to an even more ambiguous description of ‘the group’ is even more specious. I’d be willing to be, a majority of the ‘Californians’ they say are ‘poor’ are, in fact, illegal aliens - undeserving of any public welfare.
If they are starving here, then go the hell home. We don’t want you here. You add no value to our stewpot.
How many illegally came to California from south of the border with nothing in their pockets and applied for aid or even have a cash paying job that they then use to wire money back home?
If you’re living on more than world median income ($2/day) you’re not poor.
The “poverty line” is 20x that.
