Illegal immigration is destroying this state. Arnold will do nothing to change that.

That's how I'm reading it. Ughhh! I really enjoyed living here too, but I'm going to have to let the rest of you hold the bag since I'm not going to pay my own way along with 50 others. $7.4B for educating children of illegal immigrants nationwide and maybe another 10-15 times that much for free health care in our nation's emergency rooms.

The only way to save California is with a VAT (value added tax) on everything in concert with elimination of state income tax. It is unfortunately the only way to close the "cash compensation" loophole that the illegals now enjoy.

If you believe that, it shows that you have not spent much time in England. I have and noticed how regressive and job killing the VAT is. Try again.

#1 - Don't leave!

#2 - I worked in those emergency rooms. I know exactly how bad it is.
