SARCASM: The minimal amount taxes that they will pay will never cover the cost of the services that they will demand. Get ready for a tax increase if this is passed
DANE:Really? You are the one who is naive and alarmist, IMHO.

Again, do your homework before you post. Sarcasm is 100% right. Typical Mexican immigrant - legal or illegal - has a 7th grade education. Typical Hispanic woman has 3-point-something children. Do you think that such a family, no matter how hardworking, will begin to pay the costs of schooling, roads, healthcare, pollution control, policing, foodstamps, EITC and other social services they consume on minimum wage? In California, it is estimated the net cost per year of a LEGAL immigrant is over $2,500.00

We are importing poverty for the benefit of Big Business. Elites get benefit of little brown serfs, while the social costs are dumped on the taxpayer. This is no different than a large corporation dumping untreated toxic waste on public lands in the name of "competitiveness."

Uh don't forget farmers in your anti-business rant. You wouldn't have a whole host other vegetables or food if it wasn't for their labor.
