That is probably the main reason I left L A in the fall of 2006. That and the fact that I knew the California economy was going to collapse.

You know, I was born in the town in which I still live.

I worked at the hospital where I was born for 26 years.

As such, I spent more time working in that hospital than any single Mexican national ever spent in what is now the United States, while it was Mexican territory.

Over 155 years later, I am now told this land was stolen from them, despite my nation paying for it, as well as fighting a war to win it.

If this land was stolen from anyone, the Spaniards stole it from the Indians in California, when they issued the large land grants in the 17 and 1800s, if not in part before that.

The majority of Mexican citizens today, have mostly Spanish European blood in them.

So much for the Aztec descendant’s supposed claim to my region, especially in light of the fact that it’s very iffy if the Aztecs ever ventured this far north, and even more questionably made ownership claims at any time.
