10/10 Ca and USA right behind that screwed the pooch importing massive poverty. Got cheap houses built, cheap food, cheap lawn care but like I always say cheap is more expensive when you add in all macro economic costs and ongoing costs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_California
According to 2008 American Community Survey estimates,[6] California's population were 42.3% Non-Hispanic White, 6.7% Black or African American, 12.5% Asian, 1.2% American Indian and 2.6% from two or more races. 36.6% of the total population are Hispanics or Latinos of any race.

White people are not a majority, so it's ok to pin this one on darkie ;)

I keep in touch with a bunch of friends who made their way to Silicon Valley and it would seem that California is betting the (wind) farm on the next big boom of "green energy". I suppose if anyone can make that business viable it's Californians.

The colors hurt OP's credibility but I mostly agree.

If you move a huge number of third world people to a new country, they don't magically transform into first world citizens. We're seeing California slowly stoop down to third world standards. There will be a rich white upper class and a poor ethnically-native-american majority. That arrangement is what makes central and south america suck and is not what made California great. Instead of buying world-class education for middle-class kids like in the 60s and 70s, California is now buying diabetes drugs for perpetual peasants.

Aside from ethnicity, how is that different from the white trash states where the middle class is being squeezed out and you are left with the wealthy and the poor? US is turning into a third world country because of its economic policies, illegal immigration is a sideshow.

Sadly, yes. Even though the OP expresses it in a bit of an extreme manner, he's right. The Illegal Invasion is (and has been) doing great damage to Kahleeforneeya's economy.

From hospitals who've closed their emergency rooms because they can no longer afford to provide free medical care to the immigrants who won't/can't pay, to school districts whose budgets are "broken" by the "bi-lingual education" requirements, to high crime rates, requiring more and more police interaction...but since the city/county budgets are in the toilet, the cities and counties are having to lay off large numbers of their police and sheriffs...

Round them all up and send them home.

Do away with the "anchor baby" loophole in the US constitution. Require at least ONE parent to be a legal resident or citizen before the baby can be a citizen...and if the parents are immigrants, require them to apply for citizenship for the child...it's presumptuous as hell to assume that ALL immigrants want US citizenship for their child.

I was taught to hate myself but I love immigrants, especially illegal ones because they give me somebody to dump all my self hate on. They are worthless scum and I am great, and f you Mommy and Daddy. I can hate better than you. I just hope I don't run into any asshole that will show me who I really am. I wouldn't much like that. I don't much care to see I'm a worthless small minded raving bigot. I think I'll work on thinking of myself as objective, that's the ticket.

I prefer to take the longer view, the rift valley of Baha California will continue to widen, and in another 50 million years Western California will become the North Pole.

I can hardly wait? Meanwhile the political leadership of California is for sale on ebay, and only fools bid on the worthless.

My favorite part is you someone think Meg is the first person to "buy" political leadership here. The only reason idiots here re-elect the idiots we keep electing is because they've been "bought" through other means. Honestly "progressives" and "liberals" have ruined shit here, please don't give me a spiel about Republicans here in California. I live in Los Angeles area and we're over run with them.
