If businesses on a grand scale didn’t profit immensely from the illegal alien occupation, their would be no attraction at all; this also relates to the intentional flow of foreigners to grab US taxpayers benefits that should only apply to those of us, who have paid into these services since beginning our working life. Businesses that hire illegals should be considered “an enemy of the people” and all penalties should be ratcheted-up, prison terms included. This is a war for survival and foreign nationals are—stealing jobs—from low income Americans and legal immigrants that came before them.


The Tea Party is your deterrent, with its own ethical minded politicians and growing in large numbers of Independent, Democrats, Republicans and even Liberals to stop the political paralysis in Washington over illegal immigration.  Only Public outburst will halt the failures of the US Government to defend Americans taxpayers from foreign economic free entitlements. Call your Senator and Congressman, to be found in blue pages of phone directories and appeal to their patriotism and oath of allegiance to protect us. Go to the website of NumbersUSA and fax for free the US Capitol.

So as always for the Leftists who are more favorable to illegal alien children, than students from outside the State, who must pay full tuition even though they were born here or naturalized. Hosting America’s largest population of illegal immigrants, The State bears a mammoth costs to supply basic human services for this rapid growing, low-income segment of an illegal population. A new study from the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) has projected the costs of education, health care and incarceration of illegal aliens, and concluded that the costs to Californians taxpayers is $10.5 billion annually and rising. Among the key decision from the report that the California already has a besieged K-12 education system that spends approximately $7.7 billion a year to educate the children of illegal aliens who now amount to 15 percent of the student body.


Another $1.4 billion of the taxpayers’ pilfered pocket goes en route for providing health care to illegal aliens and their families; this same amount is taken from taxpayers incarcerating illegal aliens criminals.  Utah and other States catering to the illegal alien swarms, need to recognize the economic disaster that will befall them,  if they do not implement policing laws that include E-Verify, to detect workplace foreign workers,  local police laws 287(g) and the latest policing law Secure Communities.  Illegal immigrants will flow unfettered into soft enforcement States and overrun the welfare system as they have in California, Nevada and other undisclosed refuge States.  Taxes will spiral; crime and other emerging issues in neighborhoods where foreign nationals congregate.

Sanctuary States future lament


The Utah taxpayers will pay a hefty price, if the fed’s tolerating them to enact their own Guest Worker program?  This will bring in more family members and start the whole routine of “Chain Migration” snowballing again. Those parents are slipping across the fragmentary border, with a guide book telling them how to deceive the welfare system in any State. Those illegal parents have figured out that by getting an IRS ITIN number they can pay a few taxes, but have also acquired the knowledge to fraudulently get those taxes returned to that Father and Mother interchanging the children, to pilfer the child tax rebate tax code or even a cousin or sister applying for a rebate for the same child. But rest assured if Immigration and Customs Service approves of Utah’s Guest Worker visa, there will be enraged condemnation rising to the surface against President Obama’s czars whom have flamed the people’s passions by trying to derail Arizona’s policing laws.


I think US taxpayers today are so angry after alerted to the outrageous costs catering mindlessly to the illegal immigration invasion. Even in my blogging’s, comments and my own E-mails responses, dutiful, Liberals are beginning to see the light, that American society cannot sustain the burden of paying the way of illegal immigrants and their extended families. Unfunded mandates seem to abound within the Liberal, Democratic and even Republican Party member’s ideologies, as even the courts have declared we must financially entertain anybody who crosses our border or who stays on a expired visa. Once our own children’s schools were places of high performance and now they are weighed down with foreign kid’s, who has American-English as a second language, as at the same time the hospitals are seeing volumes of sick foreigners, for serious or minor treatments.

Then we have California state legislative committee last Tuesday passing two bills that would make students of illegal parents qualified for some forms of financial aid. Guess it goes with the grain of the majority occupants seated in the Sacramento Capitol who are Tax and Spend leftists.  If the Sanctuary State of California didn’t have enough financial problems, with a $26 billion dollar State deficit and counting and has just issued lay-off notices to 20.000 teachers statewide, adding 30.000 teachers already terminated in the past three years. The Liberal leadership is going out its own, to extend in-state tuition to the children of illegal aliens settled in the State. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed three earlier versions of these measures; co-sponsors are more buoyant this year, as Gov. Jerry Brown campaigned in support of what is known as the California Dream Act.

Sorry, we missed your input...

User Guidelines

Please be respectful and relevant. Thought-provoking. Or at least funny.

We want comments to advance the discussion and we need your help. Debate, disagree, yell (digitally) or laugh, but do it with respect.

We won't censor your comments if we don't agree with you; we want viewpoints from across the political spectrum. We're dedicated to sparking an open, active discussion. We believe people with differing opinions can spark debate and effect change.

Comments are open to registered users of TucsonSentinel.com.

Keep in mind:

  • A conversation involves sharing and respect. Support your viewpoint with facts, not attacks.
  • Ask questions. Search out answers.
  • Remember that being part of a community requires tolerance for differing views.
  • We can't ensure that all comments are based in truth. The only comments we endorse are those we write ourselves.

TucsonSentinel.com does not allow:

  • Hate speech. Blatantly racist, sexist or homophobic slurs or calls for violence against a particular type of person, etc. will be removed.
  • Obscenity & excessive cursing. Sometimes a well-placed curse word - if you're creative enough to get it past our auto-censor - can express your point in just the right way. But we say '%*$& no' to cursing for cursing's sake. And lose the explicit sexually-descriptive language. It doesn't contribute to the debate and there are plenty of other places on the Internet to find it.
  • Flaming. During a heated discussion, unkind words may be spoken. We can live with a certain amount of rudeness in the name of provocative conversation, but a pattern of personal attacks (name-calling, mocking, or baiting) is not acceptable nor are threatening or harassing comments. Show some respect, please.
  • Spam. Solicitation of products or services isn't allowed; contact us about advertising, we'd love to talk to you. Links to off-topic sites may be deleted.
  • Copyright or IP infringement. Lengthy quotes and violations of 'Fair Use' aren't allowed. Anything you post should be your own work.
  • Overposting. Don't bore people and waste electrons with identical comments on multiple stories or repetitive comments that don't advance a conversation.
  • Trolling, sockpuppetry, and other abusive behavior. Please don't feed the trolls and don't pretend to be someone you're not.
  • Gossip. Don't bring up others who can't defend themselves. We don't give out personal information; you shouldn't either.

Comments that violate these guidelines may be removed. We reserve the right to make up the rules as we go along.

Flagging

Commentors are solely responsible for the opinions they express and the accuracy of the information they provide. Users who violate these standards may lose their privileges on TucsonSentinel.com.

Sentinel editors can't read every comment. Trolls, spammers and other troublemakers can slide under the bridge. We rely on you to help maintain a healthy conversation - more than likely, you're reading these comments before the editors.

What if you see something inappropriate? Use the 'Flag' button to send it to a moderation queue. Help us out and tell us why you're reporting it; please don't report someone just because you disagree with them. Boy who cried wolf and all that. We'll take appropriate action on violations.

We will not edit comments to alter their meaning or censor comments because of political content.

We will not remove comments solely because they are heartless, cruel, coarse, foolish or just plain wrong. Your disapproval can maintain a decent signal to noise ratio. Ultimately, however, self-policing is the best method.

Bottom line, don't be a jerk.
