    A governor of a state is going to take 75 million tax dollars and spend it on foreigners. A majority who pay nothing into the system and as a group are already a huge drain on the system. Californians have a right to be pissed.

    If you bothered to look at the numbers (lol yeah right) you'd see that illegal immigrants are a net gain for government resources. They contribute more than they take in.

    Now that doesn't mean that CA further sinking into debt to give a hand out to them is sound policy, so don't twist.
    See that part.

    That's a problem.

    By your logic, the Cartels' meth and heroin dealers are putting money into the economy, too....so, hey, go for it.

    The problem with this is there are just as many studies that show illegals as a drain, as there are that show them as a net addition. It all depends on the political philosophy of the author it appears.

    edit: I looked at this via the googlebots for 10 minutes, so if there exists a true fair impartial (our government is not fair nor impartial) study bu a neutral party I'd be interested in seeing their conclusions.

    California has a 7.25% sales tax so I would say almost all of them pay into the system. Once again Alt lies.

    And I'd say not of dime of those taxes cover money coming from the Federal government. Nice work dumbfuck.
    And I'd say some of that money goes into building a road or paying a government official who pays some of that in Federal taxes so fuck off.
    And you'd be talking out your ass as usual. This is money coming from the Federal government. You being a dumbfuck think that because they pay a state sales tax that somehow covers money coming from Federal taxes.

    Eh but by that measure the whole point of the left claiming this (which is empathy and compassion) is invalid because they don't care if it screws over citizens

    You're correct, that was an oversight on my part. While immigrants as a whole are a net fiscal benefit, illegal immigrants are undoubtedly a drain. That was a moment of fucktardedness for me to conflate the two. Must have been all that chloroquine I've been chugging.

    A mea culpa to @Bendintheriver (that hurts to type)

    Years ago, long before Kali went sanctuary, the cost of illegals to the state of Kali was 5 billion a year. It's probably double that now.

    They suck the whole system dry. That's a fact Jack!
