LA Anchor Baby Welfare Tab…$600 Million

Welfare benefits for the children of illegal immigrants cost America’s largest county more than $600 million last year, according to a local official keeping tabs on the cost.

Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael Antonovich released new statistics this week showing social spending for those families in his county rose to $53 million in November, putting the county government on track to spend more than $600 million on related costs for the year — up from $570 million in 2009.

Antonovich arrived at the estimate by factoring in the cost of food stamps and welfare-style benefits through a state program known as CalWORKS. Combined with public safety costs and health care costs, the official claimed the “total cost for illegal immigrants to county taxpayers” was more than $1.6 billion in 2010.

“Not including the hundreds of millions of dollars for education,” he said in a statement.

Okay here goes my opinion on the matter and let me say first that I’m not a racist, my gardener is an illegal… Okay that was bad,… Deal with it.

California has a HUGE deficit, a HUGE part of the reason is the ANCHOR Babies that are growing up, using our education and health services as well as collecting state aid for daily rations…NOT all of them mind you but enough that the input is far far outweighed by the output of state funds.

At work the other day a bunch of us had a great discussion about the “Illegal Immigrant” issue. And let me preface this by saying there were four folks there of latino/hispanic decent, one person who was darker than I….All of us are Americans now.

The amount of disinformation out there is astounding. It came to our discussion and since I am the internet hound, I had to debunk a lot of the “Assumptions” of a couple of them. Our discussion began with one of the latino ladies saying something about California’s deficit and another person was reading about the Shooting incident in Texas where the road workers were shot at from the Mexico side.

I know for a fact that a couple of them have family in Mexico, and it was very difficult to temper my words during the discussion. But after a few minutes I realized that we were basically in agreement about the Illegal issue. One thing that kept coming up was “What are they supposed to do, there are no jobs in Mexico and the schools are poor etc. etc.” This was my opening:

My point really was made by this statement: What is happening to Mexico now, is a direct result of the illegal immigration issue here. Mexico’s labor force is leaving, and they are not the morons of the nation, they are the smart ones that have figured out how to do it. So what is left in Mexico? Former Military, Police, Politicians and sheep. Many folks think the Illegal Immigration issue here is the end of the story, it’s not. Yes it hurts our country, YES it’s costing billions of dollars to take in the Illegals into our system but there is a large amount of damage being done to the Mexican nation. They come here, have AMERICAN babies and some grow up to do WELL, open businesses and thrive. They become producers which helps OUR economy, it doesn’t help Mexico.
