The Dems don’t learn from the old Arab fable which talks about, “a camel who seeks refuge in a tent during a sandstorm. The camel convinces the owner of the tent to let him put his nose inside for shelter, but soon after he manages to get his entire body inside, pushing out the owner and taking over the space.”
This is the situation that we find ourselves in regarding treatment of illegal aliens, those who come across our border to get the freebies the Left promises. First, it was simply not to enforce our border laws, laws most countries work hard to enforce. Then, we began offering them food, water, health care, transportation and hotel rooms. While too many were complaining about the quality of their free food and expensive hotel rooms, the Left felt we weren’t doing enough to “help” them, meanwhile ignoring the plight of so many citizens who needed our support. Citizens should come first. Doesn’t that make sense?
The latest (not yet signed by CA Governor Nuisance) is to give $150K interest-free home loans to illegal immigrants. Our almost totally Blue legislature had previously created the Home Purchase Assistance Program which offered the same amount to some first-time home buyers for their down payment. Not surprisingly, no Republicans voted for this bill. Where does the money come from in a state that is broke (and in debt)? How many citizens and legal immigrants will miss out on this opportunity when the money goes to illegals? What happens when there is a default? The buyer has no personal stake in it.
The proposal was introduced by Democrat Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula, who said the proposal would help attract people with a good credit score. However, how many would actually have a good credit score? And if they didn’t, do you believe the state would deny the illegals anything? They haven’t so far. It’s clear this will only attract more people to break our laws and come here, as they are being treated the same or even better than our citizens. No government should normalize the breaking of laws, although CA has been a leader in this by letting people steal up to $950 worth of merchandise per store. If you read our news, you know how well that’s working out.
“It’s a slap in the face to legal immigrants when we incentivize the breaking of our laws and the normalizing of being in this country unlawfully,” said Assemblymember Bill Essayli (R). “We need to close our border. This is a problem of our own making. We have made the borders wide open, millions of people are coming over and now the state of California is creating a huge incentive for those who came here illegally to come to California.”
Why Do You Care?
If you live in a Blue state, you know how many follow California’s lead. This will cause many to raise taxes. It also means more pressure will be put even on Red states to follow suit. We owe these people nothing, not even a bottle of water. We don’t give anything to legal immigrants; why are we bending over backwards to treat illegals as more important than our own people? It’s time things change. I hope Nuisance doesn’t sign it, but he has had a track record of doing the wrong thing, especially with “other peoples’ money.”
Time to vote these idiots out.
Vote them out is the answer but probably won’t happen. By the time they realize the impact of the damage it’ll be too late.
