#1 How much if you cut off illegals on the dole?

#2 Tax collections are lower than expected. Could that have anything to do with people leaving the state because they don't wanna pay the crooked morons who run this state?

#3 california budget is about 170Billion

about $13B for corrections
about $55B for health and service
about $50B for primary education

somewhere between 5% and 7% of Calif's population are illegal immigrants but probably a higher percentage than that are receiving health services and education

of course the illegals do pay taxes as part of the state sales tax (which is 7.5% counting the local share)and various other taxes

#4 Typical California Democrats reaction to a (missing money) accounting error of $1.9 ($1,900.000.000) is; Oh Well we will try harder next year! Everyone involved should be fired and all the department heads should be jailed. On top of this California hides the cost of the 10,000,000 illegals California feeds and houses from the taxpayers.

#5 I'm afraid you are delusional. California is reported to have a population of 35,000,000 and about 10,000,000 are illegals. In the central valley where the eco-freaks in government have cut off the water to farms which are now fallow there are now feral zones where the police don't even go.They are 100% Spanish speaking and outsiders are not welcome. The most common vehicle they drive is the Lexus. They supplement their income with cottage industries like growing pot and meth labs.

#6 Alistaire says five to seven percent of Californians are illegal immigrants. I think that's wrong. I think it's much, much more. But I agree with Dopey, anyone who was involved with this "miscalculation" should be fired and investigated for embezzlement, fraud and misappropriation of public funds. But since that would have to include Moonbeam himself it will never happen.

#8 About 35% of the prison population is illegal aliens.
