My next economics newsletter,
will be the March April 2019
ECONOMIC LOGIC,
published roughly March 15,
and will have a feature article
on immigration.
The following
anonymous article
discusses the
many benefits
that attract
illegal immigrants
to the "sanctuary state"
of California.
I'm confident the writer
knows what he, or she,
is talking about.
In the 42 years
I've written an
economics
newsletter,
as a hobby
newsletter,
as a hobby
I've never used
an anonymous source
for the newsletter,
but I still wanted
to share this material
with you, on the EL blog:

School Teacher

This was shared on Facebook
by a California English teacher...
"As you listen to the news
about the student protests
over illegal immigration,
there are some things
that you should be
aware of:
I am in charge of the English-as
-a-second-language department
at a large southern California
high school which is designated
a Title-1 school, meaning that
its students average
in the lower socio-economic
and income levels.
Most of the schools
you are hearing about
are Compton, South Gate High,
Bell Gardens, Huntington Park,
etc., where their students
are protesting
– these are also Title-1 schools.
Title-1 schools are on
the free-breakfast
and free-lunch program.
When I say free breakfast,
I’m not talking about
a glass of milk and a roll.
But a full breakfast
and cereal bar
with fruits and juices
that would make
the Marriott proud.
The waste of this food
is monumental, with trays
and trays of it being dumped
in the trash uneaten.
(Our tax dollars at work!)
I estimate that well over 50%
of these students are obese
or at least moderately overweight.
About 75% or more
have cell phones.
The school also provides
day care centers for
the unwed teenage
pregnant girls
(some as young as 13)
so they can attend class
without the inconvenience
of having to arrange
for babysitters
or having family
watch their kids
(More of our
tax dollars
at work!)
I was ordered to spend
$700,000 on my department,
or risk losing funding
for the upcoming year
even though there was
little need for anything.
My budget
was already substantial,
but I ended up buying
new computers for the
Computer Learning Center,
half of which, one month later,
were carved with graffiti
by the appreciative students
who obviously feel humbled
and grateful to have
a free education in America.
(More and more of our
tax dollars at work!)
I have had to intervene
several times for young
substitute teachers
whose classes
consist of many
illegal immigrant students
here in the country
less than 3 months,
who raised so much hell
with the female teachers,
calling them putas (whores)
and throwing things,
that the teachers
were in tears.
Free medical care,
free education,
free food,
free day care,
etc., etc., etc.
Is it any wonder
they feel entitled
not only to be in this country,
but also to demand rights,
privileges and entitlements?
To those who want to
point out how much
these illegal immigrants
contribute to our society,
because they happen to like
their gardener
and/or housekeeper,
and they like to
pay less for tomatoes,
I say:
Spend some time
in the real world
of illegal immigration
and see the true costs.
Higher insurance,
medical facilities closing,
higher medical costs,
more crime,
lower standards
of education
in our schools,
overcrowding,
new diseases,
etc., etc., etc.
For me, I’ll pay more
for tomatoes.
Americans, we need to wake up.
The guest worker program
will be a disaster
because we won’t
have the guts
to enforce it.
Does anyone
in their right mind
really think
they will voluntarily
leave and return?
It does, however,
have everything
to do with culture:
A third-world culture
that does not
value education,
that accepts children
getting pregnant
and dropping
out of school
by age 15,
and that refuses
to assimilate,
plus an American culture
that has become so weak
and worried about
“political correctness”,
that we don’t have
the will to do
what is needed.
If this
makes your blood boil,
as it did mine,
forward this
to everyone you know
including your
Congressman
and Senators.
Cheap labor?
Isn’t that what the
whole immigration issue
is about?
Business doesn’t want
to pay a decent wage.
Consumers don’t want
expensive produce.
Government will tell you
“Americans don’t want the jobs”.
But the bottom line is cheap labor.
The phrase “cheap labor”
is a myth, a farce, and a lie.
There is no such thing
as “cheap labor”.
Take, for example,
an illegal alien with a wife
and five children.
He takes a job
for $5.00 or $6.00/hour.
At that wage,
with six dependents,
he pays no income tax,
yet at the end of the year,
if he files an income tax return,
he gets an “earned income credit”
of up to $3,200 free.
Also...
1
- He qualifies for
Section-8 housing
and subsidized rent;
2
- He qualifies for
food stamps;
3
- He qualifies for free
(no deductible, no co-pay)
health care;
4
- His children get
free breakfasts
and lunches at school;
5
- He requires bilingual
teachers and books;
6
- He qualifies for relief
from high energy bills;
7
- If they are,
or become aged,
blind or disabled,
they qualify for SSI;
8
- Once qualified for SSI
they can qualify for Medicare
(All of this at taxpayer’s
{our} expense);
9
- He doesn’t worry
about car insurance,
life insurance, or
homeowner’s insurance;
10
- Taxpayers provide
Spanish language signs,
bulletins and printed material;
11
- He and his family
receive the equivalent of
$20.00 to $30.00/hour
in benefits;
12
- Working Americans
are lucky to have
$5.00 or $6.00/hour
left after paying
their bills and his;
13
- The American taxpayers
also pays for increased crime,
graffiti and trash clean-up.
14
- Free Child Care
(i.e., free babysitting)
from 6 AM – 6 PM
15
- Free ‘mommy makeovers’
after having their children
( includes: tummy tuck
and breast lift)
Cheap labor?
Yeah right!
Wake up people!
These are the questions
we should be
addressing to the
Presidential candidates
for either party.
We must take action
or we will all go
down the drain
because a few don’t care.
And if you think this is bad,
just wait until a Democrat
becomes President and the
redistribution of wealth
becomes the norm
in this ex-Democracy. "
