Protesters Gather Outside Of Immigration Court On Gateway Blvd. In Concord

The truth is that we cannot support the world. California has a deficit and is giving anyone (even unvetted criminals and terrorists) entering our state free food, money, medical insurance, and phones. I have lived in California and paid taxes here all my life. I am and having a difficult time making ends meet. The governor said he was not going to give illegal aliens free health care. This is because he wants to charge them $100 a month. I wish I could pay that for health insurance. This is supposed to be a democratic republic not communism or worse yet Marxism. I cannot get any of the above benefits and yet I am forced to pay for them. Our governor raised gas taxes by over .$.80 per gallon at the beginning of the year. The governor has wasted billions of dollars on a train that goes no where, environmental regulations that have done nothing for global warming, and establishing a state insurance program for homeowners that was so poorly funded we will all be paying for it in perpetuity. We can’t send water to L.A. because we don’t want to kill smelt fish, but we can let people die and their homes be destroyed. We can’t clean out brush on public lands because it provides homes for small animals. It is so much better to let them burn to death. California ranks 38th in math and 33rd in reading out of 50 states. Less than 50% of the students can read proficiently. Billions of dollars have been thrown at the homeless problem and still no solutions. Now a new bill proposes to sell more of our energy, oil production etc.to Coutries like China (so the state can make more money undoubtedly). China is one of the two worst if not the biggest polluter in the world. Meanwhile we endure brown outs and are told to turn off anything that takes electricity in the evenings. When there were fires close by there were brown outs. Some people were told to get ready to leave. I understood if their cars were not charged some people could not leave. The Governor brags about the incarcerated population decreasing, but never says why. Our governor in an effort to reduce the prison populations has closed several prisons and arranged for early release of prisoners onto the streets. He does not have to worry about security. Personally I have had young men who were in my driveway trying to steal my car 2 times. The last time there were 4 of them. The police officer told me they generally take this type of car across the border and sell it for parts. I was also warned not to go outside,
as they generally carry guns. I had to pay for the damage (as it was under the rather high deductble) both times and the thieves had no consequences. The police chased them the last time but they listen to the police calls and got away. Since the state voting was re-districted the state has been contolled by 1 party and voting cannot fix that easily unless we get more people that don’t just vote along party lines.
