So, why am I in disbelief? It’s because of some stats provided by the Governator: Out of 170,000 inmates in California’s prison system, more than 20,000 are undocumented workers illegal aliens. Don’t liberals always say that undocumented workers illegal aliens come here to earn an honest living (after trespassing of course), and that they contribute more financially than what they cost? Well, these numbers seem to fly in the face of their reasoning.

Since 12% of California’s prison population consists of undocumented workers illegal aliens, wouldn’t Californians be $1 billion better off if the illegals were prevented from coming here, or deported soon after being discovered? Of course, $1 billion is just the tip of the iceberg. What about court costs, legal aid, and the indirect costs associated with their crimes? The United States has its fair share of criminals. We don’t need to have any more imported from abroad.

A recent study found that undocumented workers illegal aliens cost the state of California more than $9 billion each year. This number is considered “a bottom range number.” Basically, if there were no undocumented workers illegal aliens, California’s $19 billion deficit would be more than cut in half. Shouldn’t this be obvious to more people?

Now, back to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s plan to reduce prison costs by building prisons in Mexico. There are some aspects I like, and some I don’t. I believe they should be sent back to Mexico, but not at taxpayer expense. Why not deport them and protect the border like we should have been all along?
