Na, we just have to pay for too many bums who come to CA for the higher
welfare and too many illegals who do the same.  We don't get anything out
of them except higher taxes, bums on the streets, ...  And when some try to
make it the law that when people who are on welfare in one state suddenly
find the money to move to CA they should have to collect for one year at
the rate of the state where they came from if it is lower, the liberals all
scream about it.  But when an engineer I know moved to CA for a job and
then the co. he got the job with laid him off because they lost the
contract, that person who moved here to work and was laid off due to no
fault of his own had to collect unemployment at the lower rate provided by
the state from which he moved for the job.  So people who move here to
collect taxpayer money get the better deal while those who are working and
temporarily are without a job get the worse deal.  Something is definitely
wrong.
