Republican Heirarchy Seeks To Neuter Anti Illegal Members
Ayatollah's Note:
I cannot help but point out the simultaneous effort on the open borders lobby side to push the agenda. It's too coincidental to ignore. Quote:

Maybe then for Republicans to compete against the Democrats in California it would be necessary to toss out more freebies than Democrats.
Logic is that people who vote for more taxes will tend to be either people who don't pay taxes or whose lifestyle wouldn't be altered by paying those extra taxes. Again, it is logical that those who receive social services would support politicians who dole out social services. So, who is more likely to receive social services? According to Assemblyman Roy Ashburn in 1997 when times were much better Quote:

Can't help myself, here's a little more of where Republicans have to close ranks with Democrats in California:

Hence the Democratic vote.

I believe I did it right to arrive at a welfare figure of approximately $162.47 per person in Los Angeles county at an estimated 2009 population figure of 9848011 with a $1600000000.00 cost. http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/06/06037.html
Housing units 2009 3,390,795 Approximately $471.87 per household. The questions to me are: How may individuals are Taxpayers? Children, welfare recipients, people who work for cash, non working spouses or "household partners" and those running criminal enterprises generally do not pay income taxes. What is the tax burden of this welfare per tax paying individual in Los Angeles County? How much money is diverted around sales and other taxes? Thinking out loud... The welfare cost burden per person divided into household welfare burden figure is 2.9 people per household, and population divided by household comes to 2.9 per household. Hmmmmm. Somehow, this doesn't sound right. LA County's 2010 - 2011 budget is 23.175 Billion. http://file.lacounty.gov/lac/cms1_151209.pdf Of this: Social Services 24% Health 22% Public protection 20% Special funds / district 23% Other 11% LA County's income / Resources 23.175 Billion Property taxes 20% Federal assistance 22% State assistance 22% Other 36% 1.6 billion for direct welfare costs according to Antonovich equals almost 7% of the total budget. Per household share of both budget and resources equals $6834.68. Locally generated revenue is only $6.034 Billion, less than 27% of the budget. Social services and health alone are 64% of the budget. WOW.
