Cost of Illegal Immigration in Colorado
Since we are a "balanced budget" state--and we have Tabor laws restricting state government from raising taxes--unless we vote for them--CUTS will be made to meet our budget. Education--Medicade--and other govenment services that provide to our legal citizens--is being taken up by illegals in this state.
So my final point is: If you don't mind sacrificing education--Medicade and other programs and paying out 1.1 BILLION dollars on average per year for illegals--then go ahead and vote for Hickenlooper. Because he's not going to do anything about it.
If it bothers you that you are paying 1.1 BILLION dollars on average per year for illegals--then you probably should vote for Tom Tancredo.
