May 14, 2009 NOTE: PLEASE say if you DON'T want your name and/or email address published when sending VDARE email. A CA Nurse Says That, As American Charities’ Resources Shrink, Mexico Must Take Care Of Its Own
From: Bob Cobb (e-mail
him) Late in 2008, I
wrote to
VDARE.COM twice about the shortages in the
Orange County food banks and
chastised the reporters who covered the story for
failing to mention the impact illegal immigration has on
the
charities. Now the crisis has deepened. And while illegal
immigration is still not identified as a contributing
factor, there are very large hints that it plays a major
role. In her May 6th story, Sarah
Tully names two applicants turned away because of
shortages. [Demand
Doubles at Orange County Food Bank, by Sarah
Tully, Orange County Register, May 5, 2009] One is Teresa Martinez whose husband, a painter,
works only two days a week. The other is Maria Hernandez. Her husband is a
landscaper who also works fewer hours than he did in
previous years. According to Hernandez: "I'm sad
because I thought it would be different." What Hernandez means is that she
thought taking jobs from Americans and riding the
social service gravy train would go on forever. America should take care of its own
first. And while I cannot take any pleasure in people
going hungry, Martinez, Hernandez and the other Orange
County illegal aliens (its Hispanic population is
33 percent) are
Mexico’s responsibility.
Cobb works
in the intensive care unit of a major metropolitan
hospital. A previous letter from him opposing organ
transplants for immigrants is
