Boycott story lacked balance
I was somewhat disappointed in the story about the pending great boycott by Mexicans (both legal and illegal), where it stated the possible loss was going to be up to $15 million.
I thought that to add balance to that story it should also have mentioned how much illegals cost this state. In just the L.A. school district, it is estimated that the illegal immigrant students are costing L.A. County almost $300 million a year and that statewide the illegals are costing this state $10 billion a year. Whatever the "loss" was, due to the boycott, pales in the face of the amounts it costs us as a result of the illegals who are here draining our recourses.
