Then immigrants know all the tricks. That is part of the problem here in California. I am not anti-immigrant at all, but when they know exactly what kind of car you need to qualify for section 8, food stamps, etc., you know its bad.

Here's waht gets me. We spend so much time, effort and money prosecuting petty fraud while ignoring the elephant in the room - trillions in financial fraud.
