[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's happening is that the liberal policies in Maryland are so completely crazy  that they are driving "less crazy" liberals here to Virginia, and they are bringing their liberal policies with them. We now have big pockets of illegal immigrants just a couple of miles away, with related gang activity and assaults. At the same time, we have schools, now rated at 3 and 4, where half the kids don't even speak English. We are spending a fortune to build a large and expensive new homeless shelter, three times as fancy as my college dorm, next to a library. People are arguing that subsidized housing residents shouldn't be forced to live in units smaller than educated professionals enjoy (and pay for) themselves.

Virginia has gone downhill in the 20 years I've lived here, and it's due to the influx of liberals from Maryland. (And some are delusion. The woman waiting in line at the voting booth said we should just give every American $500, and that would solve a lot of problems.)

We have no pockets of illegal immigrants. We have pockets of hispanics, which include legal and undocumented and even US citizens born here.

Yes we have schools with lots of kids who don't yet speak English.  As NYC had when my great grandparents arrived.

Which homeless shelter? What jurisdiction are you in?

You are conflating committed affordable housing with a homeless shelter. Not sure why.

Virginia is doing just fine.

A universal basic income is unlikely to pass in Va, but its actually quite a serious policy idea, though I doubt you have done any research on it.[/quote]

"Undocumented immigrants" = illegal immigrants.  Fixed that for you.

I have a postulation:  The majority of non-english speaking students are illegal immigrants or children of illegal immigrants.  It stands to reason that legal immigrants and citizens, hispanic or not, are much more likely to be capable of speaking english.  If you disagree, provide proof.  Let the government do an investigation of the non-english speaking kids and check their citizenship.  No?  What are you afraid of, Liberal?

Some school districts in northern VA are flooded with these kids.  They can't pass the SOLs.  They drag down our school scores (and property values).  Our tax dollars are being spent on them, our property taxes are going up this year yet again.  I can't send my kid to our public school because I'm not sure that they would pay enough attention to her needs.

There is, of course, the crimes.  Huge amounts of litter alongside the roads.  JBG or whatever that company's called that runs the slums of Culmore, where multiple families live packed into a single unit zoned for 1 family, which causes over-crowding at our schools.

It's unsustainable and spreading.  You "far left" liberals are out of your mind.
