I see the state has decided to pass out 1.75 million bucks to help the farmworkers pay their bills due to layoffs after the "Big Freeze". I suppose it's a compassionate thing to do, but when I(along with many others)got laid off in 1980 when work ran out on the RR, nobody offered to pay MY bills! I got my $525 a month in unemployment, but it wasn't enough to get by, so I went out and got a job. Why can't these people do the same? According to the do-gooders who support them, there are plenty of jobs white folks won't do. What about the thousands of auto workes laid off in the last few years whos plants will NEVER reopen(as opposed to crops that will come in in a few months)? Is anyone doing anything for them? It shouldn't matter why a large number of people are laid off, the fact is that they were. I say "help one, help all or just don't help anyone at all". Unemployed is unemployed and dire straits are dire straits. It looks to me like Arnold and the state legislators are pandering to the latin vote at the taxpayers expense.
