In reality this is nothing new. Gringos have lived on the other side for a long time.

A lot of the disabled vets around here end up moving down there because their $1200 a month disability pay gets them nothing here but in TJ they can live a lower middle class lifestyle. Sure, they will have an apartment and an old car but they actually can make ends meet especially if they have a side hustle. If you speak English without an accent you can get some sort of telephone customer service job for $10-$12 an hour.

Again, that isn't a lot but when your rent is $300 a month, utilities are $20, and old is $35 a week? The disability plus that means a decent lifestyle with money left over to eat out or do a bit of traveling. The guy is probably only netting $30k a year all counted but the average Mexican makes maybe $1400 per month so he is easily double that. In California he'd be seen as a poverty stricken failure but there young women would consider him a good catch.

Basic food prices are way cheaper. 1kg onions (about 3lbs) $0.90, 1kg potatoes $1, fresh fruit does seem to be slightly more expensive, Ground beef 1kg $4.50 (about $1.50 a pound), 1kg cheese $4 (around $1.25 per pound), a loaf of bread $0.40, etc...

Also down there you can get a decent 1 bedroom apartment downtown for $300 a month where as the average cost of a 1 bedroom apartment in San Diego is now $2700 per month.

This has been going on for a very long time. Mostly it is Hispanic working poor, retirees, or welfare moochers faking "disability". The wait to get back into the US can often be 3-4 hours long.

The rents are a lot cheaper but crime is much higher. Also young people will have to move when they have kids. Not even Mexicans want their kids to go to schools in Mexico.

I think I saw this on this on the news 30 years ago. So Californians have been doing this for a while.

But you sure see the difference when you cross from San Diego inta Tijuana. Like going from the 1st World inta the 3rd instaneously. Not like going from Canada and Washington state which still feels like the same country.

One thing I notice is I get ill every time I ate a meal in Mexico. I think it contributed to some stomach ulcers I got in California.

It's safer to drink water or have a meal in California than it us in Mexico.

I love Mexico. The food, beaches, mountains, history, people. Mexico has lots of potential

The US is on its last legs.
No, California is on it's last legs
The whole country is.
No. Florida is great. Cost of living is way less than California for sure!!!
You mean real estate is more expensive in popular places to live, when did they start doing that?
I think it's always been that way, but a lot of places that were "popular" also had jobs that would sustain middle class people and tradespeople. That's really what's changed.

We're so flooded with illegals thanks to Bidens administration, there's no going back.

Say... does anyone know where all those undocumented underage children went?
There are thousands of them. No one cares.

He tried and was blocked by his own administration. Treason much. Texas has begun a build the wall campaign of their own. Can't blame them considering the sitting administration opened the gate, turned their heads and walked away too leave the catastrophy in the hands of the people living along the border.

The Govenor there should keep on busing them to Capital Hill, or Martha's Vineyard.
It's ok to let them in, so long as they don't take a dump on demos yards, eh?

the 2500+ missing female immigrant detainees are suspected to have been sold into sexual slavery by border agents and their superiors

What do you mean, huh?

Biden alledgedly had our forces go and get the much needed formula from those withholding it... cause sanctions. Which were set by his administration to begin with.

Are you people that blind?
Only folks suffering from these "sanctions" are citizens of the country proper.
You think Russia is suffering, maybe China?
LMFAO

I'm going with 3 or 4 days

but we might be able to stretch that if pregnant women act now and abort those non human clumps of cells which have been occupying their wombs rent free for the last 7 to 8.5 months
