So how could you possibly implement socialism without stepping on the Constitution?

It's funny you mention liberty for the individual. Isn't that what most Americans want?

Just to reiterate..............
Did the bill pass?
The bill was initially approved by the education and appropriations committees, allowing for a vote on the Assembly floor. According to the Daily Caller, the bill was read three times on Thursday, finally failing in a vote of 27-22.
Santiago has already submitted a measure to reconsider the legislation.
..... 27-22 think about that just for a moment and tell me i'm wrong that a socialist/communist agenda isnt being pushed for ? is this the guy that had a tee-shirt espousing open borders or was that someone else?

The libertarian perspective on immigration is often regarded as one of the core concepts of libertarian theory and philosophy.[1][2] Some libertarians assert that "[e]fforts by the government to manage the labor market are as apt to fail as similar efforts to protect domestic industries or orchestrate industrial policy. [...] If an immigrant seeks to engage in peaceful, voluntary transactions that do not threaten the freedom or security of the native-born, the government should not interfere".
I am an independent who leans libertarian, with a bleeding heart.
A I would never try to charge my neighbor a fee for borrowing tools when she needs to change the oil in her car. Nor would I ask the young couple down the road to repay money with interest when things get tight for them at the end of the month. Just as our neighbors have given us cooking ingredients (needed sugar for coffee once) or offered to grab us groceries while they were heading in to the super market (we are getting old)
In a way, our entire road is a self sustaining community. From collective defense (sharing cameras, "neighborhood" watch, etc) to anything else. It is this type of close-knit community that would be most viable, at least in my personal opinion, for socialist-type policies
In my view, this works for us so well because we are all invested in each other's successes and failures.
