As a result, the unemployment rate of Mexican immigrants in the US grew from roughly eight percent to 12 percent.

The US is home to 12 million Mexicans, about half of them illegal immigrants.

That means the unemployment number must be higher then what the Government releases...

I think this figure is totally bogus. For years, in So Cal, during the 70’s & 80’s, the number was called at 20 million. More came- few went home, and I am not even counting the ‘anchor babies’, which is another problem altogether. For all the activity over the past 30+++ years, the number of illegals is much closer to 50 million, IMO.

The unemployment number is a total crock when the ‘NObama’ administration gives us the numbers.

It is much higher....

I also do NOT believe the GDP for the last quarter was 5.7%.

That number will get ‘corrected’ a couple of times, lower and then lower still, and we will never get that information from the mediawholovesNObama group. Only Fox might tell us the truth.

What a bunch of bogus numbers. No way, they have been throwing those numbers at us for the past 10 years. There are more like 30 million illegals in this country. Those are all made up numbers. Poor as compared to what? Compared to other Mexicans even the dead are wealthy.
