Study: All Employment Growth Since 2000 Went to Immigrants
NRO ^ | June 26, 2014 | NRO

According to a major new report from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), net employment growth in the United States since 2000 has gone entirely to immigrants, legal and illegal. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, CIS scholars Steven A. Camarota and Karen Zeigler found that there were 127,000 fewer working-age natives holding a job in the first quarter of 2014 than in 2000, while the number of immigrants with a job was 5.7 million above the 2000 level.

The rapidity with which immigrants recovered from the Great Recession, as well as the fact that they held a disproportionate share of jobs relative to their share of population growth before the recession, help to explain their findings, the authors report. In addition, native-born Americans and immigrants were affected differently by the recession.

The facts and stats herein are clear. Illegals are taking away jobs from the legal Mexican Americans who have been here for generations. There are smaller and fewer pieces of pie for the legal Mexican Americas due to the influx of illegals.

This being the case, why for the love of God do they welcome and support illegal immigration? The job an illegal is taking isn’t my job, but rather the job that Pedro (2nd or 3rd generation American) USED to have.

We’ve already been filled in by the foreigners while working. They’re not the ones sponsoring the media and controlling bipartisan politics. It’s international slavery. So is the distraction propaganda effort to pit the slaves against one another.

Many jobs advertised in states with illegal poopulations are requiring that the job seeker be bilingual english/spanish. It’s disgusting too that Oregon has a medical residency program that requires residents to become bilingual within a year or you are dumped from the residency.
We no longer have the luxury of living in an english speaking country.

You know, I can handle that.

At least those immigrants are working and productive. They are here legally.

They are not here with their children and their diseases and there hands out for free sh!t.

Same thing is happening in accounting; Asians are here for the white-collar jobs.

My area is ground zero for this; for years any jobs that involved dealing with the publice required Spanish or Portuguese. Now I’ve seen a couple sprout up that require Ordu or Hindi.

The NYC metro area is no longer part of the US.
