I have a question for you. If the 55 million people who were aborted since 1973 were here, how would we be doing right now?

We would probably have more Americans without jobs assuming that immigration levels remained unchanged. Our population would be nearing 400 million today. In 1970 the population of the US was 203 million, today it is 320 million.

The black population would be almost double what it is today since blacks have a much higher abortion rate than the general population.

Minority women constitute only about 13% of the female population (age 15-44) in the United States, but they underwent approximately 36% of the abortions.

According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, black women are more than 5 times as likely as white women to have an abortion. On average, 1,876 black babies are aborted every day in the United States.

This incidence of abortion has resulted in a tremendous loss of life. It has been estimated that since 1973 Black women have had about 16 million abortions. Michael Novak had calculated "Since the number of current living Blacks (in the U.S.) is 36 million, the missing 16 million represents an enormous loss, for without abortion, America's Black community would now number 52 million persons. It would be 36 percent larger than it is. Abortion has swept through the Black community like a scythe, cutting down every fourth member."

With the black out of wedlock birthrate at 73% and a very high school dropout rate, I would assume that the numbers on welfare would be greater along with crime rates.

Abortion is murder, but would the reality that is America be better off if these abortions had not taken place? That is up to you to decide.

you are correct. It isn’t just lower paying jobs, tech jobs have been going to h1b’s and green card holders for a very long time. I am hanging on at one of the top tech companies where their stated goal is to have 70% of staff outsourced by next year. They are pretty darn close now.

I don’t understand people who want to give their country away.

May their plans collapse upon them, and may they have serious hell to pay.

it could be that they are just sold out for $$$

‘follow the money’

or they could just be self-haters

or they could be mind-warped by false training, teaching, propaganda

or any combination of the above. such as a certain illegal immigrant politico in WashDC today

Irwin Feerst saw this problem in the 1960/70’s. He came within 247 votes of winning the presidency of the IEEE (but lost).

I had cancer, too and was treated at that hospital! Everyone was professional and wonderful. It changed this time.

I know a lot of the big wigs there. I’m going to write them a note about the bad treatment I got. Something has changed for the worse.

Other reports include BLS tables showing numbers for the past few years. The BLS (aided by the U.S. Census) has lots of good information.

to find the tables that other reports include go here

Data Retrieval: Labor Force Statistics (CPS)

HOUSEHOLD DATA Table A-7. Employment status of the civilian population by nativity and sex, not seasonally adjusted [Numbers in thousands]
Employment status and nativity Total Men Women

Then

Scroll down to "Retrieve Data"

In my area foreign workers have replaced Americans (of all colors) in fast-food chains; since they are chains I assume these newcomers are legal. Americans have always worked these jobs, but “replacement Americans” will work them for a lot less. Besides coupling their low salaries with freebies, these foreigners are also content with a much lower standard of living (it is still many steps up from their homelands).

As far as Americans not wanting those jobs, remember the meat-packing plants raided by the INS in the midwest a few years back? When Americans showed up to apply for the jobs the next day, they were asked about Americans not wanting those jobs; several responded that they used to work those jobs until the companies replaced them with illegals...

Some Americans prefer the dole to a low-paying job because the dole pays so well; immigrants ensure that a growing number of jobs become low-paying jobs. I’ve seen plenty of bank teller and deli clerk positions in which the middle-aged and older Americans have been replaced with younger foreigners.

The black birthrate dropped quickly after the 1996 welfare reform; as a result, Hispanics passed them in numbers by 2000 instead of the projected date of 2010.

I work with black women with only the one “golden ticket” bastard necessary to secure freebies; I don’t know that the welfare queens are still popping out five or six anymore.

Abortion hurts the birthrate.

No question; they were targeted by abortion policies.
