How Illegal Immigration Destroyed America's Economy Add to that the 140,000 visa workers per month, every month, for a whole decade, and there's another 16.8 million qualified American workers replaced by less qualified, but cheaper imported workers.

The flow of imported workers has slowed slightly to 120,000 or 130,000 per month, but the bleeding of the US carcass continues.

Very true. I tried to touch briefly on the issue, without having to go on a long tangent explaining this. The irony is how much criticism I’ve collected from people who accused me of being “rambling” because I did try to acknowledge multiple causes, while others attacked me for not devoting sufficient emphasis to their pet cause. But I did try to touch on the additional issue of “quasi-legal” immigration, that is, immigration fueled by other illegal immigration. To elaborate, this includes

1. Workers brought in on Visas created to fill critical job shortages, when there are, in fact, plenty of Americans to take those jobs.

2. Aliens who had been illegal, but have now been granted amnesties.

3. “Anchor” babies, that is, children of illegal aliens who are automatically granted citizenship despite their parents’ illegal presence.

4. Relatives of such groups who have benefitted from chain migration laws to be given immigration eligibility.
