Illegal Immigration Hurts Black Workers Most

Official estimates suggest that over 1 million people will illegally migrate into America in 2019.  The Democrats welcome them with open arms -- they have even offered to give them "free" healthcare.

In doing so they betray their most stalwart voters: black Americans.  How?  Illegal migrants compete directly with black Americans for jobs, causing unemployment and decreasing wages.

Before discussing the economic impact of illegal immigration, how many aliens live in America?

At the Hot Gates

Pew Research suggests that some 11.1 million illegals reside within our borders.  Although this falls in line with figures from the Department of Homeland Security, many believe the true figure is much higher.  Why?  Two reasons.

First, the "official" figures do not include the children of illegal immigrants who were born in America -- so called "anchor babies."  Although they are natural-born citizens, these individuals are only here because of their parent's criminal activity. 

Can Americans blame anchor babies for their parent's actions?  No.  But there is no denying that the addition of 6.5 million additional children is a burden on America's welfare state -- especially since their parents contributed nothing towards its creation, and little towards its maintenance.

Second, the official aggregate figures suspiciously plateau in 2007.  The explanation is that after 2008 the number of migrants fell and deportations rose to an equilibrium point.  However, there is little evidence that migration rates fell, and the reason deportations increased is because the Obama administration simply changed the definition of "deportation" to inflate the numbers.

If the official figures are flawed, then just how many illegal aliens reside in America?

Not sure Dems care about the working class black vote.

Labour in the Uk
The list is endless.
The working class have and will remain canon fodder.

It is RACIST to impose SLAVE WAGES on LEGAL immigrants and minorities by importing cheap, ILLEGAL LABOR.

Obama made blacks into second class minorities. I doubt he even realized it. The Left no longer really sees blacks as their primary weapon in destroying the white population. BLM was about the last, dying gasp of that strategy. They have moved on to la raza.

Sure it does. Keeps them out of entry level positions where they gain experience and can be promoted.

[Blood of Tyrants]

They don’t have to actually care about blacks because they get 95% of their vote anyway.

The Democrats welcome them with open arms —

Some of those Democrats are wearing R jerseys to fool people.

Two of them are Flimsey Grahamnesty and Micro Rubio.

Illegals also compete for housing, driving up rents.

No one wants to talk about this, I guess Landlords have influence in both parties.

I think everyone is starting to realize the Democrats are really hurting the AA communities with their policies.Benefits and jobs can only be spread so thin between all The races.

Democrats? The Chamber of Commerce Republicans loves them some cheap wetback labor.

We need to enact The List of Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement.

The List goes like this -

1) southern barrier;
2) require eVerify to hire;
3) end all chain migration;
4) birthright per Minor v. Happersett (plural parents);
5) end work visas;
6) 10-year moratorium on all new applications for citizenship (40 years to allow workplace automation effects on downsizing population);
7) Set up an illegal aliens’ victim restitution fund.

Enactment of these provisions will motivate illegal aliens to SELF-deport.

Also consider reciprocation of the laws of the countries of origin of the illegal aliens. For example, Mexico doesn’t allow land ownership or voting to immigrants, and doesn’t honor birthright citizenship like its citizens expect from the U.S. We should offer the same deal to them.

Illegals take blue collar jobs period.

I can speak from my 3-4 decades of working on large industrial construction projects. The black population has been virtually wiped out from all crafts. I look around at our safety lunches and did not see a black face this week.

That’s why Democrats like it.
