A great many unemployed blacks are unemployed because they have a welfare culture. Bringing in Mexicans won’t change that culture.

Many black men are unemployed because they are in prison.

And no, I do not believe the 26% unemployment figure, not when the overall rate per the BLS is 13%.

I am opposed to raising immigration rates and to amnesty, but I do not believe:

A) That it will seriously affect the black unemployment rate, and

B) That Rubio is a racist, and that his policies are the functional equivalent of Jim Crow.

Coulter is probably trying to help someone like Jeb Bush, and I’m tired of Bushes.

Bring in Mexicans adds to that culture. They are using welfare to a much higher degree than the native born. We are creating a permanent underclass that is more dependent upon big government. And these two groups are the fastest growing in the country.

Many black men are unemployed because they are in prison.

And that skews the data even more. Black Male Unemployment and High School Graduate Rates are Worse Than the Statistics Say

And no, I do not believe the 26% unemployment figure, not when the overall rate per the BLS is 13%.

The 13% is the U-3 rate and it is for 20 and above. Again, go to the links I provided. The BLS figures are not all inclusive. And do you believe unemployment is only 6.7% in this country per BLS? The BLS has very little credibility after they admitted adjusting the figures prior to November 2012.

A) That it will seriously affect the black unemployment rate, and

It has and it will. Blacks are being displaced by immigrants. So are native born whites and minorities. Since 2000 we have added 25.2 million to our workforce, 16.4 million from the native born and 8.8 million from immigration. So who got the jobs?

B) That Rubio is a racist, and that his policies are the functional equivalent of Jim Crow.

Phony strawman. You don't need no stinkin' facts. You would rather rely on emotion and a fantasy world view like the Dems.
