WASHINGTON -- A new report finds immigrant unemployment (legal and illegal) was higher in the first quarter of 2009 than at any time since 1994, when immigrants were first separated out in the monthly data. This represents a change from the recent past when native-born Americans tended to have higher unemployment rates. The findings show that immigrants have been harder hit by the recession than natives. Although data on immigrants is collected, it is generally not published by the government. This report is one of the few to examine this data.
The report, entitled, 'Trends in Immigrant and Native Employment,' is embargoed until Wednesday midnight, for publication on Thursday, April, 30. Advance copies are available to the media. The study will be available online at: www.cis.org.
Well gee, since they are no longer "doing the jobs Americans won't do", why prey tell aren't they being weened from the tax payers' teet, and being rounded up and deported?
Not nearly as bad as I feel . . . . . Liar, liar pants on fire.
But But if things get worse these poor hard working honest illegals may be forced to self deport. Then us lazy, despicable, greedy, self centered Americans will have to find a way to survive without them. Why I just don't think that its possible. After all they enrich our lives, they provide for us.
But, but, the sky is falling, the sky is falling it hit me on the head . . . *rings hands* whut us gone do now?
We's goin havta learn ha ta do it all by are lonesomes. I know I know. Maybe president Obama will call for a stimulus package to get the illegals to stay???
