The rates of ignorance, racism, and xenophobia in this thread are reaching epic proportions.

Sarah, if you live in New York City and you still hold those views, you must be quite unhappy or very old. Perhaps certain regions of the Southeast would suit your worldview better. The weather is fantastic, by U.S. standards, though cities like Atlanta, Savannah and Charleston might not suit you, as they have become quite diverse. (You might love Tallapoosa, Alabama, though.)

Border Fence Firm Snared for Hiring Illegal Workers : NPR

Philadelphia Businesses Fined For Hiring Illegal Immigrant Workers - Other Employment Law Issues - Philadelphia Employment Law News

multiple incidents showing companies still hiring illegal workers:
ICE: Few firms fined for hiring illegal workers

So, clearly there are still multiple LARGE business' continuing to hire illegal labor. Including those who are servicing contracts w/ security and sensitive customers/sites.

Yes, they're up to 1.5% of the population here. Why at that rate we'll be overrun by . . .

Never mind.

Can't fix stupid.

It looks like we are well on your way.

The irony here is the economy in places like Brazil, Colombia and other South American countries are growing and their middle class is increasing.
Booming while we slowly die...

I couldn't possibly care less. Whites have been the majority all of my life and i've done ok. Don't see why more Hispanics would make any difference. Well, at least not to me it doesn't.
