You rightists are a tiring bunch with your hyperbolic, deliberately misleading thread titles such as "Study Finds ALL New Jobs Went to Immigrants " when the linked 'study' says no such thing. Is reading comprehension the problem or do you just seek to make misleading statements for no good reason?

Funny -- my husband just got a new job and so far as I know he's here legally. After 30+ years, that would come as a real shock to us both!

Let's see.

We have one group of leftists, the low-wage types, who are lobbying for higher wages.

Then we have other leftists, the leeches, who want more of welfare-seeking Democratic voters, lobbying for more low-skill immigrants.

Anyone else see the division to be exploited?

The current administration says we need a constant stream of immigrants.
They don't seem to care whether they are legally here or not.

It's in the Dem's favor to have uneducated, unskilled manual labor who will always need that extra government handout to afford their lifestyles here in the US.

You know, it's really telling the kind of crap people read.
do you hate the source, or do you hate the information?

The Title was taken from an 'Unfair', mean, nasty website!

After the first 'whine' came out from one of you leftists, I went and found an article from a 'fairer', less mean and less nasty site with a 'fairer' title .. (Of which I didn't change .. Just to aggravate you!)

Doesn't change the facts though.

Quote:
“All of the net increase in employment went to immigrants in the last 14 years partly because, even before the Great Recession, immigrants were gaining a disproportionate share of jobs relative to their share of population growth,” the report found. “In addition, natives’ losses were somewhat greater during the recession and immigrants have recovered more quickly from it.”
Your crying towel can be put away .. for now!

And that's precisely why it'll never be effectively addressed; the wealthy benefit from it.

So?

Is he factually wrong?

Edison may have been a complete ***, but he was still right about the light bulb.

Laws on top of laws on top of laws governing law abiding citizens.

Our gubbamint has made it so if any citizen stands up and attempts to stop illegals from coming here, they will be arrested and jailed.

These people don't give a damn about our constitution, our language, our culture. They want what they can get. Sucking the juice of life from our country.
