100% of U.S. employment growth since 2000 went to immigrants

100% of U.S. employment growth since 2000 went to immigrants. “Government data show that since 2000 all of the net gain in the number of working-age (16 to 65) people holding a job has gone to immigrants (legal and illegal).” Even after several “recovery summers”, the economy is not creating new jobs – so when the Democrats and the RINOs (but we repeat ourselves) demand still more immigration, you gotta wonder what’s up with that…

  • Not to worry, assholes like Gates and Suckburg will continue to pay off the corrupt bastards in DC to keep the cheap labor coming. Plastic Face Pelosi is too poor to afford American born servants.

  • Uh but it's all those jobs that us lazy spoiled Americans don't want to do. Hey here's a thought, maybe the plan is to get ALL the work being done by foreigners, keep jacking up the taxes, and then WE can all go on very generous welfare! Be just like the old days again, ♫ Darkies all work while the white men play♪.

    • Lazy spoiled Americans that are getting welfare for doing NOTHING. Why should they go work for low wages? Cut off the welfare, see if they don't start picking lettuce. And they can strap all the illegitimate kids on their back while they're out in the field.

  • Those supporting immigration are all in favor fewer Americans working and getting paid a fair wage while the employers are hiring all of the illegals to work for a lower rate. When the illegals take their jobs, will the bitch and complain? Will they demand more "benefits" because they can't find a job? Its time to secure the borders. Its time to use E-verifcation. Its time to fine the crap out of a business found hiring illegals knowingly or unknowingly. Its time to make the CEOs and Board of Directors responsible for the actions within their companies. By responsible, jail time and seizure of their personal assists. Make the crime painful to be caught doing.

    For those who show up illegal, send their asses back to where they came from. DNA sample them as they get off the plane. Issue paperwork stating that if they return and are caught they will face execution for being an invader. Within that same paper work include the steps and measures on how to become a US Citizen legally. Show them how not to be exploited by those who wish to exploit them. Setup schools to teach them English and US History.

    • I agree with all of what you say, DT. Except for the papers showing them how to enter legally. Once a person has been caught here illegally, I consider them to be a known felon, and they should never be considered for legal immigration.

      • I agree. Rewarding someone with eventual papers after it has been found that they broke the law (be it civil or criminal... state or federal) is wrong.

  • If there is that damn many stupid people in America unable to understand the assault being waged against our freedoms and liberties I guess they deserve to be ruled over by tyrants.
