This hit the Denver Post today:
Undocumented immigrant workers number 140,000 in Colorado, Pew estimates
Did you know?
31% of drywallers in the U.S.
are in the country illegally.
29% of roofers in the U.S.
are in the country illegally.
21% of construction laborers in the U.S.
are in the country illegally.
10% of software developers in the U.S.
are in the country illegally.
"States where undocumented immigrants accounted for the largest share of the workforce were Nevada at
10.4 percent, California at
9 percent and Texas at
8.5 percent. California had 1.7 million undocumented workers, followed by Texas at 1.1 million."
Read that again:
10.4% of the Nevadan workforce is in the country illegally.
9% of the Californian workforce is in the country illegally.
8.5% of the Texan workforce is in the country illegally.
These are massive numbers of "undocumented immigrants" taking millions of jobs away from those looking for work
legally, and it's totally appalling.
"Of the nation’s labor force of 160.4 million, about 83 percent, or 133 million, were born in the U.S.;
19.5 million, or 12 percent, immigrated legally; and
8 million, or 5 percent, were residing in the country illegally."
19.5 million people immigrated LEGALLY.
I'd say it's time to crack down on the
8,000,000 (and counting) who have the nerve to say
Fuck everyone else, I'm doing it my way.
We can't afford them. This country is not a charity.
