Illegal US immigrants far likelier to be working than American men

[Subyman]

Talk about grossly simplification.

You "forgot" to mention these "minor" problems with ILLEGALS:

As I said before, if ILLEGALS are such HUGE benefits, then why other nations do not jump in and scoop them up? They must be so stupid and do not know any better than you guys pro ILLEGALS, eh?

You talk gross simplification and then provide anecdotes as your evidence? LOL

Immigrants are typically less likely to commit a crime than American citizens:

It also holds true in states with large populations of illegal residents. A 2008 report by the Public Policy Institute of California found that immigrants are underrepresented in the prison system. “The incarceration rate for foreign-born adults is 297 per 100,000 in the population, compared [with] 813 per 100,000 for U.S.-born adults

Anecdotes? Links from Pew and NBC for the whole US are anecdotes? LOL.

Is this anecdote to you? =

Hispanic gang violence is spreading across the country, the sign of a new underclass in the making.

Did I say ILLEGALS are likely to commit crime than US citizens? NOPE. LOL.

Oh, and this one: (funny how bitek and ILLEGALS supporters "forgot" to mention these FACTS)

Q: Does the IRS pay billions in tax refunds to workers who are in the U.S. illegally?
A: Yes. The Treasury Department’s Inspector General determined that $4.2 billion was paid in 2010, up from less than $1 billion in 2005. Leading Democrats are resisting a bill that would stop future payments.

and

This analysis has shown that the costs of providing Medicaid to legalized illegal immigrants would be substantial... Nonetheless, we still estimate that covering just 3.1 million uninsured illegal immigrants with the lowest incomes would cost $8.1 billion annually. This estimate does not include the extra costs of the illegal immigrants whose incomes would qualify them for the new affordability credits under health reform.

and

$40 billion: The annual cost of educating illegals and their offspring in this country, according to the Center for Immigration Studies.

Do these BILLIONS and BILLIONS of cost for ILLEGALS look "beneficial" to the US or "anecdotes" to you? LOL.

This is what I am saying: we have enough of our own problems, we DO NOT need to import even more problems and pretend ILLEGALS are such huge benefits (see links above) to the the US. I never say ZERO immigration. I am fine with LEGAL immigration but NOT ILLEGAL. Funny why you or any pro ILLEGALS would dare to answer my question about if ILLEGALS are such huge benefits, then why no one (sovereign nation) is jumping in to scoop them up? LOL.

And this one too, funny why no pro ILLEGALS wants to answer this:

But we can not do another amnesty for those that were here ILLEGALLY. If we do that, is it fair for those that wait and wait? And why even bother to have a border and immigration law if we keep handing out amnesty after amnesty?

Try again.

I don't believe it has gone from 25% to 80% in only 8 years. I think you probably misheard the number in the past. 80% are foreign born and crossed a border to get here. 60% are undocumented. As you can see, that is a huge number. Why are they so overrepresented in the farm work category? Probably because it is low skill, arduous labor that only an exploitable class would want to do. Americans will do farm labor, but they want to drive the combine not pick 5000lbs of tomatoes a day

That labor force is Too Big to Deport (TM)

You did happen to catch the fact that farming is only a small part of this, right?

And like I said... if it really has gone from 75% of farmwork done by Americans to 20% in just 8 years...

... you don't think Big Agribusiness isn't laughing its ass off at you for pulling off a shift in labor like that and having you remain blind to it?

Were we all starving back in 2008 or something?

Would a labor shift like that be about making stuff affordable for you... or GROSS profits?
