The streets of Los Angeles were filled yesterday with an estimated 1,000,000 legal and illegal Latino protesters. They were sending a message to our Congress which has different pending legislation concerning illegal residents.
Some years ago there was another 1,000,000 man march in Washington, D.C. This protest was made up of mainly African-Americans citizens. They were complaining about Civil Rights issues. They wanted more help from the government. Different goals than the Latino march but they were subtly tied together. Predictably the Latino protestors want the least government intervention. But the legal African-Americans protestors wanted more government intervention in the form of costly assistance programs and affirmative action.
The recent U.S. Census showed a higher unemployment rate among African-Americans versus a lower unemployment rate for Latinos. What is the conclusion to be drawn from both the marches and the Census figures? It implies that there is a direct correlation between African-Americans who are on welfare and unemployed to the influx of legal and illegal Mexicans who will do any work.
America really doesn't need " new" immigration legislation America only needs to force people who receive welfare assistance to work.With that change in welfare distribution, the result will include less illegal immigrants doing jobs our legals wont do. One law that should definitely be removed from the books is the automatic citizenship granted to people born in America even if they are children of illegal aliens.
