What percentage of the US Latino population are illegal immigrants?
Bad assumptions will lead to bad results, thus it's vital to start with reliable facts. A good estimate is just under 15% for the year 2014 … and probably 12-13% for 2018... so, where do these numbers come from? The Pew Center has studied several U.S. demographic trends that are relevant to the question and is an excellent source.First, see this: 5 facts about illegal immigration in the U.S.Second, see this: How the U.S. Hispanic population is changingEven though those Pew sources were from 2017, the most complete recent data is older, from 2014. We find 56,000,000 Hispanics in the US for that year. It’s not enough to simply divide the number of illegal immigrants by the total number of Hispanics. One has to determine the proportion of Hispanic and non-Hispanic among the undocumented. That’s not trivial. There were ~110,000 illegal Canadians throughout the decade of 2005-2015... how many illegal Canadians were French-origin and how many were Hispanic? When extracting the number of illegal Europeans, does one include Spain in Hispanics or not?Assuming that broad geographical regions are valid, see this for a geographical breakdown: Unauthorized immigrant population trends for states, birth countries and regions (click on "Region/Country of birth")The numbers are as follows… For 2014, the total illegals in the U.S. were 11.1 million. For the same year, 2014, the country of origin was broadly from Mexico = 5.85, Central America = 1.7, South America = 0.65, Dominican Republic = 0.17. If we assume all of those people were Hispanic, we get 8.37 million Hispanic and 2.73 million everyone else.So, for 2014, if one divides 56 M by 8.37 M, one gets 14.9% or just under 15%. Note that illegal immigration in the US has been steadily declining throughout the Obama years, and the specific level from Mexico declined by an even greater proportion before Trump ever came on the scene. This has been widely reported, but in these data, it is graphically apparent. Meanwhile, the Hispanic population is the fastest growing segment in the U.S. So as a result of these counter-trends, the proportion of Hispanics that are undocumented is estimated by extrapolating the trendlines, arriving at 12–13%.See also these US Census documents on Hispanic demographics:https://www.census.gov/content/d...https://census.gov/content/dam/C...https://www.census.gov/content/d...
How many jobs in America are held by illegal immigrants?
If I walk out on our streets or go to a store whether supermarket, home depot and hear 80%-90% Spanish language, it means lot of invaders are here having jobs or living on welfare which was designed for Americans removed from work by companies moving out of our country because of unlawfully implemented/rised taxes where Federal Reserve Note is not taxable/not permitted to be in circulation according to 18 U.S.C.sect. 8, 12 U.S.C. sect.411, FR Act of 1913 sect.16 and is also a interest free note according to BLD 5th edition because when you read these above you know it is all “Monopoly Money” and H.R. 192 didn’t approve these notes also as lawful currency. If we would have “lawful Money” as United States Notes backed by gold/silver this invasion would not be supported as any other hideous and wasteful programs designed by the subversive Anti-American system. Holding jobs unlawfully also goes back to whoever stepped on our soil unlawfully, expanded their families where their offsprings status was inherited as unlawful/illegal because of the original foreign status of their parents. Amnesties were never approved by Americans and that is why we always have to go back to the original intent. Reminding you all that 14th amendment didn’t give anyone foreign born here U.S. Citizenship, it was designed for freed slaves at that time and for other purposes like governmental jobs for public officials under oath and compensation. How many jobs in America are held by illegals??? Well now we can see it going by tens of millions since first immigration laws were passed by still loyal public officials at that time, we don’t have that these days anymore and that is why I call it “State Sponsored Invasion”.
Why was the u.s. so interested in the security of latin america?
because they are so near us and there has been talk awhile back about lots of people are coming through the borders and they are not just illegal aliens (mexicans) so you know we have to be careful of infiltration
Should the ancestors of "U.S Citizens" who invaded the U.S be called "illegal Immigrants" or "Pilgrims"?
The first Mexicans to become part of the United States never crossed any border. Instead, the border crossed them. Spanish-speaking people have lived in North America since the Spaniards colonized Mexico in the sixteenth century, and Mexicans have always played a crucial role in the continent's culture and history. Mexican culture brought many firsts to North America: The first Thanksgiving took place in either New Mexico or El Paso; the first university in North America was founded in Mexico City; the first printing press on the continent arrived in Mexico in 1538, more than a century before printing came to New England. In 1846, everything changed. War broke out between the U.S. and Mexico over the U.S. annexation of Texas. Mexico was defeated, and in 1848 the two nations signed the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. This treaty gave the victorious nation an enormous amount of land, including what would later become the states of California and Texas, as well as parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Nevada, in exchange for a token payment of $15 million. One more important piece of land changed hands in 1854, when the U.S. bought what is now southern Arizona and New Mexico from the Mexican government for $10 million. This land deal, known as the Gadsden Purchase, brought the U.S. a much-coveted railroad route, and helped open the West to further expansion. With two strokes of a pen, the larger nation had expanded its size by one-third. And almost overnight, tens of thousands of Mexican citizens had become residents of the United States. White people in Unites States descend from English. That will make them immigrants, and they are not from America like mexican or other hispanic people (yes, Hispanics are Americans because they were born in the America continent), they are from Europe. That would make white people even more immigrant that they already are. So, who was here first?
America doesn't owe you anything!?
My mind is made up, there is no legitimate argument for the mexican invasion that has taken place in America. Beyotifool, lost, and braindead; If mexico has problems, its a mexican problem,Not an American problem stop being stupid. What we would lose if there were no mexican criminals in this country is about 12 to 20+ MILLION criminals! and Americans would have more jobs. There is no job an American wont do if payed a livable wage! If all the mexicans are humans, what kind of morals have they been taught, They think its alright to overrun a nation and demand rights and priveleges for being criminals.do your neighbors behave in this manner and do you approve of people with low or no morals? Must be a tough neighborhood. And once again if they are having problems in mexico, tough! It is not an American problem! it is a mexican problem! try to keep up please. America has a problem, can you guess what it might be? Arrogant criminals who demand that America reward them for their criminal behavior. ie Illegal mexicans waving a foreign nations flag and marching through American streets demanding that America grant them equal status, without any allegiance to America! To hell with the stupidity of the mexicans arguments!
Why is Mexico full of illegal immigrants from South America, North America and Central America?
I lived in Mexico for many years. Mexico has one of the most difficult immigration laws in the Americas. It is very very difficult to get a visa for a foreigner to live there and pretty much forget about ever obtaining citizenship. So to say Mexico is full of illegal immigrants would require documentation of that statement.On a side note, in one company I ran in Miami most of our team was at one time an illegal immigrant. Most all came up from Central America through Mexico. To a person they said they were much more worried about crossing into Mexico than crossing into the USA. In the end all were citizens and extremely effective employees.
Why do Americans hate Spanish?
You are misinformed. The Spanish language is not "the most hated one" in the US. On the contrary, nearly 60% of university students studying foreign languages choose to study Spanish. They are not going to choose a language they hate. French and German lag far behind. No parks prohibit the speaking of Spanish. That would be illegal. Soon-to-be-ex-governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's comment, although pedagogically inaccurate and politically indefensible, is irrelevant to your point because he is talking about Latinos, and Latino immigrants do not hate their own language. As for Newt Gingrich's comment, you have misquoted him. In 2007 he said, "We should replace bilingual education with immersion in English so people learn the common language of the country and they learn the language of prosperity, not the language of living in a ghetto." Of course, you must keep in mind that he was pandering to a bigoted audience, the National Federation of Republican Women. But that does not excuse the irresponsibility of his unjustifiable attack. He was also deliberately ignoring the well-documented fact that children learn English better in bilingual education than they do in immersion ("sink or swim") programs. If some people do hate the speakers of Spanish, it is probably due to callous politicians and idiotic judges exploiting racism and using it as a wedge issue.
Why did the United States invade Panama in 1989?
Good question. As it was a surprise invasion done only by President Ronald Reagan on his own authority without prior notice or permission of the US Congress or US public. Surprise to everyone. It took like 1 day. Reagan said it was to remove and capture the US puppet dictator there, Panamanian, Noriega. Who was indeed captured, kidnapped to the US, illegally tried in the US and sentenced to life in prison. Reagan's reason was he found a Latin American dictator, helping the drug cartels (as all of them do since the 1960's). One can only guessed he peed off Reagan bad to merit such punishment.
