How the Obama immigration policy will affect black unemployment

I get a lot of flack from people regarding my lack of regard for El Presidente Obama. Some of it is good natured ribbing. Some of it is downright nasty. I actually hate that I couldn't be a part of the euphoria that was the First Blackish President.

I have no allegiance to White America, Black America or any other hyphenated class or socioeconomic status. I am conservative minded but I am no Republican. I just know enough history, enough policy, and enough reality to not be pulled into the fold.

So now we are faced with immigration. Those on the left say "you just hate Mexicans" if you are against it. They say you just hate it because Obama is black. So on and so forth. There are a few things that bewilder me about the whole issue. But for those that meet my ideological perception with ire please allow me to drop this on you.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics(BLR)
Unemployment Rates
Black 13.1%
Hispanic 9.1%

Employed
Hispanic 22 Million
Black 16 Million

Non Institutional Population (All the people not in jail and old enough to work)
Hispanic 37 Million
Black 30 Million

So looking at the numbers, both races are struggling in the jobs market. However, Hispanics already have a decided edge. in employable population, employed population, and percentage unemployed.

Think of adding 5 million, 10 million, maybe even 20 million more Hispanics to these numbers. Sure you can say a large portion of them are children. Ok, but considering 1 our of every 5 black babies is aborted (52 million since 1976) these immigrant children are still imposing when it comes to workforce numbers.

To put it bluntly, Barack H Obama is about to drop on nuclear bomb on blacks as far as employment goes and he knows it. Blacks will feel it from top to bottom. From the job search to the welfare office. You try getting an appointment for food stamps after he finishes with immigration. Better learn how to speak Spanish.

Of course most blacks are not paying any attention to this. We are butt hurt over a kid picking a fight with a man with a gun. We have NO CLUE the smack down that is not only coming for us be also for our children. There are only so many scholarships, only so many jobs, and our president is literally stacking the deck against blacks with this immigration.

Fomenting insurrection in Ferguson?  Seriously that's a good question.  It's probably just my basic bias, but I would hire a Hispanic before members of certain other ethnic groups if I were in a business that used low wage labor.  At some point when they realize this, the Jacksons and Sharptons will be focusing their rage on the Latino community.
It's the Supreme Court nominations!
