New report: 54% of migrants who have arrived since 2022 do not have jobs
By Olivia Murray
So much for the “boosting the economy” schtick.
Yesterday, the Center for Immigration Studies published the findings of a new report on the “largest two-year increase ever recorded” for the foreign-born population of people living in the United States—between March 2022 and March 2024, that number jumped by 5.1 million people.
And, of those 5.1 million people, more than half (54%) are not paying their own way; this works out to be around 2,754,000 million people. The CIS stresses that those numbers include both legal and illegal persons, and while legality is certainly a concern, it’s not a justification for bringing in third world hoodlums from all the dark corners of the world with zero intention to assimilate to and augment the American way of life—immigration should be extremely limited and totally merit-based, or not at all.
Now, how many of those people are adults, who should be working but aren’t (this does not include the illegals who have no right to take an American job) and have children or other dependents? Probably a large majority, which just means that 2.754 million number is amplified—because who’s feeding them, housing them, paying for their healthcare, funding the emergency services that they disproportionately use, paying for their public school use, and offsetting the impact of the deficit-spending through taxes?
WE are.
