Elections 2024 / Re: BREAKING: 80,000 in attendance at President Trump's rally in Wildwood, New Jersey!
« Last post by cato potatoe on Today at 06:04:35 pm »How many of Ellis island immigrants had a HS degree. Not much. In the last decade the education level of Hispanics crossing the border has increased. 53% age 25-64 of Hispanics from south of border crossing into the US have a HS degree entering the US
2nd generation hispanics are nearing the education levels of native born, HS. Still behind but rapidly catching up and gap decreases every year
https://undocumented.thehastingscenter.org/issuebrief/demographics-and-socioeconomic-status/
5.3 million Hispanic business in the us, 3.7 million for blacks.
Hispanics own 49.7 % of their own homes, 44% blacks and 75% whites.
Hispanic education, business growth, wealth is increasing by large amounts every year. To call them low IQ losers is ludicrous.
I’m sure that seems reasonable to anyone who hasn’t traveled outside of the United States. To compare Haitians, Venezuelans and assorted third world refugees to Irish and Italians is absurd. The vast majority of countries south of the US are burdened with massive underclasses of low-IQ peasants. Which is exactly why you want them here, to exploit indefinitely for cheap labor, and socialize the costs. Forgive me if I’m unimpressed with those education stats. Supposedly, Cuba has the highest literacy rate in the western hemisphere, and every rookie from the Dominican Republic is 18.

This "we assimilated unskilled immigrants before and so can do it again" argument is intellectual laziness at its worst.
The economy of 2024 isn't anything like the economy during the mass immigration eras of the late 19th and early 20th century. Back then, our economy required large numbers of unskilled/low-skilled laborers because we were still heavily dependent on human muscle power. The Hoover Dam was dug largely by hand. Now, the economy is much more heavily automated, and we hear a ton about the lack of lower end jobs for people without educations.
I always find it amusing that the same crowd that claims we need masses of illegal immigrants to take jobs that would otherwise go unfilled also tends to supports things like universal basic income because there aren't supposedly enough jobs to go around. So we're just importing more people to whom we are going to have to pay that UBI.
But if you really think we need more immigrants, here's an idea: first secure the border, and stop the flood of unvetted, minimally qualified illegal aliens. Then, bring in the necessary number of legal immigrants via a merit-based based. Isn't a merit-based system - English proficiency, education achievement, etc., preferable? Hell, bring in as many of those high-achieving Nigerians as we can get!
I'd have zero problem with that.

Senate Democratic candidates in several key swing states are beating their Republican opponents in the latest round of polling released on Monday.
Democrats are ahead in Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin but tied with the GOP in Nevada, according to a New York Times-Siena College survey.
The results underscore the challenges that lie ahead for Republicans as Democrats fight to maintain their one-seat Senate majority. The Democratic Senate candidates are far outperforming their party’s leader in the same states, where President Joe Biden trails former President Donald Trump in all four.
Wisconsin boasts the biggest lead of 7 percentage points for Democrats, with Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) at 49% to Republican Eric Hovde’s 42%. The margin of error for the state’s results was plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
In Arizona, Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) leads Republican Kari Lake by 3 points, 46% to 43%. The margin of error was plus or minus 4.2 percentage points.
Then, in Pennsylvania, Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) is ahead by 2 points over Republican David McCormick, 46% to 44%, within the margin of error of plus or minus 3.6 percentage points.
In Nevada, however, Sen. Jackey Rosen (D-NV) and Republican Sam Brown are tied at 41%. The margin of error was plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
Democrats also face competitive Senate races with four other seats they hold, including Michigan, Montana, Ohio, and Maryland. Those states were not included in the poll.
