Enforcement Works — Unexpectedly!

You know how the MSM is always surprised that their hero’s policies don’t work? Well, I haven’t yet seen the flip side of that regarding Alabama’s immigration law, but after all the Rotting in the Fields stories from months ago, I await headlines like, “Ala. Joblessness Drops Despite Harsh Immigration Law.”

But at least Neil Munro at the Daily Caller is on the case:

Alabama’s unemployment rate fell at a record pace in November amid stepped-up efforts by President Barack Obama’s deputies to frustrate enforcement of the state’s popular new immigration reform.

The state’s unemployment rate fell 0.6 percent in November to 8.7 percent, according to new state reports, partly because the state’s employers opened up jobs to Americans after shedding illegal immigrants.

The unemployment rate is far below October’s rate of 9.3 percent and September’s rate of 9.8 percent.

“The continued drop is proof that people — American Citizens [and] legal migrants, have suffered at the hands of politicians who choose politics over economics,” said Chuck Ellis, a council member in Northern Alabama’s Marshall County.

“What’s really amazing is that in Marshall County, a county of 95,000 residents, 30,000 workforce eligible, there are over 600 people who now have jobs that they didn’t have 6 months ago,” he said.

In November the county’s unemployment rate dropped 0.7 percent, from 8.1 percent to 7.4 percent.

“Is that a difference of great significance? Ask those families for an answer as they undertake the Christmas season,” Ellis said.

Oh, and 2011 is shaping up to be a banner year for farmers nationwide, with profits expected to be up 28 percent from 2010.

EXCELLENT! Of course we'll never see this from the Lame Stream Media.

What wonderful news! I mean common sense, if you get rid of the illegals it opens jobs for those who belong here.
