Well, that certainly blows the argument for more visas needed for foreign workers.

What's truly troubling about this is what happens in the mid-1980's til now, looks like it coordinates with the 1986 amnesty and has gotten worse.

Proves to me that there should never be another amnesty.

That's what I see... even without a chart.

Great post Reggie May! It realy makes it easily understandable to see that we are in our nations historic high of immigrant labor. and 56.2% are from Latin America. THis totaly illustrates the unbalanced and disproportionate number of Hispanics that are invading America.
