Male immigrants, illegals have lower unemployment than American-born men: Report

Quote:

Male immigrants, including illegals, have a significantly lower unemployment rate than American-born men, according to a new report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The agency reports that the unemployment rate for men born in the United States is 8.4 percent, compared to 7.5 percent for foreign-born men, The Washington Examiner first reported Wednesday.

The report did not specify percentages of legal and illegal immigrants separately, only describing those surveyed as “legally-admitted immigrants, refugees, temporary residents such as students and temporary workers, and undocumented immigrants.”

that's because we take any job that comes at us, which is why it would be wise for the GOP to simmer down their stance on immigration.

Unfortunately we don't have the luxury of going on welfare and bitching about socialism.

That is because we take what we can get. No shame in any line of work.

Like what my cousin told me a while ago, "a job is a job". If you're working, you're getting paid.

They may be shitty jobs but when you're against a wall, all you can do is push back.

I'll take the job of a congressman, it seems like a job they don't want to do.

I can't wait for those who are going to point out, "see? They are taking our jobs!"

That's because Americans got social safety nets.. Immigrants don't. If we don't work, we're out on the street
