....funds sent by migrant workers back to their families are a major international financial flow into Mexico..... Remittances bring more than '20 billion dollars a year' into the economy, an amount equivalent to 2.5% of Mexico’s GDP......20% of Mexican residents regularly receive some financial support from relatives working abroad. ...so 20% of their population works outside their nation.

In 2005 there were approximately 7.2 million illegal immigrants working in our civilian workforce. They accounted for 4.9% of the 148 million workers we had.

And while 31% of them were in service jobs, and 19% were doing construction work, they were in no case essential to these industries.

They just displaced American workers who couldn’t take wage and benefit cuts

No other nation on earth permits or encourages illegal immigration like we do. No other nation has “sanctuary cities” in which local authorities refuse to cooperate with federal authorities in enforcing federal law. No other nation elects politicians and judges who think law breakers should be entitled to generous taxpayer supplied benefits.

Too bad O’Reilly doesn't know this. Jorge from Univision was such a jerk regarding illegal immigration. Jorge believes that the illegals invest in the US, NO, dear Amigo. They send the money back to Cartel Land.
