He estimated the state could lose at least $54 million if all Hispanics closed their wallets and purses for a day.

As Rush has always taught us, do the math.

If Hispanics didn't spend a dime on one day, this guy estimates the state losses $54MM that day. So, multiply 54MM by 365 and you get $19.71 BILLION.

I find this number beyond realistic.

I'm all for it if they also promise not to use an emergency room and pull their kids out of school for the day.
