No. Minorities largely vote Democrat/left.  Don’t give me any of that catholic conservatives values bullshit either.  We don’t need any more Mexicans/South Americans than we already have.  Hell, they’re one of the only demographics with an above replacement birth rate.  They’re doing a find job increasing their numbers stateside as is.

As far as Mexicans only doing jobs Americans won't, look at HGTV home renovation shows and you will see that many trades are done by Mexicans.   Those are decent, probably well paying jobs somehow taken by illegals.

I know this will not sit well with some here but here goes.

My opinion has changed regarding our "recent Hispanic immigrants". In fact they may be the only hope left for America given the ever increasing number of them voting against the dems and their communism. Let's face it, they know communism and banana republics when they see them.

Now I'm not so ignorant to know that they will:

* Take full advantage of every freebee offered them.....You know, like "real" minority Americans do.
View Quote
Everyone does it. I don't even blame them.  A pox on our elected representatives for putting these systems in place.
* Fail to assimilate until at least a generation is born here.....No different than any other non English speaking immigrant group throughout our history.
View Quote

I'm not sure what this means.  "Didn't learn English right away"? So what? "Failed to become self reliant and not reach for a nanny-state to provide all"? Well, even the natives have that attitude these days.
* Continue to take US jobs, work under the table, and send $$$ to their relatives in their home countries.
View Quote

"Take US jobs and work under the table" is interesting.  Why are there incentives for anyone to work under the table?

And who cares what people do with their money?
* Shirk many existing laws. (most of which are anti-freedom anyway)
View Quote

There is a HUGE problem in this country with the number of laws and selective enforcement of them, but that isn't an immigrant issue.
What America does gain from them is:
* A strong religious (abet mostly Catholic) sense.
* Live in and promote much more cohesive family units than certain segments of our own minority population.
* Possess a very powerful work ethic.
View Quote

This almost sounds like the "nobel savage" trope and I don't think it is particularly true.

If your thesis is "illegal aliens are our last hope" you are terribly mistaken.

Because illegal immigration destroyed the labor market. English speaking Americans cannot get hired for many of the jobs they used to do in large part because the Hispanics working those jobs will not accept them. Tribalism rules for lower wage jobs but the threshold moves upwards every year. H1B and amnesty means that the labor market becomes much weaker for US Citizens while becoming much stronger for foreigners and those able to partake in cultural and racial preference - of which whites are not allowed.

This is going to be a disaster. No fart huffing silver lining is going to assuage the pain.

For years on this board it's always been "I know this one Mexican gun owning conservative therefore they're all cool".

Never mind the overwhelming statistics that they vote for Democrats by a large margin.

Also hilarious is people trotting out the jobs American's won't do.   In the midwest you see plenty of white people cutting lawns and they do pretty well at it.  Also see plenty of white roofers.  Just because you live in some illegal alien infested area that has driven down wages doesn't mean everywhere is like that.

Boomercon logic thread

Immigrants strengthen our country but not their own?

America is an idea but they have to come here to learn it?

There are lots of good hardworking freedom loving immigrants except for the 90% who vote against the Bill of Rights, vote for massive government programs, and silo themselves to exert their political preference at the local level.

The United States has had an excess of immigration for 50 years. We don't need more, we need to stop, assimilate what we've got and then slowly start back up in 20-30 years. No party has the will to do this.

Pat Buchanan was right. We're done and dusted. Learn Spanish, learn how to benefit from mordida, and mentally prepare yourself for the country looking as bizarre to you in 15 years as it would today to someone from 2005.

My maternal family is from Venezuela. Italians by lineage but I don't know how they ended up in South America.

Most of my aunts and uncles lived the majority of their lives in the USA. Only my oldest uncle remained in South America until around 2015-2016. He had his guns taken under Maduro and all that. He's a chemical engineer and got his degree in the UK - so while he lived in Maracaibo, he was frequently in Houston.

He is not the greatest with women, however and has married 5 or 6 times. His present wife (which seems to have finally been the right one for him) was allllllllll about that socialism shit. From the late 2000s to around 2016 there was no convincing her it was bad. Even though my uncle was a high income earner.

Nope, she didn't see the error of that style until the very end of it. People looking for valuable metals in the open sewers. People being robbed for the mangos that grow in their back yards. Only then did she decide it might not be so swell. Since my uncle was a dual citizen, guess where they came to? Straight up abandoned his house and move to Houston.

That's the level of cognitive dissonance we're going to see.

I work with a fella from Argentina who became a legal citizen last year. Honestly, the guy busted his ass by studying, landing major certifications and getting an AAS in computer engineering before he became a citizen. He said he felt that he needs to be able to contribute and be of value to the work force if he is to become a citizen. He did shit 100% correct, did everything necessary and he and his son are now permanent residents. His son said he wants to join the Navy to repay his citizenship and feels it should be necessary for men his age if they want to become a citizen. Now, their stance on illegals is rather strong, mostly because people hear his accent and think he is an "illegal Mexican" or "boarder hopper". I have to say he has some colorful terms to use for those in the caravans. As far as an employee, he has been excellent and promoted twice since we hired him full time after he became a citizen.

Look for the left's attitude to change regarding any future immigrants.  The left has figured out they don't actually need voters anymore.  And the career politicians on the "Right" have shown that they won't fight back.

Don't get me wrong, these poor people still have their usefulness (as all poor do) to the ruling class, but are not as important any longer...

No illegals to distort the market, wages go up until they reach a point where someone will take the job.

Amazing how people can not grasp this.  Simply supply and demand.  More cheap Mexican labor means more supply and salaries decrease.

To the 50K a year lawn care example guy.   The people who cut grass in the midwest are white.  Living in AZ with tons of available Mexican labor has distorted the wages and your reality.

It's 40 to 50 dollars a cut here and the dudes drive really nice trucks.  So yes White Americans will cut grass you don't need to bring in immigrants to cut grass.

Just look at demographic maps and voting maps in TX. Amazingly, the border areas are really blue! I wonder why that would be, despite their largely rural spread being indicative of republican voting patterns pretty much everywhere else...

Worth pointing out though that many of those border counties swung hard towards Trump in 2020 (still blue, but a lot of them went ~55-45 after going in the ballpark of 85-15 in 2016). Whether that's sustainable without Trump himself, we'll see. A lot of his...shall we say personality aspects...that make the urban affluent white bubble dwellers hate him are pretty appealing to first generation Latinos, especially men.

I don't know what the answer is other than that we do need to try to win Hispanics over to our side. Doing so is a plus for us, regardless of how many or few new ones come in every year (and contrary to the leftist narrative supporting open borders isn't what will win them over). Also important to actively put resources into Puerto Rico starting now--almost wonder if Trump and the GOP shouldn't have flipped the script and offered them statehood back in 2017.

Ask New York how that worked out for them, OP.

They "'do the jobs Americans won't" because those jobs pay shit wages... and those jobs pay shit wages because the presence of 3rd Worlders drives the wages for those jobs down.

Nailed it. I’ve explained this economic law of supply and demand to family and acquaintances that spew that the no human is illegal bullshit. It’s been discussed enough at family events that it isn’t that they don’t understand, they don’t want to admit that they’re wrong.

As far as Mexicans only doing jobs Americans won't, look at HGTV home renovation shows and you will see that many trades are done by Mexicans.   Those are decent, probably well paying jobs somehow taken by illegals.



My mothers husband is a completely brainwashed, retired, union drone. When they were building a new house he hired Mexicans to do the roof and drywall in the basement because they were cheaper. He looked like his head was going explode when I pointed out the irony, the only response he could come up with was I was racist
