Employment Report Shocker: The Natives Are Jobless

WAIT UNTIL DONALD TRUMP SEES THIS CHART …

|| By FITSNEWS ||  Native-born Americans lost nearly 700,000 jobs last month, while foreign-born workers added 204,000 positions – the latest data points in a disturbing post-recessionary employment trend.

Since December 2007, native-born Americans have added only 790,000 positions in the U.S. economy.  Foreign-born workers, on the other hand, have added 2.1 million positions.

Those numbers come from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) – which prepares the monthly employment situation reports.  Although as you’d suspect, the government isn’t exactly rushing to get the word out.

Frightening …

“This is the source of the anger,” a national conservative activist told us, referencing the forces fueling the rise of GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump.  In fact our guess is Trump – who has made comprehensive immigration reform a centerpiece of his campaign – will have a field day with this data.

As he should …

Natives aren’t as smart or hardworking as the immigrants. You’ve got idiots ‘natives’ who comment here everyday, on government assistance, talking about immigrants mooching. Well, they are the ones getting jobs, while you guys are the moochers. And you wonder why Democrats and Republicans support continued open immigration policies. The corporations need these people for our economy to keep chugging along.

Yeah – that sounds good and it might even be true for 5-10% of the immigrants coming here today. And all 5-10% of them are legal. As for the other 90%, well not so much. According to PEW Research:

– Adult unauthorized immigrants are disproportionately likely to be poorly educated. Among unauthorized immigrants ages 25-64, 47% have less than a high school education. By contrast, only 8% of U.S. born residents ages 25-64 have not graduated from high school.

– Nearly three-in-ten (29%) have less than a ninth-grade education; an additional 18% have some high school education but have not completed high school. The proportion of unauthorized immigrants with either less than a ninth-grade education or less than a high school education is roughly double the share of legal foreign-born residents with those educational levels. It is far greater than the share of U.S.-born adults—only 2% of those ages 25-64 have less than a ninth-grade education, and only 6% have additional years in high school, but no diploma.

– Mexico is the source of by far the largest number of unauthorized immigrants, accounting for 7 million of the 11.9 million unauthorized immigrants in 2008. This 59% share has remained roughly constant over the past three decades. Other parts of Latin America send a significant share of the total, with 1.3 million (11%) coming from Central America, 775,000 (7%) from South America, and 500,000 (4%) from the Caribbean. South and East Asia is another large source, sending 1.3 million (11%), whereas the Middle East accounts for 190,000, or less than 2%.

Jack September 8, 2015 at 2:52 pm

How can you people read these stats and draw all the wrong conclusions. The reason these people come here and get jobs is that corporations and billionaires want simi-slave labor so they can make more money. They know Americans cannot afford to work for what illegals will work for. They know they can’t pay Americans below our historically low minimum wage under the table and get away with it. They want people who will come here, work for two or three dollars an hour with no benefits, and get paid under the table. They want people who will not report them because they are afraid of being deported. They want people who will do whatever illegal crap they tell them to do because they will be deported if they don’t.

We need to raise the minimum wage to its historical average on an inflation adjusted basis. We need to crack down on companies that employ illegals with heavy fines and jail terms.

Reply
The Colonel September 8, 2015 at 3:29 pm

I was drawing no conclusions at all, simply refuting the idea that most of the illegal immigrants were “…better educated blah, blah, blah… harder working…blah, blah, blah..”

I agree wholeheartedly that we need to crack down on employers who exploit illegal immigrants – it would go a long way towards stemming the flow.

Democratic strategy. Create millions of loyal democratic voters by rewarding illegal immigrants for criminal activity by granting them citizenship and jobs. They will send most of their money to family in Mexico and further damage our economy but they will always vote democrat. That will create millions of unemployed people that lose their jobs to the “new citizens.” They will become democrat voters due to promises of increased benefits. The country goes broke (we already are but…..) and democrats maintain power.

Again, Zerohedge manipulates the dates and data to perpetuate their own narrative. I’m not saying we don’t have real problems, but this chart is not an indication of it.

Why does Zerohedge start the chart in December? Because as you can see their always a drop in January after Christmas. Why end in August? It’s before the schools start back and the Thanksgiving – Christmas seasonal hiring.

Native-born Americans lost nearly 700,000 jobs last month, while foreign-born workers added 204,000 positions….

Notice on the “native-born” line that each year appears to be shaped like an “M”. The data is not seasonally adjusted and the trend through the years is upward. Hedge just picked a month that is typically a down month. There is a different trend in migrants who disproportionately work in agriculture during the summer harvest.

Since December 2007, Native-born Americans have added only 790,000 positions in the U.S. economy.  Foreign-born workers, on the other hand, have added 2.1 million positions.

Again there is no adjustments for demographics. “Native-born” are older than immigrants and the boomers are retiring. If you count job gains since 2010, however, native-born have gained 6.7 million while foreign-born have gained about 3 million.

The bottom line is this. The number of illegals in the country went up by 4 million under Bush. That number has dropped by about 200,000 under Obama. These Jobs are going to people Bush allowed into the Country. Not Obama. What you are seeing is just more evidence that the Republican establishment supports illegal immigration, because it benefits wealthy corporations who use illegal alien labor. The reason we have an immigration problem is the Republicans in congress block any attempt to punish individuals and corporations for hiring illegal aliens. You can build all the walls in the world, and they will get under them, over them or around them as long as there are jobs for them to have. We need to impose high fines on companies and people who hire illegals.
