246. Apparently It Needs To Be. The facts speak for themselves.
Edited on Sun Jun-18-06 10:31 PM by DistressedAmerican
Thre are approximately 12 millon that did not fit into those quotas that are here doing work and contributing to our economy.

Tell me that those numbers are adequate given the large number still coming in and the large number that employ them. They aren't. The facts speak for themselves. Current quotas are TOO LOW to meet the demands of our current economy. Hence, the huge number of illegal workers being employed.

When they can fill all of those jobs with legal workers (large enough quotas to meet demand from the labor market), the system is back in balance and we do not have vigilante freaks manning the border.

When you start getting all freaky about the number you quote, you should consider looking at the projected US population growth in the same time period. There is no problem absorbing that many immigrants nation wide over that many years.

4 specific questions for you:
Just how many latinos are you willing to allow into the country over that period?

Why that number?

Is it based on the factors described above?

Why not more than that number?
