Center for Immigration Studies
Take that anecdotal evidence that you people have about illegals only doing jobs that Americans won’t do and shove it up your arse. You realize that when you say that you’re putting down the American worker, calling us lazy, right? You sound like Obama.

Of the 465 civilian occupations, only four are majority immigrant. These four occupations account for less than 1 percent of the total U.S. workforce. Moreover, native-born Americans comprise 47 percent of workers in these occupations.

Many jobs often thought to be overwhelmingly immigrant are in fact majority native-born:
Maids and housekeepers: 55 percent native-born
Taxi drivers and chauffeurs: 58 percent native-born
Butchers and meat processors: 63 percent native-born
Grounds maintenance workers: 65 percent native-born
Construction laborers: 65 percent native-born
Porters, bellhops, and concierges: 71 percent native-born
Janitors: 75 percent native-born

Who cares what world I leave my grandchildren as long as I can get my lawn mowed cheap.

I mow my own. Clears the mind.

I get that. I just usually clear my mind at the gym or on the basketball court. Too tired after that to mow the yard.
Plus I gotta spend some time with wifey and little man. Only so many hours/so much energy in the day

The Obama-kin are the ones that say that. You just complimented them.
Also, "immigrant" is not the same thing as "illegal immigrant". No one has a problem with people that come here legally working. The mantra from the Left about "jobs Americans won't do" was all about illegal immigration (since illegals will work for less than minimum wage).

So you got accurate statistics on underground labor?

They’re using both legal and illegals for their studies.

Problem is that even 30% can push wages down for Americans.
They take the jobs that Americans don’t want to do for price.

I understand that, which is why we need to go after employers hiring illegals.

Is there a breakdown of what percentage of those jobs are done by legal vs illegal immigrants?
Posted on 6/20/18 at 9:23 pm to Bard
I'd like to see that breakdown, too.
Probably hard to get your hands on a reliable one, though.
What with the whole illegal thing

On top of that, is there anything better than the post-mow beer? I honestly don't think there is.

everyone knows the whole "they do the jobs we won't" shtick is BS

That contains nothing about what percentage of jobs immigrants are doing are being done by illegal immigrants.

This. And if you liberals wanna protest when I’m trying to get to the pipeline, my f250 welding truck has a custom “snowflake proof” brush guard

Ok, well they counted all immigrants, illegal or otherwise.
