By Jeff Davidson,
The data related to Hispanics in North Carolina is revealing. Of 11.3 million state residents, 1.3 million are Hispanic, based on 2019 data (before Biden was installed as president). According to the American Community Survey, 54% of them are Mexicans, followed distantly by Puerto Ricans, Hondurans, Salvadoreans, Guatemalans, and a variety of other nationalities.
Of all Hispanics in North Carolina, 34% are here illegally: they are not citizens and they do not have green cards or work permits.
Ramifications Happens
In America, still the world’s greatest melting pot, with at least 61 million Hispanic residents, out of a total population of 346.2 million, not enough eyebrows are raised. Nearly one in five residents here are Hispanic, with a median age far lower than the rest of our population. As many as one in three Hispanics residing in the U.S. could be illegal, and certainly as many as one in four are illegal.
With more than one in three in North Carolina, ramifications abound. Most of these Hispanic individuals are under age 30. What does this mean from a social and cultural standpoint? At least 1 in 30 people in hospital emergency rooms are receiving benefits for which they have offered no financial contribution. One in 30, 3.3%, is consequential. Who would enjoy an unannounced 3.3% rise in one’s rent or mortgage?
About 29% of all foreign-born North Carolina residents (not simply Hispanics) age 16 or over, are not in the labor force, based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau. Nationwide, 74% of adults, ages 19 to 64, have health insurance. In North Carolina, it’s only 54%. Who pays for these people?
Subtle Burdens Add Up
Illegal drivers cause a disproportionate share of accidents and are an added burden to the police force and first responders. Many public servants already work long hours. An added burden to their workload is significant: If you have a 40-hour job, from 9 to 5, five days a week, and you’re required to work more hours with no extra compensation and benefits, and no acknowledgment, is that fair? And suppose the percentage of illegals in NC climbs to more than 34%.
For now, North Carolina is not a central magnet for Hispanics coming over the border. California, Illinois, New York, Texas, and Florida bear the brunt of the border invasion. Illegals come to North Carolina largely because they already have a relative with whom they can stay, or there’s some other compelling, close, personal connection.
Democrats seek as many illegals here and in every state as quickly as possible. Four four years, the Biden Administration ensured that the percentage grew markedly. Despite their denials, Democrats long-term goal is to replace the U.S. Caucasian population or at least to quickly make it a minority. By 2050, they could succeed.
Any country that seeks to maintain its culture, finances, sovereignty, and all other aspects of nationhood, cannot endure an unending stream of immigration lawbreakers. Indeed, one cannot cite another country on Earth that is both prosperous and is experiencing our border crisis.
A Steep, Unending Tax
Biden still has two months to wreak havoc. Every time another illegal plants a foot in America and is shuttled to our interior by the Biden Administration, is given a $500 per night hotel room in New York, and is allowed to partake of our educational, medical, and social services, it is a steep tax on everyone who resides here legally, pays taxes, and acts responsibly.
The New York City trash buildup in hotel rooms and hallways housing the illegals speaks volumes as to how many of these people live and act. A former employee of the Row Hotel took pictures of the hotel rooms occupied by people flown in from the border by the Biden Administration. The scene is beyond ugly and chaotic, festering with violence and drug use.
Thanks to the Biden Administration, and Democrats and RINOs in Congress, the scene quickly multiplied across America. The Trump Administration will rectify the situation but at untold financial, political, and social cost.
