"Study finds more Mexicans leaving the US than coming"

SAN DIEGO (AP) — More Mexicans are leaving than moving into the United States, reversing the flow of a half-century of mass migration, according to a study published Thursday.

The Pew Research Center found that slightly more than 1 million Mexicans and their families, including American-born children, left the U.S. for Mexico from 2009 to 2014. During the same five years, 870,000 Mexicans came to the U.S., resulting in a net flow to Mexico of 140,000.....

"Study finds more Mexicans leaving the US than coming"

I'm calling foul. This is nothing more than a misdirection play a flat-out lie. They come here, get paid, burden our social infrastructure, and take the money back home. They bunch up like roaches in one apartment, scrimp and pool for minimal living, then run back to Mexico with OUR money they get in cash and pay NO taxes.

And yes, the employers are as guilty as the employees. The San Diego rag is leftwing piece of crap and HAS been at least since 1980 when I got my first copy during my 2 whole hours of "free time" on Sunday mornings in boot camp.

I just have to wonder where rev lives at this point. Spent my life growing up in South Texas, South FL and CA. Spent half my career as a Marine in SoCal and the next 10 in San Antonio as a construction worker watching the bastards operate.. Currently live in NM.

I also know what the San Diego Union Tribune is worth. 0. IIRC correctly, the Hearst Corp owns it.

Guuny, As FJ mentioned the research was done by the Pew Research Foundation. they are non-parisan as far as i can tell.
http://www.pewresearch.org/about/


but I have to ask there have been other polls and what not on the board on various issues you don't seem to question those.
Also if you've got some stats that counter these. I'd be glad to see them and compare there methods etc.BUt UNTIL THEN i see no reason -- --other than your speculations and discomfort with the stats-- to dismiss the info.


Here's More info from Pew research.

http://www.pewresearch.org/files/2015/11/FT_15.11.19.Mexico.Unauthorized.Immigration.png


Six states alone account for 60% of unauthorized immigrants — California, Texas, Florida, New York, New Jersey and Illinois. But the distribution of the population is changing. From 2009 to 2012, several East Coast states were among those with population increases, whereas several Western states were among those with population decreases.

Mexicans make up about half of all unauthorized immigrants (49%), though their numbers have been declining in recent years.There were 5.6 million Mexican unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. in 2014 (http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/11/19/chapter-1-migration-flows-between-the-u-s-and-mexico-have-slowed-and-turned-toward-mexico/#number-of-unauthorized-mexican-immigrants-declines), down from 6.4 million in 2009, according to preliminary Pew Research Center estimates.

Unauthorized immigrants make up 5.1% of the U.S. labor force. In the U.S. labor force, there were 8.1 million unauthorized immigrants either working or looking for work in 2012. Among the states, Nevada (10%), California (9%), Texas (9%) and New Jersey (8%) had the highest shares of unauthorized immigrants in their labor forces.

About 7% of K-12 students had at least one unauthorized immigrant parent in 2012. Among these students, about eight-in-ten (79%) were born in the U.S. In Nevada, almost one-in-five students (18%) have at least one unauthorized immigrant parent, the largest share in the nation. Other top states on this measure are California (13%), Texas (13%) and Arizona (11%).

There were 11.3 million unauthorized immigrants in the U.S. in 2014. The population has remained essentially stable for five years (http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/07/22/unauthorized-immigrant-population-stable-for-half-a-decade/), and currently makes up 3.5% of the nation’s population. The number of unauthorized immigrants peaked in 2007 at 12.2 million, when this group was 4% of the U.S. population.

A poll is one thing - have hard facts and stats is another. I don't but it. But it doesn't matter. Until the ENTIRE problem is handled and done, we are being taken advantage of by criminals who eat away at our economy. And I don't care where the illegals are from, quite frankly.

Probably. I just don't see how they can speak specifics. Regardless, the feds need to start enforcing the law, and come down hard. But even if 100% spot on, there's 870,000 more that need to go. And I'm confident that Pew can tell us right where they got this information, no?

The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on Texans (2014)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Click here to read the full report in PDF.

After a brief hiatus that coincided with the worst of the economic recession, Texas’s illegal alien population is on the rise again. There are about 1,810,000 illegal aliens residing in Texas — 70,000 more than resided in the state in 2010 when we estimated the fiscal burden at nearly $8.9 billion annually.

In 2013, illegal immigration cost Texas taxpayers about $12.1 billion annually. That amounts to more than $1,197 for every Texas household headed by a native-born or naturalized U.S. citizen. The taxes paid by illegal aliens — estimated at $1.27 billion per year — do not come close to paying for those outlays, but we include an estimate of revenue from sales taxes, property taxes, alcohol taxes, and cigarette taxes.

Examining Texas’s fiscal outlays from the perspective of the current debate over adopting an amnesty for illegal aliens, we find that the fiscal burden to taxpayers would not be significantly lessened even if an amnesty like that proposed in the Senate’s S.744 were enacted. In fact, it becomes clear that the only way to significantly reduce the fiscal burden is to reduce the size of the population that illegally entered the country. State and local policymakers have options available to accomplish that objective. In Arizona, efforts to discourage the arrival of additional illegal residents and to hold employers accountable for knowingly hiring illegal workers have been effective in reducing the illegal alien population and, thereby, the fiscal costs associated with that population.

Aside from emotional arguments about compassion, proponents of an amnesty argue that granting legal status would allow the illegal alien population to seek higher paying jobs, move out of poverty, and contribute more taxes. Opponents of the amnesty proposal argue that besides undermining respect for the law the measure would encourage future illegal immigration and put the illegal alien population on the path to collecting the full range of public benefits that currently are not legally available.

You're not allowed to ask them if they're illegal aliens or not. No one wants to fix the problem and they always blame it on money. The illegals cost more in the long run than it would take to deport them. The anchor baby crap needs to stop too, and whoever has read the 14th Amendment and thinks it covers them is a moron not fit to judge a kindergarten beauty contest.

that data is absolutely correct and unquestionable because... why.
because they didn't ask Mexicans?
Or because you know they did it the right way. And Pew would lose funds if they did it properly. but Texas would loose nothing by adjusting the numbers of course. cough.

And BTW over in another thread there are all these polls listed on what muslims REALLY think, at least 6,7,8+ different polls.
how'd they do those polls? did they just ask Muslims or something? :laugh::laugh:. thats funny right?

What I've seen is most of these bleeding hearts don't live anywhere near where their hearts are bleeding. The Southern border. Whatever states they're going to dump these Syrians in. They read crap and post it.

I lived in a 2 br apt and INS bust the one next door. 21 illegals were holing up in it. And I wondered why I had to wage a damned war against roaches coming in from that wall. It was a nuclear void zone when I got done. :laugh:

What contractors will do is subcontract to a legit Tejano and HE brings in all the illegals to work. Contractor's hands are clean and for some unknown reason, INS doesn't come on construction sites.

Something else they reported on, a couple of days ago, was the refusal of American States to take refugees .. as represented by a map of America, with refusing States shaded in red. Their charming, non agenda-driven way of reporting it was to say that those States were 'frightened' to take them.

The UK's pollsters made a lot of money by consistently asserting that the 2015 General Election would produce a 'hung parliament' (no outright control by any one Party). To everyone's surprise, right up to election day, though nobody was predicting a Conservative win, that's what happened !

The UK's pollsters made a lot of money by consistently asserting that the 2015 General Election would produce a 'hung parliament' (no outright control by any one Party). To everyone's surprise, right up to election day, though nobody was predicting a Conservative win, that's what happened !

So, FJ, you were saying .. ??

Pollsters make money by being right. Why pay a pollster if they are unreliable?

Then why not counter what we are saying with facts, instead of posting like a sarcastic asshole? I read what you posted over and over and honestly can't find anything that's concrete in how they came up with these numbers. Care to share that with us then?

The Texas article I posted has a lot more factors involved, and monies spent, to account for more illegals. Did you read the entire PDF? I highly doubt it. You're too busy trying to post like a dolt towards others.

Because he posted facts to start the discussion with, and posted more. You and Gunny's response has been, "Nuh uh!". Nothing else, no proof of your opinion on the matter. It's debate-policy-standard deflection, to dismiss proof out of hand, and then demand proof.

Gee, wonder why we might have fewer illegals here? Might have something to do every one being assholes to them, or there's the down economy, where there's not enough jobs to go around. Remember when they stated the numbers started to drop. It was back when the banks failed, and even by the graph in the OP, we've since leveled off, now that the economy is more stable. If we start going thru a boom, look for the numbers to tick back up. The graph follows common sense, if you take time to consider it honestly,

Your Texas poll also examines only one state, it's called confirmation bias. It's an endemic problem with polling of any kind. It's why you don't see me bother with polls on this forum. Basically, even if I could put forth a proper poll, I guarantee there are at least 3 or 4 that directly contradict it, and it's not like anyone will listen anyway unless they already agree with me on what the poll says.

Rev is right that there's a strong double-standard for polls, wherein if we believe it might be true, or fear it might be true, well believe it out of hand, regardless of what the truth actually is.

I have a way of determining the veracity or otherwise of this information. Are you sitting comfortably .. ?

The BBC Reported It

... there y'go ... :rolleyes::rolleyes::uhoh:

Something else they reported on, a couple of days ago, was the refusal of American States to take refugees .. as represented by a map of America, with refusing States shaded in red. Their charming, non agenda-driven way of reporting it was to say that those States were 'frightened' to take them.

How's that for unbiased reporting ?


Well, actually, most of the states that refused ARE red states. We call them that repeatedly, so in this instance, they might just have picked it by how we refer to them ourselves.

Pollsters make money by being right. Why pay a pollster if they are unreliable?

Because people will have faith in them being right much of the time, and because pollster companies don't have a substitute that could quite do their job ?

But pollster companies cannot GUARANTEE their results to be accurate. There's always room for error. If there weren't, for example in the case of elections .. why not just have polls conducted, then dispense with the actual election ?

Here is maybe more info
http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/11/19/more-mexicans-leaving-than-coming-to-the-u-s/

Nothing anecdotal about growing up around it,working around it living around it most of your life. I can tell you wher in Downtown San Antonio you can go pick the illegal day laborers up. I can tell you Valero looks like if you get there after a dozen of them bust out of their 1987 Suburban. One buys the bread, one the baloney, one the cheese, one buys the Cokes once the chips. They suck up all the coffee. Place looks like a kansas farm hit locusts. Got to get there early.

Then they come on the jobsite and turn their damned mariachi music up full blast even if you were there first. If I want to listen 8 - 10 hours one one long drone after another, I'll go work in a Mexican restaurant. The sheetrockers and painters and rough carpenters are the worst because guess what ... THEY are illegals and do unskilled jobs. The skill trades are fill by guess ... Americans.

None of it changes anything for me. We still have a shitload ton of illegals in our country. Even if numbers are going down, so what? Does that mean the problem is magically solved? Not even remotely. Borders sealed, laws upheld, deportations back in effect, stop employers with illegals, stop giving illegals and and all benefits of any sort.

I wonder how much of a nets savings there is in the entire country when 870,000 illegals leave? How much do we still pay for illegals yearly? It's something like $100+ billion each and every year.

Two parts to the problem. The employers are fined minimally. Start hammering them with some REAL fines and some jail time, they might think twice. Everybody thinks this is a new topic. LBJ made his money in the 30s and 40s hiring illegals. It's only a new topic to people that don't live on the border. Guess where the first big city is to hide out in Texas and guess where I'm from? San Antonio.

First thing is, you stop the bleeding. And I ain't talking mo dumbass bigger wall. We have the technology and the manpower to enforce the border. Heat sensors, drones, satellite surveillance and a bunch of chair polishing bureaucrats that can man the border. Buck up or give up your easy ride on our tax dollars.

Part II is you deport them as you catch them. No major roundup effort. Cost too much. But if you got the border manned and sealed, they can't get back in once caught.

Like I have said before, Mexicans don't come to the U.S. before they like it here. Costs are a ton higher than south of the border. They come here for jobs that pay more than they can get at home. Take away the job and no one will cross the border.
But as long as everyone casts all the blame at the immigrants and turn a blind eye toward companies that hire them, you will always have illegal immigration.
In San Diego, there are labor offices that specialize in finding jobs for illegals. Most of them use off duty police officers for security. Everyone knows these places are there, but no one does anything about it.
Trump and Carson want to expand business opportunities, but deport illegal aliens. Do they just overlook who works at these businesses?

this an example of your fact filled reply?
Well i wonder how many Illegals coming to Texas are first registering with the Texas boarder patrol? hmm... Jim?

I posted Reseach data then you and others just went into blind denial and questioning mode.
For about a page and half there were lame BS jokes and comments but somehow my one sarcastic --but factually actuate-- remark is out of bounds?
You guys luuuv to dish out crap against opinions and FACTS you don't like but somehow can't take it.


OK So now you think I'm supposed lay down and ignore a page and half of BSery AND i'm somehow required to read ALL of your PDF, and then ONLY rebut or comment rationally without any jokes or or comebacks in reply? Since, after you read ALL OF the LINKS i posted you can't find anywhere that explained how the PEW data was gathered to your completely unbiased satisfation?

Sorry,
I'll read the whole report PDF after you and gunny do.
But here's some info to consider from Pew and your one linked page of Texas Info.


...The estimates are produced using a multistage method that subtracts the legal foreign-born population from the total adjusted foreign-born population, with the residual then used as the source of information about unauthorized immigrants. The source of these data is the U.S. Census Bureau’s March Current Population Surveys.
Because these estimates are derived from sample surveys, they are subject to uncertainty from sampling error, as well as other types of error. Each annual estimate of the unauthorized population is actually the middle point of a range of possible values that could be the true number. Additionally, the change from one year to the next has its own margin of error....(also here a page on how they got and used the data
http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/11/19/appendix-b-methodology-7/)


...There are about 1,810,000 illegal aliens residing in Texas — 70,000 more than resided in the state in 2010...
PEW gave the estimate of Texas illegal aliens as...
"...2009 to 2012...Texas ranked second, with 1.7 million unauthorized immigrants, 15% of the total. No other state had more than a million."

seems the stats match roughly well so far in just a quick look. if others want to get more clarity and compare apples to apples.
state trends to state trends
national trends to national trends.
that'd be great.

But if you just want to piss on the data i posted out of consternation or for fun.
And then make up the HORRIFIC illegal immigration problem to have something to whine about as you go along this election season that's fine to I guess.
I won't bother you.

Gabby for some that is true, but not all. Have ya ever been in a heavy populated Mexican area ( how silly of me, your from LA sure ya have ) but in every state I have ever been if you drive through the Mexican area's say around 7 am you will find hundreds of illegals huddled together waiting for a days work. In Atlanta they have 100's of these pick up area's and guess what, when the guy comes offering 2 jobs and there are 200 Mexicans there, only 2 work that day. There are places I am sure that employee these folks full time, but there is just that many that are waiting to be picked up by someone needing help that day, those folks if lucky may work one day a week. When I was on the road we would use them from time to time to unload trailers, they are called lumpers.

Do you also know how many don't work a single day here in America, unless you call drug dealing and or robbery a job, I sat and spoke with a cop in the middle of the night as I was leaving out one night in Gainesville GA ( Little Mexico is what it is called ) and he explained to me how the crime was so bad because either these folks would run back to Mexico if the cops where onto them, or they would get busted and the be deported only to be sitting in the police station a week later with a different name and a different crime.

Gabs I agree there are those here looking for work, those are the good folks, but there are many more here looking for the easy money that our streets offer.

Where's the bias? I listed facts based on a lifetime of observation. A dumbass poll designed to lead people to believe what they want you isn't actually anecdotal, it's a lie and IT is bias.

You didn't read much, did you? Spent half my career in SoCal. Currently in NM. And most of my life in Texas. Now you might THINK that's "one small region" but guess which region the illegals come in at? I don't think it's the Canadian border.

As far as bias goes, some of my best friends have been and are Mexican. I AM bias against illegal immigrants. They are criminals by their very presence. And they don't come here to be American. They come here and bring Mexico with them. If I wanted to live in Mexico, I'd move there.

It's NOT that hard for me. They main route of transportation is I35 and guess which first 6 largest city in the Nation they come to first? San Antonio. It's also one of the biggest drug corridors because it runs from Laredo to Minneapolis.

Another route is to go up the coast from Brownsville to Houston. Or they just hop the fence at El Paso. Ciudad Juarez is right on the other side of it.

Go sit in an Emergency Room on any given evening. Swamped with people that you KNOW are illegals and guess who's footing the bill? They can't be denied medical treatment. Then they either disappear into the woodwork or go back to Mexico.

Every time you pay for your outrageous medical insurance bill, think about it. You're paying for deadbeats, same as you pay for shoplifters when the prices go up.

And it's so much more than just medical care. Think about that number - $100 billion. Only when looking at our entire national debt does that number seem 'normal'. Otherwise, that's a disgustingly high number, from people taking advantage of us. 870,000 less may help, but the rest are still having a HUGE impact.

I'll take an extensive study over a poll. But you did say what I posted was a poll, and it's nothing of the sort. And it wasn't meant to counter anything about illegal immigration numbers. It was solely posted to talk about what illegal immigration costs.

Do you disagree that it's costly? Do you disagree that it costs about $100 billion and upwards per year? Do you disagree that it costs Texas about $12 billion?

I said the 1.8mm likely came from a poll because I'm guessing they didn't ask everyone in the state. I don't disagree but I can also probably find another extensive study with different illegal immigration numbers.

Actually, I did. And again, I'll go with FACTS instead of polls when it comes to such things. You want to dismiss cold hard numbers taken from Texas, but then somehow see polls as factual throughout 350 million. Did they poll all 350 million? No, they didn't. You guys want to jump at what works for you and then dismiss what doesn't. What I posted was cold hard numbers. Of course then somehow it's 'biased', but whatever. That wasn't my point anyway. My point was to show how much illegals cost. And I purposely looked up Texas as I was going back and forth with Gunny.

And I thought my gay crack was awesome. Better than some asshole who thinks he knows me better than himself. I guess identity issues do that.

I don't assume about the sources. You are just a freakin hard headed dumbass. I LIVE here. Just how many illegals do you figure fill out a census form? I bet they line right up. Most can't even speak English much less read a write it. You're just in your own little world and sticking to it.

The PEW research you are so proud of is pure BS. You'll believe anything. Illegals are leaving and the Air Force deals coke. And it doesn't matter what anyone else tells you even though they have direct knowledge. You and PEW have NO friggin clue how many illegals there are. Most obvious should be they don't announce their damned arrival. Wonder why? :rolleyes:

The term "wetback" is very old. It originated from Mexicans swimming the Rio Grande. They came out wet and that's how most got caught, if not shot. I've heard a few stories from my grandfather. Catch and release wasn't exactly policy in the old days. So technically, it refers to Mexicans swimming the river.

You need to learn your dirty names. For instance, calling a Cuban a spick is like calling a black a nigger. What most don't realize are all the nuances. The myth that Americans of Hispanic descent will vote against the GOP for closing the border and deportation is just that .. a myth. You think they want them around making them look bad?

It was phrased that way because it's a pro and con site; Pose a question and there is a yes and a no.

No question yes. Do the benefits outweigh the costs? Debatable but either way we need to get a handle on the issue. If we had a vibrant growing economy like we did in the early years of our country then any immigration would be easily absorbed. An advanced economy that is burdened by burdensome regulations, taxes, etc. they are not so easily absorbed.

I don't think anyone stated otherwise about regular immigrants. Between legal immigrants, and Americans, there won't be some mass hiatus from tough jobs if illegal immigrants are taken away from the jobs. Folks that are legal will fill the jobs. If it costs more to run the places, and the wages are higher, and then we pay more at the market - I have no issue with that is all I'm saying.

Like I have said before, Mexicans don't come to the U.S. before they like it here. Costs are a ton higher than south of the border. They come here for jobs that pay more than they can get at home. Take away the job and no one will cross the border.
But as long as everyone casts all the blame at the immigrants and turn a blind eye toward companies that hire them, you will always have illegal immigration.
In San Diego, there are labor offices that specialize in finding jobs for illegals. Most of them use off duty police officers for security. Everyone knows these places are there, but no one does anything about it.
Trump and Carson want to expand business opportunities, but deport illegal aliens. Do they just overlook who works at these businesses?


I believe many on here have said fine the hell out of the employers and mandate e-verify.

Jobs are a pull factor, eliminate the opportunity to work and illegal immigration will drop considerably.

None of it changes anything for me. We still have a shitload ton of illegals in our country. Even if numbers are going down, so what? Does that mean the problem is magically solved? Not even remotely. Borders sealed, laws upheld, deportations back in effect, stop employers with illegals, stop giving illegals and and all benefits of any sort.

I wonder how much of a nets savings there is in the entire country when 870,000 illegals leave? How much do we still pay for illegals yearly? It's something like $100+ billion each and every year.

Bad thing is, though...Most people in Los Angeles or Long Beach would not have anyone

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Another See, I Told You So. Remember the news last week from the Pew Research Center claiming they had data saying that more Mexicans were leaving the country than arriving and that it was, therefore, nothing to worry about anymore? Illegal immigration, we have a net loss here, essentially, because, yes, while there are a certain number of Mexicans and others arriving across the southern border, more are leaving. And my extraordinary memory kicked into gear, and I said, "You know, it seems like I've heard this story before, like back in 2012." It seems like every presidential election year I recall from recent times hearing news like this. And that it turns out to be not true, and it's just made up to limit the damage and kind of take the illegal immigration table down a notch or two so that it doesn't engender such turnout.

Well, right here I have data. Daniel Horowitz at ConservativeReview.com: "Appallingly Dishonest Pew Study on Immigration Trend from Mexico -- If you want to know the depths of dishonesty and obfuscation the liberal elite employ in order to distort the reality on any given issue, take a look at this Pew research report on immigration from Mexico. Pew claims that migration from Mexico is down to such a point that there is net out-migration -- that is to say more Mexicans in America have died or gone back home than returned," or are coming.

"Media outlets, from The Hill and Politico to the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal, are breathlessly promoting the headline of this report as if it reflected the truth of the moment. Their broader message was: 'See, the right wing nuts are going crazy about a border crisis when, in reality, there is zero net migration from Mexico.' The one problem? Pew was using old data from 2009-2014."

I was more right than I knew. They were recycling the same news that they used in 2012. They just repackaged it and updated it, and they added a couple of years, taking us to 2014, making it look like they had brand-new news which confirmed, but of course they didn't reference the same story they did back in 2012. It was only my memory. But obviously Horowitz here at the Conservative Review had the same memory jog.

And he says, "There is nothing new about this. Pew has been reporting on a number of occasions that in light of the recession a number of illegal immigrants from Mexico returned home." Now, the problem with this is, of course, that there isn't a recession, if you listen to Obama. If you listen to Obama and the Democrats, we're in a robust recovery. Why, what's the unemployment rate now, 5%, 5.1%. If you listen to the Regime they're hyping all these new jobs that have been created. Well, if you didn't know any better, you'd think that we're smoking. And if you don't have a job, it's not because of anybody's fault than yours. You're just not on the bandwagon. You haven't gotten on the gravy train 'cause, man, we're smoking out there. Where are you?

Of course that's not true. We have 94 million Americans not working. The unemployment rate really is 11 or 12% or maybe higher. There is no economic recovery and so there's no reason for Mexicans to be going home because the economy is so bad, except that it is bad and Mexicans aren't going home. Every premise in this story is phony.

"Pew has been reporting on a number of occasions that in light of the recession a number of illegal immigrants from Mexico returned home. But guess what? As we reported several months ago, according to the most up-to-date census data, based on the Current Population Survey (CPS), there has been a massive spike in net migration from Mexico." It's actually up and everybody knows this.

Amidst news stories day after day about all the arrivals flooding the Southern border, Pew wants to tell us that even with that more are returning home, but there aren't any pictures of that. Have you ever seen any pictures of Mexicans leaving? Or not just Mexicans, any illegal immigrant leaving, you don't see the pictures of it. Isn't happening. Some, maybe, but it's not mass like they're trying to point out here.

But the Census Bureau just nukes the Pew Research Center data. That's right. "There's been a massive spike in net migration from Mexico since 2014, precisely after Obama and the Gang of Eight began encouraging illegal immigration in a number of ways. The fact that 80 percent of illegal immigrants are now officially shielded from deportation and most others are unlikely to ever encounter resistance has clearly contributed to the surge," of new migrants. "Intelligence reports based on interviews of illegal aliens bear out the growing perception that our policies incentivize illegal immigration. Yet, Pew was dishonest enough to report this data as if it reflects the current reality, even though the current trend portends a political dynamic completely the opposite of that which they are trying to implant in the media cycle."

And they'll succeed, with the Post having picked it up and the New York Times shortly, and Politico, just like this phony Trump story, it's not gonna be long before wherever you look that more Mexicans are leaving than arriving. It's nothing to see here, and it isn't any big deal, and so you don't even need to worry about electing somebody's gonna deport 'em 'cause they're deporting themselves, don't sweat it. They're trying to take it off the table because they know it's a big turnout issue. So it's an effort to suppress Republican turnout and a number of other things.

But as Mr. Horowitz writes here, "The Pew report proves every premise of the border hawks. The fact that some illegal aliens returned home following the recession demonstrates how the false choice between amnesty and mass deportation is a straw-man argument. Mere passive economic disincentives from a recession were strong enough to entice illegal immigrants to repatriate. Imagine the effects of cutting off welfare and education benefits, jobs, and unqualified birthright citizenship?"

This has been the point that we've been making. You don't need to deport a bunch of people. They'll go home on their own once you start enforcing current immigration law. This is the big point I think that's overlooked in this immigration debate every time it's brought up. There is this incessant need for Washington to do something, we've got to do something, it's a crisis, we've gotta do something, comprehensive immigration reform. No. All we need to do is enforce the laws already on the books. It's already illegal to emigrate here illegally. Enforce every other law attached and you won't have to deport anybody, because then you really will have a net reduction in immigration. You eliminate the reasons, you know, all of them, those that want to come for work, not allowed to be hired. Those that want to come get in a safety net of a hammock, not gonna have the payments for it. It's simple. The law is already there, or I should say the laws are already there. And the fact that they're there and being ignored proves that all of this is nothing more than a political issue for both parties, in their own ways trying to increase their own power at the ballot box.

And for the Republican side, find a way to get cheaper employees in certain kinds of work. Anyway, I just wanted to point it out, folks, 'cause it's all BS. There is not a net loss of immigrants in the United States. They're coming here in numbers continually greater than those who are deporting.

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Another See, I Told You So. Remember the news last week from the Pew Research Center claiming they had data saying that more Mexicans were leaving the country than arriving and that it was, therefore, nothing to worry about anymore? Illegal immigration, we have a net loss here, essentially, because, yes, while there are a certain number of Mexicans and others arriving across the southern border, more are leaving. And my extraordinary memory kicked into gear, and I said, "You know, it seems like I've heard this story before, like back in 2012." It seems like every presidential election year I recall from recent times hearing news like this. And that it turns out to be not true, and it's just made up to limit the damage and kind of take the illegal immigration table down a notch or two so that it doesn't engender such turnout. OK, it was said in 2012. if true then so what if not where's the counter data?

Well, right here I have data. Daniel Horowitz at ConservativeReview.com: "Appallingly Dishonest Pew Study on Immigration Trend from Mexico -- If you want to know the depths of dishonesty and obfuscation the liberal elite employ in order to distort the reality on any given issue, take a look at this Pew research report on immigration from Mexico. Pew claims that migration from Mexico is down to such a point that there is net out-migration -- that is to say more Mexicans in America have died or gone back home than returned," or are coming.

"Media outlets, from The Hill and Politico to the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal, are breathlessly promoting the headline of this report as if it reflected the truth of the moment. Their broader message was: 'See, the right wing nuts are going crazy about a border crisis when, in reality, there is zero net migration from Mexico.' The one problem? Pew was using old data from 2009-2014."

I was more right than I knew. They were recycling the same news that they used in 2012. They just repackaged it and updated it, and they added a couple of years, taking us to 2014, making it look like they had brand-new news which confirmed, but of course they didn't reference the same story they did back in 2012. It was only my memory. But obviously Horowitz here at the Conservative Review had the same memory jog.
so if the data was correct in 2012 then isn't all you have to do is update it?

And he says, "There is nothing new about this. Pew has been reporting on a number of occasions that in light of the recession a number of illegal immigrants from Mexico returned home." Now, the problem with this is, of course, that there isn't a recession, if you listen to Obama. If you listen to Obama and the Democrats, we're in a robust recovery. Why, what's the unemployment rate now, 5%, 5.1%. If you listen to the Regime they're hyping all these new jobs that have been created. Well, if you didn't know any better, you'd think that we're smoking. And if you don't have a job, it's not because of anybody's fault than yours. You're just not on the bandwagon. You haven't gotten on the gravy train 'cause, man, we're smoking out there. Where are you?

Of course that's not true. We have 94 million Americans not working. The unemployment rate really is 11 or 12% or maybe higher. There is no economic recovery and so there's no reason for Mexicans to be going home because the economy is so bad, except that it is bad and Mexicans aren't going home. Every premise in this story is phony.

"Pew has been reporting on a number of occasions that in light of the recession a number of illegal immigrants from Mexico returned home. But guess what? As we reported several months ago, according to the most up-to-date census data, based on the Current Population Survey (CPS), there has been a massive spike in net migration from Mexico." It's actually up and everybody knows this.
so they are ALSO talking about NEW updated data, but they made it sound like updating was bad a minute ago.

Amidst news stories day after day about all the arrivals flooding the Southern border, Pew wants to tell us that even with that more are returning home, but there aren't any pictures of that. Have you ever seen any pictures of Mexicans leaving? Or not just Mexicans, any illegal immigrant leaving, you don't see the pictures of it. Isn't happening. Some, maybe, but it's not mass like they're trying to point out here.
so if we don't see pictures then the numbers are wrong? Really? Any pictures of all the MILLIONS that have come in?

But the Census Bureau just nukes the Pew Research Center data. That's right. "There's been a massive spike in net migration from Mexico since 2014, precisely after Obama and the Gang of Eight began encouraging illegal immigration in a number of ways. The fact that 80 percent of illegal immigrants are now officially shielded from deportation and most others are unlikely to ever encounter resistance has clearly contributed to the surge," of new migrants. "Intelligence reports based on interviews of illegal aliens bear out the growing perception that our policies incentivize illegal immigration. Yet, Pew was dishonest enough to report this data as if it reflects the current reality, even though the current trend portends a political dynamic completely the opposite of that which they are trying to implant in the media cycle."

And they'll succeed, with the Post having picked it up and the New York Times shortly, and Politico, just like this phony Trump story, it's not gonna be long before wherever... Blah... blah... Obama!....

Ok now at least we can talk about conflicting data.... OR IS IT?
It seem the Report that Rush and Horitiz are using to "refute" and call PEW a lie, doesn't.
IT doesn't really refute. It just looks at new numbers AFTER 2014.

from the study Rush sites


Immigrant Population Hits Record 42.1 Million in Second Quarter of 2015

...A new analysis of monthly Census Bureau data by the Center for Immigration Studies shows that the nation's immigrant population (legal and illegal) hit a record high of 42.1 million in the second quarter of this year — an increase of 1.7 million since the same quarter of 2014. Growth in the immigrant population in the last year was led by a 740,000 increase in the number of Mexican immigrants. After falling or growing little in recent years, the number of Mexican immigrants again seems to be growing significantly. The monthly Census Bureau data, referred to as the Current Population Survey (CPS), is released before other data. As more information becomes available, it should confirm the findings from the CPS.1 (http://cis.org/Immigrant-Population-Hits-Record-Second-Quarter-2015#1)Among the findings:

The nation's immigrant (foreign-born) population, which includes legal and illegal immigrants, grew by 4.1 million from the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of 2015 — 1.7 million in just the last year.
Growth in the last year was led by a rebound in the number of Mexican immigrants, which increased by 740,000 from 2014 to 2015 — accounting for 44 percent of the increase in the total immigrant population in the last year.
The total Mexican immigrant population (legal and illegal) reached 12.1 million in the second quarter of 2015 — the highest quarterly total ever.
Prior research has indicated that net migration (the number coming vs. leaving) from Mexico had fallen to zero; the recent growth indicates that the period of zero net migration has ended. ...

http://cis.org/Immigrant-Population-Hits-Record-Second-Quarter-2015
So It seems the PEW study is CONFIRMED. But it also looks there's been a new surge, OF LEGAL AND ILLEGAL. So rather than make up stuff and pretend someones lying or assume the facts are wrong because it upsets the foundation of the daily 3-minute hate against illegals, how about everyone settle down and just look at what seems to be happening.

"hey look this PEW study it says XYZ."

Folks reply with stuff like
...the PEW "poll" is wrong wrong wrong...
...it's leftist...
...it's paid for...
...did the illegal Mexicans log in with PEW? LOL...

...I know better because I have EYES...
...Rev you're #$&%& for believing that stuff...
...and look Texas says something slightly different about part of it and IT COST ALOT anyway!
...and wait RUSH says the study is total leftist lying crap LOOK!...
...see the PEW "poll" is crap.
...Rev you're a #$&%&

So I read the Texas info, I read a Rush info, to see if it's true or corrects/contradicts PEW.
then I reply with one snarky comment and the reasons why the PEW study, the Texas report and the source of Rush's study ALL appear to align.

then guys reply with stuff like
...Rev you're an arrogant #$&%&
.... REV you think you ....
....#$*^$#% Rev

so BD, I guess It'd be humble of me to just believe Gunny's "eyes" and everyone's opinion over the Pew, Texas and even's Rush's study. Sorry BD i'm not going to let people buffalo me with confident (but not arrogant?) opinions without PUTTING UP some info that really shows the PEW study wrong here.

You took one post of mine out of many. And much of my discussion was back and forth with Gunny.
Not much of a reply.

You posted the Texas info

Or even if you can poll them in the streets, then not charge them. If there is zero fear of being arrested for being here illegal, then of course there will be no fear in them for crossing the border.
And to give you and idea of what they cost, this is just your home state alone:
-----
The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on Texans (2014)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Click here to read the full report in PDF.
After a brief hiatus that coincided with the worst of the economic recession, Texas’s illegal alien population is on the rise again. There are about 1,810,000 illegal aliens residing in Texas — 70,000 more than resided in the state in 2010 when we estimated the fiscal burden at nearly $8.9 billion annually.
In 2013, illegal immigration cost Texas taxpayers about $12.1 billion annually. That amounts to more than $1,197 for every Texas household headed by a native-born or naturalized U.S. citizen. The taxes paid by illegal aliens — estimated at $1.27 billion per year — do not come close to paying for those outlays, but we include an estimate of revenue from sales taxes, property taxes, alcohol taxes, and cigarette taxes.
Examining Texas’s fiscal outlays from the perspective of the current debate over adopting an amnesty for illegal aliens, we find that the fiscal burden to taxpayers would not be significantly lessened even if an amnesty like that proposed in the Senate’s S.744 were enacted. In fact, it becomes clear that the only way to significantly reduce the fiscal burden is to reduce the size of the population that illegally entered the country. State and local policymakers have options available to accomplish that objective. In Arizona, efforts to discourage the arrival of additional illegal residents and to hold employers accountable for knowingly hiring illegal workers have been effective in reducing the illegal alien population and, thereby, the fiscal costs associated with that population.
Aside from emotional arguments about compassion, proponents of an amnesty argue that granting legal status would allow the illegal alien population to seek higher paying jobs, move out of poverty, and contribute more taxes. Opponents of the amnesty proposal argue that besides undermining respect for the law the measure would encourage future illegal immigration and put the illegal alien population on the path to collecting the full range of public benefits that currently are not legally available.

I then made general reply to everyone that was Sarcastic.
you replied to that with...

Then why not counter what we are saying with facts, instead of posting like a sarcastic asshole? I read what you posted over and over and honestly can't find anything that's concrete in how they came up with these numbers. Care to share that with us then?
The Texas article I posted has a lot more factors involved, and monies spent, to account for more illegals. Did you read the entire PDF? I highly doubt it. You're too busy trying to post like a dolt towards others.

I replied 1st commenting on your tone and ridiculous expectations and double standard but also with...

....But here's some info to consider from Pew and your one linked page of Texas Info.
http://www.debatepolicy.com/images/debate_policy/misc/quote_icon.png Originally Posted by Pew Research from links in my post
...The estimates are produced using a multistage method that subtracts the legal foreign-born population from the total adjusted foreign-born population, with the residual then used as the source of information about unauthorized immigrants.

Because these estimates are derived from sample surveys, they are subject to uncertainty from sampling error, as well as other types of error. Each annual estimate of the unauthorized population is actually the middle point of a range of possible values that could be the true number. Additionally, the change from one year to the next has its own margin of error....(also here a page on how they got and used the data

...There are about 1,810,000 illegal aliens residing in Texas — 70,000 more than resided in the state in 2010...

PEW gave the estimate of Texas illegal aliens as...
"...2009 to 2012...Texas ranked second, with 1.7 million unauthorized immigrants, 15% of the total. No other state had more than a million."

seems the stats match roughly well so far in just a quick look. if others want to get more clarity and compare apples to apples.
state trends to state trends
national trends to national trends.
that'd be great....

Now i summerize part of your post with,
"...and look Texas says something slightly different about part of it and IT COST ALOT anyway!"

you said.
"Then why not counter what we are saying with facts,... ..The Texas article I posted has a lot more factors involved, and monies spent, to account for more illegals...." (quoted in full above BTW)

and it seems it accurate. it doesn't matter who likes it or not. The question is, if it's true then some of the Hype and concern of illegals immigrants is overblown. since the trend basically slowed to nothing for a few years even during the Obama admin.
Facts aren't partisan they just are.

the sun is shining, there are over 300 million americans, the tide came in at 5:45
doesn't matter who agrees, it is what it is right?

And yet millions of criminal illegal scum are taking advantage of us and eating our resources. The trend of costing our country well over $100 billion dollars per year is NOT overblown. The crime from illegal immigrants is NOT overblown.

A net drop over a few years, and then increasing since, isn't some grand and great news. And the costs and damage to our country remains.

Oh yay though, the tide came in! :rolleyes:

I love Cheech and Chong! Neither of which are illegal, BTW. But in reality, I do have a bitter taste towards Mexican folks, due to many problematic issues over the years. Downright racism? Nah. But certainly have some preconceived thoughts and such. And 8 out of 10 times I am generally right. I admit that much about myself, unlike others. And you know what? In addition to the few Mexican folks I know, even those I don't know, if here legally, and are cool people, I'll buy the first case and have a blast with them! It's the caution I have in the beginning - and of course some things like tacos, burritos, craapy weed, cartels, illegals, hot sauce, tijuana and drugs...

Sue me.

Rev. Once again, you pull the racist card by always attacking others who NOTICE, and EXPOSE your racism by calling others racists. It's a LOSE-LOSE for you. But you're not smart enough to understand your own words are exposing you...EVERY TIME.

You simply can't comprehend or keep up. And YES, it WAS for gunny. Did you see the part in the post where I even mention it was his home state? Surely I'm allowed to branch off a tad and discuss finances of the costs of illegals, while others were discussing head counts? Do I need your permission? How many fucking times do I need to explain to you what my post was about? I had already explained it, and then you use it somehow to make it appear that it was in reply to your OP, when it was not. Then I further explain, and further explain - and you are going to continue to TELL ME what my post was meant to be about - even though it states it's to his home state, in the midst of a discussion between the 2 of us?

Go eat a bag of dicks, I don't need to explain any more than that to you. If it ain't good enough, immerse yourself in said bag. Enjoy!

I am not sure exactly what that means, but I think it is an insult! :)

As far as leaving faster than entering. I thought of this thread when I read this article.

-----

A new surge in families trying to enter the U.S. from Mexico illegally should prompt a federal appeals court to act more quickly to restore the government's authority to lock up those families pending deportation, the Justice Department argued in a motion filed Tuesday night.

While immigration officials have said monthly apprehensions of families have nearly tripled compared to last year, a top Border Patrol official said in a new declaration that detentions of families have spiked to more than 300 people per day on recent occasions.

"Within the last 15-20 days, there have been several days in which the number of individuals in family units apprehended along the Southwest Border has topped 300 in a single day," Border Patrol Plannng and Analysis Chief Woody Lee wrote. "For example, on November 21, 2015, the Border Patrol apprehended 344 individuals in family units, the highest number of apprehensions in a single day Since July 2014."

Lee said it is "especially concerning" that the numbers are rising now since "illegal migration along the Southwest Border is typically lower during the fall and winter seasons."

Looks like this "leaving faster than they are coming" has changed this past year, and getting worse.

----

The surge of illegal immigrant children continued unabated in November, pushing the Obama administration to announce emergency measures to try to handle a problem it thought it had solved earlier this year.

Two months into the new fiscal year, the number of unaccompanied minors jumping the border and getting caught is at an all-time high. So far, the U.S. Border Patrol has picked up over 10,500 — more than twice the number at the same point last year.

The number of families trying to cross also has surged, with more than 12,500 people caught — a 173 percent increase over last year. The family surge underscored the changing nature of the flow of migrants, with parents increasingly risking the journey with young children in tow, hoping to take advantage of what they believe are lenient deportation policies under President Obama.
