Are stinky Mexican immigrants taking over America?
Uploaded by: RayWilliamJohnson
Video Description:
Note: I've been debating in the comments section and have pretty much responded to every opposing argument that exists on this issue. At this point, no one is making any new arguments, and no one has offered me anything based on any credible evidence. Thus, the debate has concluded, and due to the overwhelming amount of morons who have left racial slurs and ad hominem attacks in the comments section, I've decided to filter the comments from this point on.
This is episode 008 of Capitol Hill Gangsta. In this episode I explore the current immigration debate. Admittedly, I had to gloss over the complexities of the issue in the video due to time constraints.
SOURCES:
The bulk of my data come from the research and writings of Tyler Cowen, Alex Tabarrok, Grancesco Giavazzi, Philippe Legrain, Robert Whaples, Jagdish Bhagwati, Bob Hamilton, Alberto Alesina, David Henderson, Jonathon Moses, Bjorn Letnes, Giovanni Peri, John Whalley, Gordon Hanson, Julian Simon, Pia Orrenius, and the wonderful and talented Jose Moya of Columbia University. Collectively, these scholars and professional economists have put out an abundance of literature on the subject (too much to list here). Feel free to search Jstor or any other scholarly journal database for some their work in order to check the accuracy of my statements.
MORE COOL STUFF:
Here are a few other interesting things I found on the internet after posting this video (the following links are NOT sources, they are simply interesting things to look at):
Here is economist Alex Tabarrok's "Open Letter on Immigration," which reportedly reflects the consensus among economists on the issue:

Here is a study on Mexican carpenters working in California by UC Davis Professor Giovanni Peri. The conclusion of the study suggests that immigrants don't take jobs away from natives:

It is the best countri to live in, most GDP per capita.
In the summer it is 20 Celsius
In the winter it is -5 Celsius
So I can't realy say it is cold.
I'd like to see an easement in getting work visas for people from other countries. If people have jobs here, they are paying for housing, food and other products. All of these items also generates sales taxes. How is this not win-win?
and in the age of 0 to 12 years old, allready half of them are afro-american or hispanic!
i'm not a racist but i dont want to become a minoraty. if it happens, i'm moving to europe!
if you lost your job to an immigrant, you're a loser and your shot was shit to begin with LOL
