Is there any data on how developed America would be with only whites? What about only blacks? What about only hispanics? What about only asians and whites?

but there is nothing that shows the actual source. Trusting someone's source without supporting data isn't something I'm comfortable with, personally.

Well that's interesting because the nbcnews article you linked is not an actual source either. Nor does it link to an actual source. It links to a website of a pro-latino organization that published the report. I guess you are comfortable with trusting sources without data as long as it shows what you want to see.

geez, that's kinda uncalled for, and pot calling kettle black. I've seen multiple reports that put hispanic small business contribution at about 1 trillion, and worker contribution between 1 and 2 trillion - to GDP. Based on the research I've done, I feel pretty confident quoting those numbers. I'm not a statistician, or economist, so I may not have the knowledge to get this info directly from the source, but I'm perfectly ok accepting that these news organizations are as legit as the sources you're quoting. I personally feel like its legit and good, and therefor I am going to continue using these sources with no guilt. You don't have to like it if you don't want. My audience is people who are reasonable and willing to acknowledge that perhaps its a myth that hispanics are takers. If you're not in that audience that's perfectly ok with me. cheers and have a great day.

Hispanics are hard workers. They are certainly not takers. They mostly just get medicaid for their children. There is a rigorous argument for why wetbacks should be excluded from the anlgosphere, but being takers isn't part of it, in my opinion.

It's also important to point out that your argument appears to assume that social service spending is the only economic cost associated with wetbacks. This is a poor assumption, for obvious reasons.
