First we are in no way going to have mass deportations, so as it truly is only a thanks to muddy the waters. If great numbers of illegals keen to self deport, filling the hollow would not be a topic, people around the international might want to pay to come back to the country, so after a short while of disarray, lets procedure those we deemed mandatory for the jobs that we want. it would want to be a unique theory for us to made the alternative in accordance with what's sturdy for this ourselves truly of the illegals making that determination for us

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A flyer for the May 1st, 2006 Great American Boycott events in Los Angeles, California.The Great American Boycott of 2006, known in Spanish as El Gran Paro Americano ("The Great American Strike"), was a boycott of United States schools and businesses held on May 1, 2006. The date was chosen to coincide with May Day, an international Labor Movement holiday (observed as a national holiday in some European countries and in Mexico) despite the fact that May Day is not widely celebrated in the United States due to its association with Socialism and Communism. As a continuation of the 2006 U.S. immigration reform protests, the organizers called for supporters to abstain from buying, selling, working, and attending school, to demonstrate the extent to which illegal immigrants' labor is needed for the U.S. economy. Supporters of the boycott rallied in major cities across the U.S. to demand general amnesty and legalization programs for such non-citizens. For this reason, the day is also referred to as A Day Without an Immigrant, a reference to the 2004 political satire film A Day Without a Mexican.

Some sources have estimated that over one million people participated in the demonstrations High rates of absenteeism were reported in the Los Angeles Unified School District and in Chicago, as well as in schools throughout the country with high Hispanic populations. Across the U.S., hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants and supporters of a liberalized immigration policy, many dressed in white to signify peace, attended protests and demonstrations, the largest of which were in Los Angeles and Chicago. Many, who participated in the marches, waved American flags, although some waved flags of Mexico and other Central and South American countries, and others waved flags bearing the likeness of slain Marxist revolutionary leader Che Guevara. In Chicago, Irish and Polish flags were also waved.
The majority of demonstrations were peaceful, although a Vista, California rally took a violent turn at day's end when crowds began throwing rocks and bottles at sheriff's deputies. There were also two arrests made at a demonstration in Los Angeles's MacArthur Park. A stabbing that occurred near the location of the march in San Jose, California, may or may not have been related to the day's events

While the economic effects are not yet clear, some initial reports have indicated that, while the boycott failed to halt "business as usual", commerce slowed significantly in certain areas. According to the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation, the boycott cost the Los Angeles economy $52 million, only 4.3 percent of the normal $1.2 billion daily activity. This damage was mostly in the Latino community where most of the illegal immigrants live. The nation as a whole saw virtually no impact whatsoever. In that month national retail sales actually increased marginally and the US Economy marched forward at a relatively respectable 2.9% annual clip in the 2nd Quarter of 2006.

Internationally, labor unions and other groups engaged in a one-day boycott of American products called the "Nothing Gringo Boycott", particularly in Mexico and Central American countries It was later reported that this boycott had little effect on the American economy. [ Demonstrations were also held in major cities across Mexico

Absolutely not. We pay far, far, FAR more than the tiny bit of labor we get out of illegals in the form of dealing with the tremendous social problems they bring here. It's like, every dollar worth of labor they give, costs us thousands in prison, welfare etc. needed to deal with these people. To get an idea of how immense the problem is, although illegals make up 2% of our population, they make up 35% of our prison population (and you don't go to prison unless you are a hardcore, VIOLENT criminal). In california, they make up 90% of the felony fugitive arrest warrents and are responsible for most of the murders in that state. Illegals HURT us, not help us.

No, we could force all those beggars that are on welfare to take the jobs that the illegal aliens were doing.

No. We have plenty of unemployed and teenagers to take over those jobs. It's not like we'd be losing any CEOs or other more productive members of society.
