US is the new Mexico!!

Poverty! This will always be the main concern for America and we are increasing in the number of people below the poverty line everyday. The cause for this, among other things, is immigration. Currently 15 million people are living in "severe" poverty and it seems as if nothing is being done about it.(http://library.cqpress.com/cqresearcher/cqresrre2007090700). 'Coincidentally', United States of America was ranked second highest in having the most poverty level people! Can anyone guess who came first? Mexico and I'm not trying to be heartless because I know they came over here for a better life than what they had. But in doing this Hispanics are making America a terrible place to live for true citizens for very low costs and minimal consequences. In the last 20 years, the population size for Hispanics doubled making them the first largest minority group in the US mainly due to immigration and high birth rates. They are expected to double in the next 20 years by the Census Bureau(http://library.cqpress.com/cqresearcher/cqresrre2003101700). Even though this is true they contribute the largest percentage of their population to having the lowest income to blacks and whites. Fifty percent make less than 30,000 dollars a household while 42% of blacks make the same amount (http://library.cqpress.com/cqresearcher/cqresrre2003101700). In the South the numbers of immigrants are skyrocketing, just in NC there has been a 479% increase within 12 years(http://library.cqpress.com/cqresearcher/cqresrre2003101700). This is alarming that such an increase can happen in this short amount of time. A better life is what they want but at what price do we have to pay for them to have it?
