Immigration

� Cannot be ignored as Hispanics spend$140b a year and rising. Worth a lotto companies

� Immigration part of the A Dream,

opportunities to succeed� California relies on cheap labour,

makes products cheaper and morecompetitive as they drive downwages

� K oreans and Hispanics regenerateGhettos. Employ Americans, buyAmerican products. Would not havehappened if left to blacks. They areputting money into the economy
