A new report shines a flattering light on California's immigrants.

Foreign-born residents are more likely to have jobs than native-born citizens, according to the report from the California Immigrant Policy Center. Also, immigrants put more into the economy than they take out of it, the Daily Breeze reported.

Los Angeles County Supervisor Mike Antonovich's office criticized the report for making no distinction between legal and illegal immigrants in the report.
Sure would be terrible if the folks who make California work stopped showing up.

Mexico is going to finish the wall to keep us out.

Irony. It's what's for dinner.

No sheet. I might have to get a job.

Srsly (Cuz I'd never get a job again!) many immigrants of the not-documented persuasion have headed home. Every Spanish-speaking bldg. on my block has "For Rent" signs.

When Jellystone blows, we will be trying to get to areas not covered w/ lava. Luckily for Mexico they're well armed.

Crap. I guess the only way I'm gonna get a job again is to go stand around home depot.

Note to self: This time try to remember your trousers in order to avoid all that unnecessary consternation...
