The "Hispanics" have taken over significant portions of the economy.

Today while driving in the eastern suburbs of Richmond, VA, I saw several
crews working on putting in the conduit for a fiber optic cables (telephone
and high speed data/internet).    Essentially ALL of the workers appeared to
be Mexicans.

SO:  there are powerful forces that want to maintain the "status quo."


BUT:  if the political will to expel the Mexicans manifests itself, they
will not be hard to find.
