i said

The reason that they have lower incomes and therefore more eligable for economic aid is they don't have the nessicary education or the means to get that education.

you said

The poverty rate for immigrants is 50 percent higher than that of natives, with immigrants and their U.S.-born children (under age 21) accounting for 22 percent of all persons living in poverty." ....The percentage of immigrants without a high school diploma is 30 percent, more than three times the rate for natives. Also, of all persons without a high school education, one-third are now immigrants."

thanks for backing me up. And the information regarding the unemployment rate amoung immigrants i found in an EBSCO magazine search at my schools library and if i can find it again i will relay it to you. Also for kevin, he.
