The face of the American student body is changing and with it is bringing higher drop out rates than ever before which will have a profoundly negative affect on the US of tomorrow;
The overwhelming mistake with the US?s immigration policy, particularly from south of the border was thinking that those whom come here will avail themselves of higher education and they are not in staggering proportions.
Remembering that the Census had the Hispanic population in the US in 2004 at
41.3 million and that did not include illegal?s and most legal?s as most would not even have got let alone filled out the census form, so today in reality it is probably close double that.
You add the fact that;
The Hispanic growth rate for the 12 months starting July 2003 was 3.6 percent, compared with the overall population growth of 1 percent.
You have a Hispanic population that is exploding exponentially while at the same time the current majority race which is white and more importantly which makes up majority middle class is literally the heart of the nation has only a .8 percent growth rate. Then you couple that fact with 70-80 million baby boomers about to retire a majority of which are white middle class. This most importantly will be a massive hit to the middle class work force and by 2050 they will be dead and that will be massive hit to total white population in the US as well. So it is inevitable Hispanics will be the overwhelming majority race by 2050.
This is where gets is sad for the US:
Hispanic And Black High School Graduation Rates Very Low
The new report, also issued by the Civil Society Institute?s Results for America (RFA) project and Advocates for Children of New York, notes that the minority high school graduation rate crisis is masked by the widespread circulation of ?misleading and inaccurate reporting of dropout and graduation rates.? According to the report, while 75 percent of white students graduated from high school in 2001, only 50 percent of all Black students, 51 percent of Native American students, and 53 percent of all Hispanic students got a high school diploma in the same year. The study found that the problem was even worse for Black, Native American, and Hispanic young men at 43 percent, 47 percent, and 48 percent, respectively.
Then you look at this;
By the year 2030, the U.S. Bureau of the Census projections suggest that Latino students age 5 to 18 will number almost 16 million ? 25 percent of the total school population.
However the numbers used to calculate this are way off they are from 1996 so with the continued mass immigration legally and illegal, the inevitability that that they will eventually be granted citizenship and allowed to bring their families, along with the general Hispanic growth rate of 3.6 they will easily be in excess of 50% perhaps as much as 75% of the student population by 2030 certainly by 2050. If the trend continues only half of that Hispanic student population will even graduate from high school, then you add the drop out rate for Blacks and Native Americans, by 2050 theoretically as much as half the adult population of the US would not even be high school graduates.
Gets worse:
Carnegie foundation for the advancement of teaching
According to data from the National Governors' Conference, "Only 18 percent of African Americans and 9 percent of Hispanics complete a bachelor's degree by age 29
So out of the half of Hispanics that actually graduate only 9 percent of those earn a bachelor's degree.
Thus US is not producing middle class replacements for the dying off white middle class, they are instead it is being replaced with menial labor welfare dependents. The middle class of the US are the class that ultimately carries the biggest burden for paying the taxes that pay for welfare, Medicare, and every other free service.
So by 2050 there will not near enough middle class college graduates to fill businesses needs, and these businesses will either die off or move out of the country. Not only that, there will not be enough middle class to pay enough in taxes to cover the needs of the massively increased menial labor welfare dependent population. Not only that but automation is replacing menial labor jobs more and more so there will be far less jobs as well.
Looking at these stats, if you really wanted to save the US, as harsh as it may seem, and un-politically correct is may seem, every single illegal would need to be rounded up and be deported, every legal here on a visa working here whom is not a college graduate would never be granted citizenship and only allowed in on a as needed basis, and no more anchor babies. The southern border would need to be sealed by what ever means necessary.
Next you would have to get tens of millions of Asian immigrants as replacement for the Hispanic immigrant population you just kicked out. The reason being they have a higher graduation from high school and college rate than anyone else and would give the US an ample supply of highly educated middle class and upper middle class to keep this nation thriving.
Otherwise this country is as just dead waiting to happen.
