Six in 10 Americans Unhappy With Immigration Level

Dissatisfaction with the current level of immigration has risen six percentage points since 2014.

Six in 10 American adults — or 60 percent — say they are dissatisfied with the level of immigration, and a majority of those want fewer people coming in the United States, according to a new Gallup poll. Dissatisfaction is even spiking among Democrats.

This spike in unhappiness about immigration — up from 54 percent in 2014, but considerably lower than the high of 72 percent in 2008 — comes on the heels of President Obama’s executive actions on immigration but before congressional Republicans flubbed efforts to tighten border controls. The poll was conducted in the first full week of January. Leaders in the GOP-controlled House Monday failed to put a border security bill up for a vote.

Gallup's finding indicate a mere 33 percent of U.S. adults are satisfied with immigration levels.

Then look at the "who's working" #s and compare their #s to ours.Looks like someone forgot how to roll up their sleeves.Better yet,compare who is willing to work vs who isn't.Those stats are identical and very revealing as to why they are here.They want to work,and they rarely bitch and complain like we do!
