Survey: One Million Guatemalans Say ‘Very Likely’ to Migrate to U.S.

Roughly one million Guatemalans say they are “very likely” to migrate to the United States in the next three years, according to a survey posted by Guatemala’s Association for Research and Social Studies.

Ten percent of Guatemalans told the survey team they strongly wish to migrate in the next three years. The nation’s quickly-growing population is just above 17 million, but one-third are aged below 15. This data suggests that roughly 1.2 million Guatemalans wish to migrate during the next three years, and of those, 1 million prefer to migrate to blue-collar jobs in the United States.

The survey’s prediction of more mass migration to the United States comes as Democrats portray the Central American economic migration as a humanitarian emergency for Americans to solve.

You liberal socialist idiots are in for a rough road ahead. This country can't sustain this we are the world take care of everyone. Our utilities and natural resources are already at breaking points. Goid luck to all you idiots when you can't run down to the local market and pick up your basic necessities. Looking forward to the few stupid enough to wander on to my property and try to steal mine

Where have the billions and billions of $$ gone that the U.S. has sent for economic development in Central America?
