Hispanics In America

Here in the United States many would like to believe that there is only one main group and a lot of minorities. Well those people are wrong and here is the reason why. A once major minority group known as the Hispanics have come up as not only a large part of the United States population but a huge economic help as well. “Hispanics now make up eighteen percent of the total population” as said by nbcnews.com and even cnn.com. They have also stated that, “Hispanics will contribute over two trillion dollars to the U.S. economy.” Some small town places may not see that many Hispanic people but they are around a lot more than you may think. Hispanics have come to try to contribute to the American dream as much as they can by getting a higher education

Well researchers have put information out that if Hispanics in the United States alone would make their own country they would be the seventh largest in the world just behind countries like France and India. To have such a huge amount of a population here in the United States should make people think of what would happen if we used such a high labor force that is basically untouched and give them the education needed to succeed. It would not only fill in the gaps of certain jobs but even have the possibility of having more jobs being made for every other population group here in the United States by more businesses being built and opened just in our very borders. Even those born or alive during the Baby Boom era are starting to retire and the main population group that can replace those retiring, even in the jobs nobody wants, are the Hispanics. Hispanics are known to work longer hours than any other population group which, in turn, makes them a valuable workforce.
The only reason that they are a valuable workforce is because even with them working longer hours they also work harder than others as well. The funny thing about this information is that most people believe that the Hispanics who take those jobs are non-U.S. citizens. Well that is not true because non-U.S. citizens have the lowest workforce participation rates in the United States. Legal U.S.

The only reason this is so is because the young generation of the Hispanics is always growing for the better and providing more reason for the next generation to continue off where the elders left off from. This is why many reports say that by the year 2020 Hispanics will still be thriving and contribute even more for the economy and pay back towards the nation as well. Hispanics are not only taking local jobs around the nation but they are even taking jobs that are through the government and making up for a lot of those work
