Immigrants Drive City, Mayor Says
in response to reader comment: Bloomberg's Artful Dodge

Bloomberg is right. I have personal experience in this. While I work in construction, there are up to 6-7 different languages heard at once. English, Bulgarian, Polish, Hungarian, Jamaican, Spanish, Portuguese. Contractors, sub-contractors working together without any confrontation about nationality or racial remarks, everybody do their work and finds it completely normal to have people coming over from other countries to try to make a living and they all feel they are in the same boat, when it comes discrimination and share the same opinion when listening to these politicians throwing words about immigrants and how we destroy this country. If you live in the "city", and you had your house re-modeled or built from ground up, I know that you know what I'm talking about. You cannot ignore the immigrants' contribution to the USA, it was built by us ....and you.....descendants of immigrants.
