Latinos make half as much as whites, study finds

And according to some have twice as many jobs!  It remains to be discussed how Latinos will financially grow. Most of the conversation of Latino growth is a population topic. But Hispanics must prepare to become competetive in the financial market place by finding solutions to raise their job market value.

A study released last week by the California Budget Project in Sacramento paints a bleak picture for the state's workers. California's rich are indeed getting richer, and its poor are getting poorer.

Among many findings of a study titled, "A Generation of Widening Inequality: The State of California, 1979-2006," is the fact that income has become greatly concentrated among the state's wealthier citizens and reduced for its low-wage workers in that 27-year span.

And the case of Latino workers appears to have gotten significantly worse.

urbano411, you have to understand that you have a large bleeding heart left in America who are very happy with Mexican immigrants working for slave wages. They need the Latino to be the next victim so thay can promise them things for a vote. Just like the black vote.
