Hispanic Jobs Hit Hard

Crowds of peopleIt's hitting Hispanics hard...the recession means Hispanics are losing jobs.  And studies show Hispanics are losing jobs at a faster rate that non Hispanics.  One article from the Journal of Business Valuation and Economic Loss Analysis states Hispanics are losing  jobs at a faster clip than non Hispanics. 

Ok.  So my question is, why is this affecting Hispanics more? I'm going to hypothesize it's because of a few reasons.  They types of jobs...and the lack of language skills.

 
This has got to shape up, and we have got to get Hispanics educated so they can take on jobs which are not focused on basic labor.  Also, we need to encourage the learning of English which will make a big difference in getting promoted, and taking on jobs of greater complexity.
