“In achieving his goal, Duran joined a growing number of U.S. residents of Mexican origin who own their own businesses.

More than 700,000 businesses in the United States are owned by people like Duran, who gave up a paycheck for a few months to study for and get his general contractors license.

And businesses like his arent a small part of the economy: According to U.S. Census Bureau statistics, sales and receipts for Mexican-origin-owned businesses totaled $96.7 billion in 2002.”
