The 411 on Immigration (Extra Credit)
March 15, 2007During class yesterday we had a whole discussion over what we thought should be the solution over immigration. The suggestions ranged from building a wall to making the people who are here legal, to make the test easier. At first i thought that the United States should build a wall and not allow immigration to occur. However, after school i was listening to my mother speak with the salon lady and she was telling my mother how she missed her children. The lady was maybe in her thirties and has been in America for five years away from her young children ages 6,10, and 13.Eliminating hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossings by job-seekers each year would free authorities to concentrate on those smuggling drugs and guns, Bush said I felt very bad for this lady because, she was telling my mother how hard it was to come here and find a job that people talk about how in America you make double the profit, but the feeling you have of being alone in a country with nothing, away from your family kills. After, this lady gave my mother a life story about her experienced decided that i should change my solution for the United States. Many immigrants come here to look for a new life and they suffer while doing it. The immigrants who are here to work should stay and can become citizens after a certain number of years. The immigrants in the United States can not be thrown out of the country because, they are what works our economy. A great solution someone brought up in class was that they should make the immigrants tax payers in order for the government to profit from them.
Furthermore, looking into the issue that is going on in the United States. I read in an article titled Bush promises immigration compromise, states that, Bush was hated in Mexico. According to this article Bush has visited multiple times and has been told to go home. I find this both humorous and sad. According to Bush, “Eliminating hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossings by job-seekers each year would free authorities to concentrate on those smuggling drugs and guns, Bush “Eliminating hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossings by job-seekers each year would free authorities to concentrate on those smuggling drugs and guns.” The people of Southern America do not like Bush and rallied against him when he visited their countries. However, they do not realize that the issue of immigration has became a big deal and must be solved due to the security of the United States.
