Welcome!

Welcome to my blog where I will discuss and demonstrate my thoughts on illegal immigration in the U.S. Illegal immigration is one of the most controversial issues in American society today that basically boils down to: Should we allow Illegal Immigration to continue even though it’s beneficial to them, but has negative effects on our country?

Posits

What is the causal relationship, if any, between illegal immigrtion and the U.S. economy?

What is the causal relationship, if any, between allowing immigrants to settle on U.S. territory without obtaining U.S. citizenship status and the U.S. job market?

What is the causal relationship, if any, between allowing immigrants to settle on U.S. territory without obtaining U.S. citizenship status and still living up to the U.S. morale code of honor?

What is the causal relationship, if any, between illegal immigration and the capacity at which the U.S. territory can sustain life?

Biases:

Even though I am here to demonstrate to you that illegal immigration is not harmful to society, I feel that I must share my biases on this issue. I believe in going out of my way to help people and the situation that the Mexicans are living under is very crucial. There are no jobs down there to help support them and their families, so if the U.S. is so big in giving aid to people in need, then I think we should do something to help them out instead of closing our doors on them. Also, immigrants haven’t done anything wrong in our society. Most of the time, it’s American citizens who break the laws. All they do is work for us and do the jobs no one else wants to do. If they are kicked out of our society, then who will do their jobs? Most immigrants respect our country and are so happy to be here in the land of freedom. Should we punish them for being born in a society where life just isn’t easy for them?

I think you are on the right track, now i think the next step is to write from the othe rpoint of veiw. It will be important to dispell the common idea that immagrants steal jobs.
