There has been very intense media coverage lately concerning immigration and specifically illegal immigrants. I can tell you the reason there are so many illegals here and the answer is quite easy. The reason people come here illegally is because it is so damn hard to get here the correct way. It is complicated, limited and expensive. If you don’t believe me look at the US immigration site (www.uscis.gov) sometime and check out what it takes to legally immigrate to the US. We live in the greatest country in the world IMHO but we have this all wrong. I’m not saying we should give these people amnesty. I’m saying we should make it easier for them to come here in the first place. Let them pay taxes and contribute. We, as a country, are spending ridiculous amounts of money and resources on finding these people. When we do find them we spend more money and resources arresting and or deporting them or trying to keep them out in the first place. It’s just stupid. Let’s take that money and do something good with it like educating them so they can become even more productive members of our country.
