The "movement of people" has affected the world in two major ways, the first in prehistory, and the second in the past last 510 years or so. In prehistory people migrated out of Africa (perhaps well over 200,000 years ago) and into Europe, East Asia and Australia. This wide climatic difference accounts for what we call "race". The second major movement of people was after the discovery of the Americas in 1492. Millions of Europeans migrated to the Americas, and (very trajically!) millions of Africans were forcibly taken from Africa to the Americas. This second movement of people was so significant (with all that it eventually meant for religious, political, economic and demographic alterations) that it amounted to a new stage of history - the Columbian Period (1500-present). The previous period was, of course, the Middle Ages.

world is so big that the movement of people affect some part of the world/people but not the whole world.

It's ruined schools and health care in areas where people come illegally 'above budget' that the receiving country has set.
Legal immigration brings ideas and needed population and / or skills, which the government of the receiving country can 'invite' by the way they frame their laws.

As in illegal immigration .... long subject .... but the short answer would be, illegal immigration destroys the rights of working Americans, and suck the U.S. economy dry. They do verry little to help the U.S. , and what good that they do is way over shadowed by the path of damage they leave behind them.

DE RAK, IF YOU DO NOT KNOW AN ANSWER OR HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO SAY, JUST STAY AWAY AND GET BACK TO YOUR G.E.D. COURSE. ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS HAVE BEEN AROUND AND WILL BE AROUND FOR MANY MORE TO COME. THE U.S. ECONOMY DOES NOT REVOLVE THE IMMIGRANTS LEGAL OR ILLEGAL. DOES THE GAS PRICE HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ILLEGAL ALIENS?

You could write an essay consisted of hundreds of pages on this question. Maybe you should do it for your college thesis.
