I am in agreement with many that we must control our borders. It is a national security issue and the drug lords freely pass drugs into the United States. Okay but we have problems on both sides of the "f". The "fence" will not stop the corruption of US Officials who allow these drugs to be passed. These same officials will have a key to open that "border fence" to admit the drug lords but will not permit the passage of the poor illegal immigrant that came to clean up your buildings instead of blowing them up. Why do so many drugs come into the United States? The answer supply and demand. We need these illegal immigrants to work the jobs that our so drug addicted nation will not fill. WE NEED COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM. We do not need to repair the damaged levy by placing our finger in the hole. We need to repair the entire levy. DON'T let these politicians keep you ignorant....This whole smoke screen/border fence is just a ploy to get them reelected. These same politicians know that we need this "illegal" work force just as much as they need us.....Think.....if it were not true would it have taken them so long to do something about it. NO it wouldn't have. The 911 incident caused us all to think....but did the illegal alien mastermind that event. No, he didn't so why treat him or her as if they did do it. STOP RACISM. HUG AN ILLEGAL ALIEN TODAY
Who cares build the fence. The American public has clamored that they wish for this atrocity to be built. Then once all those billions of dollars are sunk into the building of this shameful wall......there will be no money for mass deportations...You see this is why the government is building this wall... We all know that it will not serve the purpose for which it is built....They didn't even build a levy that could protect New Orleans..... the illegals crossing are just as unpredictable.....Build the fence so they will be able to say later well we don't have the money now for deportations.......Also you will see discounts on ladders on the other side of the border. You just need a ladder to safely scale the wall without a scratch.

Although not all residents of the USA feel the same way, there is a very vocal opposition to undocumented immigrants (that extends to even legal immigrants) that are working in the United States.

Many people are under the mistaken impression that these undocumented immigrants are taking jobs away from working class American citizens and taking advantage of the US Government by supposedly not "paying taxes". The focal point is usually placed on "Mexican immigrants", although that is another misconception.

My opinion is that the majority of these workers are ultimately doing jobs that many Americans are simply not willing to do (at least not without an extravagant pay). If these illegal immigrants actually charged the minimum wage, you would likely end up paying 3 times what you already pay for all produce available at your local supermarket.

It's not a clear-cut black/white issue. There are many things to consider, and its never as easy as "kick them out". These are human beings that have families and are essential components of the US economy.

There are several problems, but I want to address the one that literally scares the fire out of me- lack of immunizations. I am not going to sit here and point the finger at one race, but most all of the aliens that are entering our country today have never had any type of immunization for tuberculosis, mumps, measles, chicken pox, small pox, polio, etc. For example: I worked as an occupational health nurse for over 15 years, and in the past 3 or 4 years, give or take, there has been an alarming increase in active tb cases. My fear is that due to the lack of preventative inocculations the illegals have had, there is a strong possibility to start epidemics again after the U.S. has spent God knows how much money to provide this medication to us free of charge.

There are people who are trying to legally get through the immigration process, and millions of those spots are filled by immigrants here unlawfully.
Immigration laws are there for a reason. For one, people who bypass the laws avoid medical exams and the need for a basic understanding of the culture and laws.
Illegal immigration is a burden on American taxpayers. The U.S. government depends on the taxpayers’ money to finance its programs like welfare, Medicare, Medicaid and food stamps as well as law enforcement. An estimated 13% of this funding is used to support illegal immigrants. Dozens of hospitals along the border went bankrupt because of free emergency room for illegal aliens. They cost the United States over $24 billion year in taxpayers’ money. Alone half a billion dollars per year are required to incarcerate illegal immigrants and the Center of Immigration Studies in Washington says, that immigrants are 75 percent more likely to use food stamps, medical benefits and housing assistance than natives, producing at a cost of $68 billion per year. According to a report of the National Academy of Sciences, the net fiscal drain on American taxpayers is between $166 and $226 a year per native household.
The typical Mexican worker earns one-tenth his American counterpart. As it is the case in all Western countries, each individual must be able to pay a certain amount of taxes to cover his use of public services. Families with income below the poverty line pay very little taxes. In addition to these very low tax contributions, the poor are the main beneficiaries of welfare programs such as Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, Supplemental Security Income, Food Stamps and subsidized housing. So if immigration further increases the size of the poor population, it is likely that there will be a negative effects on the public system.

initially, there are individuals who would take the roles that unlawful immigrants artwork at. yet outsourcing remains a good larger problem. individuals have been cheated out of greater jobs by utilising outsourcing that by utilising unlawful immigration, and outsourcing reward the economies of countries like China. China has an exceptionally corrupt and oppressive government, and any funds their financial gadget gets by way of outsourcing would desire to pass in the direction of their protection rigidity. i think of that China is an exceptionally risky us of a, and it relatively is a dire threat to the U.S. very quickly. they're going to proabably triumph over Taiwan ultimately, and that i does not be bowled over in the event that they began conquering the whoel international besides. Outsourcing enables China advance their protection rigidity. So does each and every of the chinese language-produced products offered in the U.S. Hu Jintao and all the different chinese language leaders would desire to be giggling their heads off that the U.S. is financing the enlargement conflict they're going to quickly be commencing, and meanwhile individuals are greater aggravating approximately Iran and unlawful Immigration (unlawful immigration is not any small difficulty, by utilising the way; that's only no longer as risky because of the fact the possibility China poses). Very worrisome.

They don't have health insurance, consequently our emergency rooms, especially in California, are overflowing with illegals that don't pay. There have been many ER's that have had to close. They also drive without licenses and car insurance. Our social services are required to give them welfare, food stamps, rent subsidies, free schooling and so on. That is our citizens tax money, yours and mine. The second largest income of Mexico, after oil, is money sent to their relatives in Mexico. That may not sound so bad until you multiply it by the 10 or 20 million that are here and doing it. My wife got rear ended by one and guess who paid the $500 deductible? Basically, the wage they earn is so low that the rest of us have to take up the slack for them. I think they should go back and fix their own country instead of invading ours!

My solution is that the government needs to allow more visas and citizenship. but stop the illegals.

It's not really a problem. It's just--i don't know what to call it. It's not really affecting us because I know I don't want to work as a janitor, or a waitress. Immigrants do all of those minimum-wage, stinky jobs for us. I don't get what's the big deal.
