What are the advantages and disadvantages of illegal immigration?

Question

I'm writing a 15 pg research paper on illegal immigration. Here's what I have so far. Would this be enough for 15 pages?

- Quotes of farmers who say how these illegals help them
- They are doing jobs that Americans won’t don
- Get dirty. Working under the sun under severe duress.
- Statistics of migrant farm workers.
- Started in 1950s with a law passed between the US and Mexico which brought in several immigrant farmers from Mexico.
- Its just that some of them stayed..

Negatives
- Presence of undocumented people
- Don’t know there whereabouts, track record, history of employment,etc in case there’s a crime.
- Several illegals running away to Mexico (child abductions) Statistics!
- Drug use. Smuggling in. This is their living and how much they earn. Marijuana and cocaine available
- Human trafficing
- Poverty

Is that enough for 15 pages? It looks like I need more tho...any suggestions?

Any positives/negatives of illegal immig. that I should cover??

Answer 1

Since you only need 15 pages - that should do it. Make sure you stress what makes them illegal - not only that some crossed a border, some come here under true circumstances and then become illegal (someone comes over under a student visa and just stays). Make sure you touch on that some nonresident aliens work and pay taxes, some provide insight to their culture/ teachings. Their presence provides jobs to the border patrols, law enforcement, department of labor - on top of the jobs they hold. As negatives make sure that you touch on mess ups with 9/11, censuses, and voting rights. Good Luck!
