Our culture and society may have been founded on immigration in the United States, but today our country cannot handle the thousands of people daily coming into the United States illegally. The need for jobs and housing is decreasing along with our economy. We cannot even supply our own citizens with jobs and shelter without worrying about the illegal citizens coming to the U.S. looking for the same thing. Most of the times they are just looking for a way out of their own country and for a better life.
Illegal immigration is a definite problem in America and needs to be controlled and stopped.
Many factories hire illegal aliens over U.S. citizens because they know that they will work at a cheaper rate. They put out an estimated 700,000 workers a year because they will work for less then minimum wage. It then lowers the job market and wages for other workers and puts families out of jobs and homes. It then puts welfare, food stamps, and Medicaid into demand. Since we are paying for them and they are not putting anything back into our economy, it brings our economy down.
