If illegal immigrants (who don't have papers and don't pay taxes, etc) are allowed to stay in this country at all, it is an insult to the people who lined up and worked through proper procedures to be approved to live in this country.Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120938535859513334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704142405525357926.post-18274502128176222332011-12-14T14:58:24.746-08:002011-12-14T14:58:24.746-08:00There's many immigrants who contribute to our ...There's many immigrants who contribute to our society but aren't noticed.

People could say that someone who works at McDonald’s doesn't have that much standing compared to someone who say has a higher standing job like a teacher. Most likely people would rather have the person who works at McDonald's deported rather than a teacher. <br />But if you work hard and try and get a green card I don't see the problem with them staying just become a citizen.Kate McCrackenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08823402020947354929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704142405525357926.post-28186888205767984442011-12-07T22:30:59.382-08:002011-12-07T22:30:59.382-08:00It's tough but there is always a proper proced...It's tough but there is always a proper procedure that supposed to be done.

Someone could argue that the person who cleans up the restaurant after everyone leaves is also contributing to society. If you mean someone who is contributing to society in a more influential way (higher position) we would also have to find a way to gauge that influence to make it fair. Also, for the person to have gotten to that higher position, they would've had to lie about their status many times probably.<br /><br />But yeah, I think that there should be a higher leniency and more support resources for illegal immigrants than exists right now.Jennifer Wanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02191089932128022374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704142405525357926.post-35103817038018986292011-12-01T21:21:58.633-08:002011-12-01T21:21:58.633-08:00No. Government should implement Amnesty which give...No. Government should implement Amnesty which give illegal immigrant a chance to get their green cards if they have clean records. For instance, in our reading about Jose Vargas, he proved that there are lots of illegal immigrants who have lots of potential to make a great impact in our society.Emerson Lagpacanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16248553432401918544noreply@blogger.com
