Illegal immigrants

Posted by T. Waffle on July 24, 2007

Do you think illegal immigrants deserve the legal status in United States of America? I personally believe there is nothing wrong in it. People who came into USA illegally are doing all labor jobs; practically we can’t live without them. I highly suggest watching movie” A day without Mexicans” Let’s be honest, all dirty work is taken care by either Mexicans or Indians who are from small village or uneducated. I was on one forum where many people were against this issue. They are not trying to understand that no American will moan your loan for $5.00 an hour. I try to argue that working 18 hours shift at Dunkin donuts with $5.00 or $6.00 an hour is no joke. Practically they are giving up their life to make their family and friend’s life back home more comfortable and luxurious. To be in their shoes is not a joke. I honestly won’t be able to give up my entire life in a black room to make others life more comfortable. But on other hand I am thinking that I am looking at my family with the current situation where they don’t need me to give up my life for them, where they have no choice but to give up. May be I could have done it if my family stands where their family was. But anyways, I was wondering what do you guys want to say about this issue!

Do you think government should consider this and give them legal status? Do you think that even though they get legal status they will continue to work under the table or they will take the advantage of all legal benefits? I don’t think they are going to get more money for their work even though they are legal. Will they pay tax on their low income? From a recent source I came to know in New Haven, CT they are issuing IDs to all illegal immigrants to open a bank account. If you want to give the rights to open an account why not give a work permit where government can collect tax! Will it help our economy?
