Immigration from Mexico into the United States

Abstract

There are many races in the United States; including people from all corners of the world. Since 1995 there has been a steadily growing flow of people into the U.S; they come over by hundreds of thousands every year. They immigrate from the South seeking refuge from the problems of their countries of origin. They come to find work and a possibility of a better life. Their desire is to make money enough money to send back home, so to support their families. These people are our neighbors to the south, the Mexicans. There is a problem with these waves of people pouring over the border into the United States every year. The problem is that these people try to escape their troubles in their home country; and are willing to do so by any means necessary. With few options available to immigrate legally, many Mexican people are taken down the path of illegal immigration by entering the country undocumented. One of the pressing questions involved in dealing with this issue is, should illegal immigration from Mexico into the United States be completely stopped, slowed down, or left the way it is?
