Like i said before some of them do pay taxes, which means some of that money goes back to the economy. Some of that money they send is taxed. If it wasn't for them there would be many unfilled jobs out there that nobody would like to do, and that's bad for the economy aswell.
Re: illegal immigration good or bad??
I am all for immigration, thats what the US is about, come on in.... but at least sign the guest book.
Re: illegal immigration good or bad??
Illlegal im. is bad of course cause it makes it harder for those who r paying taxes and they dont have to. Only good thing is that they do all the nasty jobs that the american don't want to do. But yeah it's not good and the immigrants need to realize that wat they r doin is wrong and like get the papper work and become legallized.(^.^)
Re: illegal immigration good or bad??
Sure it takes some time to get in legally, but at least they won't have to always worry about being caught and all. But if they can't respect the laws and at least try coming in legally, then that's ridiculous. Please don't tell me how their families are starving cause I already know and have compassion for them, but it doesn't mean we should just let them do whatever they want.

Most illegal immigrants already here do try to get legalized. However this process is freaking long and you have to pay $5,000 fine for violating the immigration law. In most cases you only have to pay the mentioned amount of money, but in some cases you have to pay the money and have to go back to your country of origen. Hence, few illegal immigrants would rather work illegally for sometime then paying a freaking huge fine of $5,000 and having to go back to where they come from.
Re: illegal immigration good or bad??
Hmmm illegal immigrants...
Its good if, they come and take the steps to become legalized. And contribute to the society. For the purpose of making there life better, making the choice of not settling for less in there poor countries. And maybe even after becoming successful find some way to help out there country so it won't always be that way.
Its bad when, they work for meager wages and don't take the effort in learning our language and our culture. Or if they cause trouble like: getting into gangs, thus creating more crime.
I mean its good in some ways and bad in others. It really all depends on the approach of the person but not the group as a whole.
Re: illegal immigration good or bad??
Anything "illegal" is bad. That's why it's illegal. However, I think that immigration is fine (and in many cases good and necessary). America should make it easier to immigrate so that there are fewer cases of illegality.
