Your response reflects today's reality in USA. Unfortunately, most of the businesses prefer the second option: $5.00 per hour, especially the construction and agriculture industries.

Now, the US Senate has passed the bill that would provide citizenship to 12 million illegal immigrants. What do you think about this immigration reform bill?

Illegal immigrants broke the USA's laws. Actually they are criminals.

Absolutely, Ruslana. But , very sadly, the RP in USA is very lenient towards illegal immigrants and is ready to recognize the illegal immigrants.Sad [:(]

In order to participate in this topic, I search the bill and read the summary. To be frank, I don't think that illegalize the illegal immagrants is good. I am worried about its effect on motivating the illegal input of a great many of immagrants. At any rate, I think this bill are encouraging the illegal immigrants. This bill give a good excuse for illegally immagrating to USA. However, it is a complicated issue.

That's true, Levia and it is the opinion of general public and Congress of USA.

To really understand the matter one has to understand the North American Union, and the planned Pan American Union. Neither of these have been debated in US congress, but are nevertheless being implimented, without the knowledge or permission of citizens in the countries concerned.
Try googling them.

To the american high school:
I would not compare you to an immigrant, I would say 100% of them do not have such a good education you are receiving through public american school, so why compete with them for a $5-20 dollars an hour. You should be approaching better job standards as I suppose you have got a good education. Unless you are killing classes...
About the general questions, it is complexed, the matter is intertwined with others...as is capitalism.
It is a fact USA needs these immigrants which constitute part of their blue-collar employees, jobs, americans don't like and don't need to do considering high standards of education, so who would do these jobs: immigrants.Removing them would cause losses for american government as their basis would be damaged.
In the other hand, immigrants are not stupid, they can and they are working hard to learn more skills, get a business certificate, stuff like that and that would be a problem because would compete equally to americans and would not constitute a basis level but a higher one.
It's intricated, probably the better approach is a maintenance of illegal immigrants and tough immigration laws to secure USA future.

I am from Varna,Bulgaria and I am a student now,I think is very good point that illegal immigrants can become legal immigrants in 5 years.I want to work in USA but like a student I have chance to use H2B visas and work 4-6months only.
