Illegal Immigration!! still not agreeing with it!!

Immigrants mostly come from Latin America or Asia but are legal while most illegal immigrants come from Mexico and Central America. Immigration can be seen as advantageous in some aspects as been brought to my attention with my latest comments. They increase the number of unskilled workers who work for lower wages. They are younger which would be helpful for the longer amount of time they will be at the jobs and able to work. This immigrants also add the skilled workers.
This does help us in many cases but am I in favor of this? I would have to say still have to say no despite all the beneficial roles they play. In my opinion the disadvantageous overpower the advantages for the increase of immigrants. Taxes we(as in citizens) have to pay for the education of their children is a substantial amount. The low wages that they acquire causes the wages to be brought down to a lower level for all citizens. This low wages also cause the more immigrants to be in poverty.
This among other reasons cause me to not support immigration!!!

I do agree with you that we shouldn't have to pay our money to support the people that are illegally immigrating to the U.S.A. I don't have a problem with immigration but I do have a problem with those that move here illegally.

I am against illegal immigration in America. However, I think the line between illegal immigration and immigration of Hispanics into America gets blurred more times than not. Hispanics that come to this country are coming to better themselves as far as jobs opportunities. Often times they fill jobs that most Americans would not want to or would refuse to do and at low wages. I believe that with proper immigration there will always be illegal immigration and if the only costs we incur as Americans are an increase in our taxes, then that is fine with me.

I understand that Americans are paying more tax to help support illegal immigrants. However at the same time I think about the way America was formed. I am very sure that a lot of important people have ancestors that were illegal immigrants. I believe that if you researched the background of a group of ten people you would find that at least three have ancestors that are illegal immigrants.

I agree with the commentors when they say immigration not really a big deal. we are a nation of very diverse backgrounds and most of our ancestors are from many different places. i still dont agree with we can endure paying taxes for them because that is not a small price to pay.
