Entry N° 8: IMMIGRATION




Should immigration laws be more restrictive?

In many public place nowadays we can see people of different races everywhere mostly begging or asking us to buy things we usually do not want. Should immigration laws be more restrictive? Many people say this phenomenon is unchangeable and that our future is that of a multiracial, multiethnic society careless of whether laws are changed or not. However, it is clear that we must regulate immigration in some way and try to control it before it controls us. The first reason why we should restrict immigration is that it is very often a cause of poverty, but as soon as they arrive in our country they realize that the situation here is completely different from what they thought. Many immigrants can not find a regular job or even obtain a house to live, so they often become poorer than they used to be when they lived in their countries. Moreover, illegal workers are not protected by the law, so the government has no means to protect them from exploitation. To sum up, the government must make sure that the rights of the immigrants are respected, in order to improve not only their lives but also the economy of the whole country.
