Implications post

So according to my psychology professor whenever humans are giving a problem to solve they will most likely to solve the problem using the simplest devices they can find that give the most benefits. So lets me think about the immigration problem in simplest terms and maybe a solution will arise.

The simple truth is that there those here that are illegal aliens. Illegal aliens are...illegal and breaking the law. However each illegal is also a human being and has certain human rights that we as a nation have to agree with. Most in the U.S. want these illegals to either go through the process of becoming legal or leave the country. Most of those on the other side of the line think it is too hard to become a citizen. My thinking is that one side has to stand up and be strong. Nothing is being done about this situation because we are still debating on who is right.

My history teacher used to tell me that history was written not by those who were right but by those who won and were strong. It didn't matter if they were wrong, they were strong enough to tell others that they were the right way. The same thing has to be done here. If this is not done what happens?

By not doing anything about this illegal immigration it puts up the image that America is become soft and anybody can exploit its systems. America has been exploited in this way for many years and the problem is partly because of America's slack approach to the issue. If this problem is not dealt with then the government resources will continue to be drained, jobs that could be taken by citizens are taken away, taxes owed to the government will not be paid. I know it is going to be hard to make a decision. No big decision is ever easy and someone always undoubtedly gets hurt.
