I think that maybe there could have been more information
added to this and your opinion as well. Trump
says one thing and never makes up his mind and next thing you know he says
another thing. He did mainly mean that he wanted to keep drugs and gangs out
but he also wants to keep any person of color out of the United States. All the
refugee places are full but it’s because the government doesn’t want to help
other people. If they were to help them get jobs so that they could afford to at
least have a place to stay the refugee centers would not be full. If the government
would allow them to live the “American dream” people here would be happy. The
other solution could be having better security in the borders but some people
who work for the government are corrupt. Having all the security in this world
will not keep people from coming to the united states because all the “bad”
people can buy off a border patrol officer to let them bring people to the country.
I’ve heard all kind of stories from people who are immigrants about them witnessing
corrupt government workers. Third, if this country would allow people who are
actually a good human being and want to have a good future apply for some kind of
document that could make them legal they would have better lives. It’s unfair
that some people can’t be legal even after so many years of living here paying
their taxes and doing everything right but the person who has committed crimes
does get that privilege. This country will always have people immigrating over
because of what this country promises to live “The American Dream”.
blog 5: Immigrants a Problem? What is the Solution?
Original Blog From Classmate Elena McAdams: So recently in America, there has been a huge problem of the federal government being overwhelmed by central American refugees arriving by the thousands. There are two reasons for that. One reason is that president Donald Trump‘s policies sent the signal that this may be the last and best chance to find safety in the United States and second, the existing laws make handling immigrants from America more complicated for administration. On Friday, on the news, Trump declared to the refugees that “the system is full. We can’t take you anymore… Our country is full so turn around” This was declared during a public discussion with border security officials in El Centro California. Trump was primarily speaking about the terms of drugs and gangs. He also talked about the limitations of military forces that he has sent to reinforce border enforcement agents in dealing with the immigrants. Continuing this speech President Trump declared, “they rush our border and we have military and they are great military people but they can’t act the way they would under other conditions and there’s not a lot that they can do”. President Trump is trying to find solutions to this growing problem of immigrants who are trying to come to America. He had thought about closing the border of Mexico and America, but that might be detrimental to the United States trading. A lot of American produce is actually from Mexico and this would cause a decline in our trading and access to bulk produce. President Trump has announced that he will postpone the closing of the Mexican border until 2020 that is all we know about this situation so far.
