National Issues Paper: Illegal ImmigrationThere are more than 10 million illegal immigrants living in the United States, and every day that number increases by 1,400 illegal aliens. An illegal immigrant is a foreign national who has illegally crossed an international political boundary, whether by land, sea or air, or who has entered a country legally but nevertheless overstays his or her visa to live there and/or work there. . The two main attractions perceived by illegal immigrants in the United States are superior job opportunities and a better life for their families. Many companies in our country are eager to hire cheap and submissive foreign labor. These companies are almost never penalized because this country does not have a practical method of verifying the work eligibility of newly hired workers.

The immigration problem facing this country exposes pressing problems of border control, security and economic stability.

If our country were to hire approximately 10,000 border patrol agents, it would cost approximately $151 million. However, the budget is around $1.6 billion. By having border patrol agents, we will end all of the problems the country faces with illegal immigration. Security concerns and economic problems will all diminish and the border will be under control, bringing our great nation back to peace. Illegal immigration is a crime. Like most categories of crime, it can be controlled but not eliminated..
