Explaining What Donald Trump Wants to Do Now on Immigration

The article I am commenting on this time is Explaining What Donald Trump Wants to Do Now on Immigration. Immigration has been one of the major national issues in America. America has been the most powerful country for over a century. Many people from poor countries and monarchy countries have seen America as a much better place to go to for their next generation. Therefore, many people try hard to immigrate to this country. From my point of view, this is a very good advantage of America to use the labor and talented people around the world to contribute to the country. However, without proper immigration regulations, it could be harmful to the states.

It is understandable that the first concern of American citizens would be the safety of their society. However, from the statistics disclosed by a Video made by Clarify on immigration, it is learned that the crime rate of native born Americans is actually higher than that of immigrants. Therefore, if the statistics shown in the video is true, immigration might do more good than harm to this country. Another concern they might have is the job opportunities issues. Many Americans will be worried that their job opportunities might be taken by immigrants. It is true that it might give Americans, especially the less educated or less wealthy Americans, more challenges to find a job. However, with the development of the country, we all have to face the challenge that the society brings us, and that is how America can stay on the top on many aspects in the world, such as art, music, technology and military force. By evading challenges from the world, the United States will only decline. Thus, I think it is important for the government to create more job opportunities for the people here, but it is also important that the people should be aware of the challenge around the world, so that the people here will spend more time and money on their education instead of luxury.

From my point of view, America has done a good job using the highly educated in other countries to contribute to this country. A pharmacist in Taiwan told me he knew a famous scientist in pharmacology field who was treated so well in America, but he was not offered neither a good environment for doing research nor a good income. Understandably, he decided to stay in America at the end.

There are two things I don’t believe about Trump’s immigration policy. First of all, Mexico is not going to pay for the building of the wall. The other thing is that he will not be able to deport all or even close to all the undocumented immigrants. Many people came to this country to put in much of their effort to survive in the way of being abused by American citizens for a reason. They are willing to make the sacrifice because they have a reason to persist here, and that reason might be achieving their goals or other political reasons from their home countries. Therefore, by putting the undocumented immigrants in the corner will only make them try other extreme methods to stay here and very often these methods will be illegal because Trump’s immigration policy will put them in a more difficult situation. Therefore, I agree with Hillary on her way of dealing with undocumented immigrants by putting them in light and collect tax from them instead of deporting them. As a result, they can contribute to the economy of America; however, because they are not granted American citizenship, they won’t be able to affect America’s political situation much, which is a win-win solution for America and the undocumented immigrants.
