Illegal Immigration is a widely spread topic that has been going on for centuries. Due to various economic conditions and the freedom America provides, it seems to be a very popular place for people out of the country to move in to. Illegal immigration may be popular, however this does not mean it has a positive outcome. With immigration to the U.S. comes major problems that impact America as a whole.
