    After reviewing two articles on immigration, I realized more than ever that deportation will not be a good thing. In the article “Deportation can Rattle Economies,” the basis of it was to demonstrate that deportation of immigrants will cause a downfall on the economy. Immigration issues have been a big concern to the public and a problem to the government. Many business owners, and even research studies have realized that the contribution that undocumented people make is needed; they have made themselves part of the society cycle we live in. In the second article, “From Immigration to Short-Term Housing to Street Vendors, L.A. City Hall Faces a Heavy Agenda,” describes how there is a vendor’s problem facing the undocumented.…

Alongside with the Illegal Immigration crisis that the country currently faces; Illegal Immigration has been a constant issue for this nation for over 25 years. Many of the suggestions are merely impossible and hugely costly to enforce, something the nation is not ready to assume.

This theory is rather impossible to enforce, for the US to be able to locate, apprehend and process this amount of people it would cost an estimated of $400 to $600 billion.…

    Over the past couple decades, it has become evident that the United States’ treatment of illegal immigrants is neither fair nor efficient. Since President Trump’s victory, deportation and other strict, hardline methods methods are on the forefront of public policy, more-so than ever before. Correspondingly, I do not support the current tactics illustrated in Taibbi’s chapter as just courses of action; they are not an accurate representation of the American beliefs and values. However, nor do I believe that full amnesty is the ideal, just immigration policy this country should pursue. Rather, there is an optimal center between mass deportation and complete amnesty that must be considered.…
