Illegal immigration is a major problem in the United States. From soaring crime rates to lower wages, more diseases, less tax paid, more occupied hospital beds, a shocking growth in traffic accidents and the transformation of the US into a bilingual society, illegal immigration carries with it myriads of very serious problems.
Illegal immigration has to stop, and the vast majority of Americans agree. So why are the politicians not taking action, sealing our borders and making American citizens safer? We don't know, but we can guess. The Hispanic community in the US has become very large, and any political candidate must be popular among them to have any hope of winning an election. They are a homogenous group that's easy to pander to: just say that immigration is OK, legal or illegal, and you will get the hispanic votes.
Even though most Americans oppose illegal immigration, very little is happening when it comes to stopping the enormous flow of unskilled illegal immigrants into the nation. The border fence is a vital part of any responsible national policy, but it is no longer being built. The REAL ID that would identify anyone as a legal resident has been proposed, but we're still waiting for it. Even criminals that are arrested and are identified as illegals by the police are not deported. US prisons are filled to bursting by illegal immigrants who are guilty of very serious crimes.
Illegal immigration has to stop, but little seems to be happening. It is time for us Americans to make sure that the politicians follow the will of the people.
