How do we each feel about the current situation on immigration? A large number of Americans are highly in favor of tightening the borders. At the same time though, most Americans also feel, the illegal immigrants already here should be dealt with fairly, thus given a break. What should we do with them to treat them fairly enough compared to the immigrants who went through all the legal processes to become American citizens? Is this fair to the immigrants who went through all the legal processes to become American citizens? Interesting questions to think about with no easy answers for anyone. However, an overwhelming 69% of Americans feel immigration should be decreased compared to only 7% of Americans who feel it should increased.
How Many Illegal Immigrants Are There in the United States?
The Bush Administration still continues to remain mute on exactly how many illegal immigrants there are in the United States. However, presently, it is estimated there is between 21-38 million undocumented, illegal immigrants, working, living in the United States. This is a dramatic increase from several years ago, where illegal immigrants in the United States stood at 11.6 million. There is also an estimated 664,000 fugitive illegal immigrants in the United States. How did this happen? Who should be held most responsible? Are politicians mostly to blame or are we all equally responsible concerning the current, sensitive situation on immigration? Interesting questions with no easy answers for anyone.
