Illegal Immigrants: Why They Need To Be Sent Back

This data has been similar for decades. The 2010 U.S Census shows incarceration rates for less educated Hispanics men who make up the majority of the unauthorized population is significantly lower than the incarceration rate among native-born young men without high school diplomas. “In 2010, less-educated native-born men age 18-39 had an incarceration rate of 10.7 percent—more than triple the 2.8 percent rate among foreign-born Mexican men, and five times greater than the 1.7 percent rate among foreign-born Salvadoran and Guatemalan men.” (Walter Ewing, Ph.D., Daniel E. Martínez, Ph.D.) Data collected shows a positive correlation between immigrants and crime rates, but not for violent crime rates due to illegal immigration. The crimes that were committed were brought about from Hispanics and White segregation. Hispanics were not given jobs or give low pay jobs with no benefits because of white segregation causing them to feel like they had to commit violent crimes to support their selves and families. All in all, the results are the null hypothesis, that immigration increases homicide rates in the U.S can be

Illegal immigrants have been a hot topic lately due to the popularity of this topic amongst the Republican Presidential Nominees, especially Donald Trump. These illegal immigrants bring various things to this country when they come. Some things are positive, such as a family simply seeking to find a better life, while some things are harmful to the United States, such as the amount of crime among illegal immigrants. In July 2015, the most recent estimate of illegal immigrants was 11.2 million. This same data shoes that 56 percent of all deportations last year were convicted criminals, which accounted for 177,960 individuals (Shoichet, 2015). Crime among illegal immigrants is a problem, and sanctuary cities, which are supposed to be a solution, may be making this problem worse.

According to the Daily wire, local, state, and federal statistics were sorted through to find that: “‘illegal immigrants are three times as likely to be convicted of murder as members of the general population and account for far more crimes than their 3.5-percent share of the U.S. population would suggest’”(Aaron Bandler, 9 Things You Need To Know About Illegal Immigration And Crime). The data shown isolates the crime rates of the undocumented immigrants compared to an average United States citizen. However, because there are many articles showing contradicting statistics, the fault in that is that the others articles trying to prove that undocumented immigrants do not raise crimes. The fault there is that those reports calculate the average crime rate of the city instead of isolating cases.

Giovanni Peri is an economist from the University of California, Davis, Peri said “He concluded that undocumented workers do not compete with skilled laborers - instead, they complement them.” Illegal immigrants don’t have a high chance to become specialized in their practice, being specialized in their employment would mean that the individual would have to have further experience and education. Which means documented workers that are specialized, would work on mainly what they’re particularly good at. Leaving the illegal immigrants relying on documented skilled workers for jobs doing manual labor. Peri also included, “In states with more undocumented immigrants, skilled workers made more money and worked more hours; the economy’s productivity grew.” Two sides are both benefitted, the skilled worker has cheap labor, which allows them to take on more projects, and the undocumented workers now has an income. Contrasting to those claims other people believe that “undocumented workers, undercut wages and take jobs that would otherwise go to Americans.” In some cases, it’s true, but an American has a higher chance of being a skilled worker. They can get a job and benefit from undocumented worker instead of it being a negative effect. The only category undocumented immigrants hurt are “Labor economists have concluded that undocumented workers have lowered the wages of U.S. adults without a high-school diploma — 25 million of them — by anywhere between 0.4 to 7.4 percent.” Illegal immigrants, only negative impact are on Americans that didn’t complete high school. America's public schools are free. Where Americans can easily get an education, and later on become a skilled worker. If undocumented workers are only negative to high school dropouts, then is it really their faults that some Americans don’t have a

There were 74,911 federal sentences in 2014. Out of the 74,911 sentences, 37% of them were illegal immigrants. Immigrants committed 16.8% of drug trafficking and 74.1% of drug possession. They also committed 20% of kidnapping and hostage taking, 12.3% of money laundering, and 12% of murder convictions (May).

of America’s prison population. This poses a dangerous situation for the American people. It is estimated that 4.5 million illegal immigrants drive in the US on a regular basis. This means these are unlicensed drivers with no insurance. We don't even know if they have the ability to read road signs. This is a danger for everyone driving on the road. 23% of illegal drivers were stopped of some type of traffic violation and 43,000 of that 23% have warrants or were convicted with drug related crimes or in the violent crime category. Our prisons are filling up with illegal immigrants. Even though illegal immigrants only account for 3.5% of the national population, they account for 36.7% of all federal sentences which lead to jail time or deportation. This basically says one in every three illegal immigrant is a convict or likely to be one. Nationally they are responsible for 74.1% of all drug possession charges. This also leads to violence with the distribution of drugs. Many of these drug cases have to do with gang members from the Mexican Cartel bringing drugs from Mexico to the US. Now not all illegal immigrants are criminals or have bad intentions but they are more likely to be by statistics. Obviously we can't stop all crime but it would be a huge step forward if there were no illegal immigrants here to add to the

Economic and labor force are the most impact affected involved with undocumented immigration into the United States (umich.edu). Today with over 11 million of illegal immigrants, their impact on the economy can be perceived as positive and negative. However, the main reason to support the undocumented immigration is that they do works that Americans do not want to do. Thus, since the most Americans do not compete with illegal workers for jobs, there is not a significant shift in the wage rate. But there is a small portion of the population who can be still hurt by immigrants doing their jobs for example, those without high school diplomas.

If there were no jobs for illegal immigrants to obtain, there would be no reason for foreigners to come here at the onset of it all. The sad part of it all is most illegal aliens have Wyatt 3 little or no job skills at all, but since they work for the low wages, they are the ones who are hired (Harrison 35). Greedy business people will do anything to save a dollar these days, even if it means committing a crime. Many of the illegal immigrants who come to our country live off of our federal aid and receive free money, when they don't even pay in taxes. This free money comes in the forms of welfare, Medicaid, education costs, and other government funds. Our hard-earned tax dollars are paying for immigrants who don't even have the right to be here. The Texas head of the House Ways and Means committee, Bill Archer, stated, "People should not expect to come to this country with their hands out to receive benefits paid for by taxpaying Americans" (Jost ). He is absolutely right these people are getting something for nothing while Americans are getting nothing for our tax dollars when we do something to earn it. Immigrants pay much less in taxes than they receive in the form of social benefits (Leone 8). In fact, the approximate national costs of immigration, including unemployment funds for U.S. workers displaced by immigrants, cost America $42.5 billion more than they paid in taxes in 1992 (Leone 8). If we didn't pay for these immigrants, maybe we wouldn't

More pragmatically, illegal immigration causes economic uncertainty for Americans. Employers do not know what their payroll is going to look like and how the hiring of undocumented immigrants will affect their business. Moreover, the current illegal immigration problem promotes the exploitation of illegal immigrants for labor. Illegal immigrants, because of their precarious legal position, are often employed at sub-standard wages, without the employee benefits or job security enjoyed by U.S. residents.

Secondly, illegal immigrants fill up prisons and bring crime to America. One reason is that that Mexicans are the second most popular race in American prisons. “While illegal immigrants account for about 3.5 percent of the U.S population, they represented 36.7 percent of federal sentences in FY 2014 following criminal convictions, according to U.S. Sentencing Commission data obtained by Breitbart News” (May). A lot of the illegal immigrants fill up us prisons also committing crimes endangering others. Another reason, is that Illegal immigrants take up a low percent of the USA’s population but in prisons they take up a huge percent of inmates.”Of the "illegal" residents, 20,333 — 74 percent of them — were primarily sentenced for immigration violations, not violent crimes, according to the chart. Nine unauthorized immigrants were primarily convicted of murder, 50 of assault, 19 of sexual abuse, the chart shows” (Selby). A lot get charged with violent crimes, affecting the lives of completely innocent americans. Also, illegal immigrants are hard to catch. “Tracking down dangerous criminals often meets with far less success. A 1998 Washington Post article revealed that District of Columbia police had been unable to resolve two dozen homicide cases because the suspects had fled to their native El Salvador to avoid prosecution. These cases represented nearly two-thirds of the department 's 37 outstanding warrants for slaying suspects. A recent book

According to Giovanni Peri that “While immigration flows, if managed efficiently and flexibly, would bring strong opportunities for economic growth, U.S. immigration laws remain outdated, cumbersome, and rather restrictive. These laws have substantially limited immigration for work-related reasons, both among the highly educated (scientists and engineers) and the less educated (construction, agricultural, and personal service workers). The misalignment between restrictive laws and economic incentives has also caused the population of undocumented immigrants to expand rapidly. Attracted by employment, but unable to secure a legal permit, 11 million people work and have set down roots in the United States, despite great uncertainty and little protection.” ( Peri 1). This means that immigrants are all over the world, making a difference in a community to better the population for the future. Immigrants around the world that come to the United States come to set down and have a better future for their kids and have a better education than their parents did when they were younger. He believes that immigrants have been benefiting the economy and demographic growth for the United States. According to Alain Sherter that “Immigration both creates and saves jobs, the business groups contend. That is especially true for the beaten down manufacturing sector, which has eroded for decades as corporations exported millions of jobs to low-wage countries around the globe and as workers have been replaced by technology. Immigrants contribute economically by earning and spending money, which benefits local businesses, and by generating tax revenue. The organizations also say immigrants provide companies with a pool of workers whose skills are in short supply in the broader U.S. population” (Sherter 6-7). This means that illegal immigrants save and create jobs from businesses that are going out

88 cases involved terrorism. In 2010-11 there were 4,098 deportations. Only 37 cases involved terrorism. This shows that after 9/11 occurred, our nation became merciless when it came to deportations. More innocent immigrants are deported than immigrants who could actually present a threat, even though data shows otherwise. Many of those who are deported with the title of criminal have also never committed a high-profile crime. David Buhrman, a writer and research suggested that, “what [the Obama administration] mean by a criminal violation is someone arrested bicycling on the sidewalk; really they've defined everything as criminal. And they're using that to get rid of people.” (5) This puts immigrants at high risk of being deported, not only deported back into their country, but deported with a criminal

Should illegal immigrants be sent back or should they stay here? Some people say to send them back the minute they arrive while others say let them stay. Most people comment without knowing the facts like what would happen to Australia if we keep letting them in, and why are the coming here? The massive inflow of the Islamic people is the biggest mistakes of the Rudd and Gillard governments and maybe one of the hardest to fix but the effects of this will be with us for years and years .

As of 2013, around 11 million illegal immigrants live in the United States. Immigrants come seeking employment, and employers provide them with routine jobs. They take on the jobs many American-born citizens do not, and as a result these immigrants provide benefits for many skilled laborers. But for years the same argument still stands: Do illegal immigrants hurt or benefit the US economy? The answer to this question is obvious. Illegal immigrants can pose local and statewide disadvantages, however they also complement skilled workers and aid our economy. Illegal immigrants do benefit the United States economy.

Furthermore, the reason as to why they should stay is because some of them want their opinions to be heard by the government. For most times each country has its own way of rulings its own people and some of these methods include dictatorship, monarchy, communism and many more. Although, illegal immigrants have no say in government representatives in that they cannot vote in general elections, they would have to depend on the general public of the same ethnicity to support their views and elect someone who has the same value as them. If they do not migrate to a country in which the people elect their own representatives, they would be oppressed forever and they would not know what is like to have freedom and their children would have no option
