American agriculture needs 1.8 million immigrants. So we only offer 20,000 work permits. Then when 1.8million must be illegal to do the work we need done, instead, we blame the workers?
Reason we have massive illegal immigration are laws that make it necessary for immigrants to be illegal. Eliminate the stupid laws and intentional restrictions - the immigrants come here legally.
A friend asked me to help him with an immigration form necessary to stay and work here. The form was so poorly worded (same concept never described by the same word even twice) that I could not understand what was supposed to be written in about one half the blanks. He had to take this simple form to an immigration attorney for $400.
Even the internet instructions said to call a phone number; could not provide any instructions. Just another example of why American regulations make it necessary to be illegal. Most every form required a lawyer - and hundreds of dollars. Just another problem ignored by those who promote fear of immigrants.
We don't have an illegal immigration problem. We have problems that 'those who fear' ignore - assuming they even understand the real problem.
