Reflection (Immigration Discussion)

-Discussion on thursday was really good from my point of view. Everybodies key points,arguments, and everything was just good. But one thing I mainly disagreed on during the discussion was when some students kept saying "their taking our jobs." In my opinion I dont see any immigrants taking ANY jobs from citizens. Citizens have it more better at getting a REAL job. If taking a job means picking strawberries, working in the fields, construction working without a permit ect ect then i guess. But all of these are nothing compared to the much more better jobs out there. Many citizens who are actually legal sit at home and chill, while these illegal immigrants come to our country to find a life and cant even get a job at Mc.Donalds. Why do you think many women come to OUR counrtry and give birth to their children out here? So that their kids can have it good. Honestly, i have witneessed and experience many things that have been done to immigrants, and its not good at all. Immigrants come to our country because they think life will be better. It will be much better for them and it would be easy to provide for their families back in their homeland. My parent for example, both immigrants and they have been here for over 20 years. My father is STILL in the process of trying to get his green card, and i wonder why does it take SO long just to process this? It's just ridiculous. All in all I just hope ONE day, it will be MUCH easier for immigrants to live a good life, just like us LEGAL people.
