Interview

Question 1 : What do you know about Mexican immigration?


Answer 1 : I don't know very much about Mexican immigration, but I do know that this is affecting our country and its economy. From what I know, Mexicans are migrating to the United States legally and illegally. They are being employed by businesses whether they are undocumented or documented immigrants. This is allowing businesses to hire employees without having to pay a minimum wage salary allowing them to make more profit.

Positive or Negative Effects

Question 2 : Do you think that this has a positive or negative effect on American businesses? Why?

Answer 2 :  I think that this is positively affecting the businesses that hire Mexican immigrants. I think that it has a positive effect because these businesses are able to hire employees without paying them minimum wage. This is allowing them to stay open and earn monthly profit that will help them survive during this economy.


Question 3 : Do you think that this has a positive or negative effect on the American people? Why?

Answer 3 : I think that for the American people, Mexican immigration has a negative effect on the. I believe that it has a negative effect because these immigrants are taking jobs that could go to an American that needs a job to survive during this economy. During this time, many people are unemployed, and we need those jobs that the immigrants are taking to go to these Americans that need a job. These Americans are unable to provide for their families and that is really upsetting.


Question 4 : What do you think the government can do to decrease the amount of undocumented immigrants?

Answer 4 : In order to decrease the amount of undocumented immigrants, i think that the government needs to buckle down on security. We need to control who is let into our country or something bad is going to happen. We can't wait for something to happen or it will be too late.
