Clinton's Immigration

    With some 11 million illegal immigrants in the United States the debate about immigration is on everyone's mind. Trump has taken the stern standpoint of limit immigration and hold no amnesty. Clinton on the other hand seems to be taking the love and embrace stance. Her thoughts on immigration have lessened now, but she still makes comments stating how good immigrants are for the economy. Her idea is basically an open door policy. Let everyone in if they are willing to work. She claims there will be no break ups of families and becoming a citizen will be much easier.  She also claims to use executive orders to shield illegal immigrants from deportation. Clinton's claims of economic benefits from immigration are valuable, but Bernie Sanders warns that higher immigration levels depress wages. With that, a recent poll taken shows that Americans either want to decrease immigration levels of maintain them. This creates a new issue in the future no matter who wins the election.
