Unresolved Tensions

    There is a discussion about how the retired and those on medicare talking about how they will cope if we limit the younger work force. The baby boomer generation is slowly moving into retirement and some believe that if a reform of immigration occurs there will be consequences. It is stated that if we limit legal immigration there will be less young workers to contribute to retirement and medicare. There in fact would be a decrease at the beginning, but eventually workers who were unemployed may have the opportunity to step in. It is discussed as if immigrants make up the majority of our works force. There is a large number participating in our country, but some are illegal too. Once immigration in America is stabilized and reasserted then it may be applicable for alteration. The amount of legal immigrants in the country must be determined by fluctuations in the economy. There are enough eligible Americans to be put to work. After it has been stabilized then the focus will be pointed towards illegal immigrants in the U.S.. They pose a much larger threat then legal immigrants as of right now because of their involvement in our economy. During this time there may be a gap in between limiting immigrant workers and putting Americans first but in the end it will be beneficial to all who reside in the country. It is important that we take care of our people before we accommodate welcome and unwelcome guest.
