The second artifact I found was a anti immigration commercial. In the commercial they drew a lot of attention to the fact that illegal immigrants were taking jobs that should be taken my US citizens, not immigrants. In the commercial, they claimed that because of immigrants, American citizens are incapable of getting jobs and it's making our economy worse. However, this commercial wasn't only against illegal immigration. It also said that unless the lack of working citizens is fixed soon, we need to keep some legal immigrants from immigrating into the US, as it would keep citizens from getting jobs.
This commercial made some very good points. It said that unless we slow legal immigration the work crisis in America will only get worse. However, I don't think that's our best course of action. I think we mostly need to focus on stopping illegal immigration and work on keeping illegal immigrants from getting jobs and start trying to find illegal immigrants to send them home. Though I do think we shouldn't stop legal immigration I like the plan they had in the commercial. They said we should slow legal immigration, and I think that is a great idea.
I think everybody deserves an equal chance in their life including the aspect of work, and I understand that America is one of the best places to go for that opportunity. However, I agree that we need to slow the amount of legal immigrants. In The Distance Between Us, Reyna and her family illegally migrate to America. In the book they try very hard to hide the fact that they illegally migrated because their dad could lose his job and they would have to go back to Mexico. This partially gave me an idea to solve the problem in the commercial. Instead of stopping immigration, we should give the citizens of areas with job a crises a priority to get jobs and send immigrants to places with more job opportunities.
