The American Problem of Immigration and Donald Trump's Solution to The Growing Issue of Illegal Immigration in The Country

Immigration, a topic within blurred lines, its significance to the American public so magnificent, creates confusion, anger and reflects upon America's pride and prized heritage. Originating with hundreds of years of tradition, love of country, and cultural determination, one nation must stand strong against the invasion of alien people. Whatever built this nation must keep it from falling to the hands of less important and degrading cultures; even if the United States must attempt what other nations remain too afraid to attempt, our nation will stand against immigration without fear. America will always remain the only country that knows what it stands for; no other foreign insight can corrupt what this united nation stands destined for.

Borders exclusively remain borders when they stand boldly and restrict, even abort, all traffic seeking to break America’s great society. Those who have endured the hardships and glory days, the revolutions and the technological revelation days, those generations and those families who deserve and have earned the right to inhabit this country. One of our founding fathers, Ben Franklin himself once spoke rightly of immigration; he said: “Few of their children in the country learn English ... The signs in our streets have inscriptions in both languages ... Unless the stream of their importation could be turned they will soon so outnumber us that all the advantages we have will not be able to preserve our language, and even our government will become precarious.” He points with wisdom towards the concept of self preservation through the maintenance of a culture by not letting outsiders radicalize and change it, so in all honesty, just as Franklin remarked, why shouldn’t we block and limit the immigration stream that enters our country?

Many people reply with hostility and utter disgust to Trump's idea to build a wall; to them it seems outrageous and supremely idiotic. They think it defeats the purpose of our country as a free nation. Even though this could partially be true, freedom presents limitations. As defined in the dictionary freedom simply implies an unrestricted use of something -- a dangerous thought, if certain parameters cannot meet freedom part way. The unrestricted use of something could potentially cause tremendous and hazardous behavior. So, for many Americans it becomes a question of “Why should we let immigrants have unrestricted use of our borders?” -- a simple question that denotes not idiocracy or racism but immediate thought to the safety, conservation and statutes of our country. If one of the founding fathers of our country, who put tremendous effort into ensuring America’s long term stability and liberty, recommended immediate action against foreigners who threaten this country, we should meet his words with seriousness instead of ignorance and shame.

A certain fearless and extremely intelligent businessman joined the race for presidency in 2015. His predictions and accurate sentiments for our nation reside as wise and powerful markers for our future. He not only cares about the upper class aristocrats but the blue collar worker and the white collar workers alike; he cares about the future of the United States. Trump recognizes the foundation laid by the working class and supports their struggle against the alien immigrant workers who cause wage change and the disappearance of jobs. As a famous opinion article in the Philadelphia Sun in 1854 stated: “The enormous influx of alien foreigners will in the end prove ruinous to American workingmen, by reducing the wages of labor to a standard that will drive them from the farms and workshops altogether.” He points out with much validity that immigrants not only bring economic trouble into a country by driving the good workers out of their home. With America under enormous global economic weight, the idea of it becoming undone from its foundation invites decision making and action that Trump seems ready to take.

Confusion, fear and anxiety strike at the root of our problems, restricting and prohibiting America from blossoming. A president must address these problems. As Trump proposed, a wall would shield America from these problems. While it may not hold in reality as a sustainable model, it would give the correct departments and individuals time to solve for a long-term solution that would keep foreigners and harmful alien cultures out for good. Immigration will remain an important topic for a number of years to grow and shape the United States. Immigration does affect the United States significantly and will yield economic outcomes that can decide its future. Currently America does not rule over its groups and persons, rather its gravitational fears and anxieties rule it.
