Illegal Immigration

Illegal immigration is an issue that affects our whole country and really bothers me. I have no problem with diversity and I am by no means racist. However, I feel that it is a true crime to sneak into our country illegally. The statistics on the amount of illegal immigrants our country has is ridiculous.
With every illegal immigrant that comes in, the people who waited and got her legally are made out to look worse as well. It is so unfair to those that follow the system and go through hardships waiting to get in for illegals to cross the border and ‘spit’ in their face.
I also can not believe the amount of healthcare these people get that we are paying for. It is a financial hit to all of us citizens who pay taxes and healthcare to have to pay extra for illegal people who do nothing to earn it. However, I also feel that there is no real solution for this problem. There is no one thing we can do as a country to send back the millions of illegal immigrants that we have living here; its just not possible.
I just feel that our elected officials need to do something about the issue instead of debating non-stop in fear of losing their upcoming elections. Although this will probably also never happen, it needs to be taken care of.
In closing, illegal immigration is a huge issue that needs to be resolved as soon as possible before all of our assets are drained. It is a pressing issue that is tearing American’s apart and making legal immigrants look bad.
