    On the opposite side of the debate, the cost of illegal immigrants accessing health care in the United States is lower than the average cost of an insured American citizen because of the costs of testing and procedures performed.

    For years, America has been known as The Great Melting Pot. This is due to the mass amounts of immigrants that have congregated in the country since the 18th century. Immigration is what has defined America since its beginning: America began growing from the Quakers and Protestants that fled England from the religious oppression that they faced there. It continued to grow with the Irish that were looking for work and a better opportunity for their children. And it continues to grow with people from all over the world who seek refuge from political, religious, and economical oppression, just like those first immigrants. However, if America’s borders are closed, millions would be left in the dark to fend for themselves.

Smith then continues to explain that both democrats and republicans agree it is time for some changes, but they cannot seem to agree on what those changes are. Democrats are moving to make these illegal immigrants citizens, while republicans, “remained opposed to granting any kind of permanent status to those here illegally”. Republicans are being swayed because as John McCain said in a TV interview, “We are losing dramatically the Hispanic vote, which we think should be ours”. Yet with that said Smith goes…
