If we made immigration easy in America...
... then there would likely be a lot of people coming to America in search of jobs, or at least welfare. Once they're here, they would have access to free healthcare, subsidized post-secondary education, affirmative action bonuses in both education and careers, and would be able to pull from welfare.
How is this a good idea? It hurts Americans.

1 RespuestaYou forgot the terrorists.

we were all immigrants

what if told you i wanted to get rid of the handouts too, thus making your argument invalid

I don't think we should make immigration easier for everyone. There are reforms we can make to bring in high-skilled immigrants, who would start businesses and create jobs, and there are reforms we can make to keep the ones we educate, rather than sending them packing so they can use the skills back home. Unfortunately, we do have to be selective about who we bring into the country, based on the situation here. With regards to the legal/illegal immigration thing, I believe some studies have been done to show that trying to kick illegal immigrants out is ultimately more of a drain on our money than just integrating them into society (and hopefully the tax base).

>If we made immigration easy in America Then people would be more likely to just come in legally and we wouldn't have to deal with all the associated costs of illegal aliens. Not to mention all revenue we would make on their taxes

1 RespuestaThey'd pay taxes bringing in additional revenues for the government.

Do you mean make legal immigration easy? If that's the case, then these people would soon become legal residents and citizens, which means they'd pay taxes in order to get benefits. I don't see how this is a problem. If you mean illegal immigration, I don't get what you mean by making it easier. Like just getting rid of the Border Patrol and letting anyone waltz in?

2 RespuestasMaking welfare and education subsidies only available to American citizens could help remedy this. Or we could get rid of welfare altogether.

4 RespuestasMade easy by what policy reforms? How much would immigration increase? What government assistance (i.e. which programs and at what cost) would they be receiving? How much would the cost be offset by additional tax revenue (immediate or delayed) or wider economic benefits? And what implications would these factors have for the quality of life and independence of non-citizens already living in the United States, or their children who will be American citizens? All of these are important questions that aren't addressed adequately by ideological rants.
