I went on this trip called the Youth Migrant Project for a week and the trip totally changed my life! You got to go to a migrant camp and see what it was like and the houses are as small as a small bedroom. I saw one house that size and six people were living in it. We got to help the migrants by giving them food in a food drive we did. When I was passing out food to them I saw a baby with a growth on its head. I met a girl named Lefelia while I was there and she is fourteen years old just like me, but her life is entirely different. She has lived in California, Washington, all over the place! Right now Lefelia, even though she is only fourteen, is working in the fields for her family. She probably will not go to high school or college. She will probably never get a real home, her own bedroom, or for that matter even her own bed. Man, the conditions they have to live in, for all they do for us, with so little pay, that's just wrong. Some people think they are here to steal our jobs, but they aren't. They are here to provide for their families and they are here because this is supposed to be a free country where any man can get the money he deserves. If we send the migrants away, who do you think will be generous enough to switch their nice office job to go live in a house the size of a small bedroom and pick berries for eighteen cents a gallon? Not me. Not you. Fair trade is a solution that can help the migrants and their families. Fair trade products are sold and the maker of the product gets good money. Call or write a letter to a store near you and ask if they can get more fair trade products to sell. Go on trips like the youth migrant project. Tell people what you think about the migration issue. Speak out; it will make a difference.
I think that the Mexicans should just stop coming to America. There is nothing different from mexico and here.
@stumpyyy- That will never happen. Unless they get what they want in Mexico, then they won't stop jumping the border. What we need to do is get an eletrical fence. That could stop them. And if that doesn't, then a mine field, that will stop them.
This thread has become inappropriate, and obviously cannot be discussed in a mature and respectful manner. You guys need to learn how to respect each other, making jokes and being racist about this sort of thing is NOT funny. I guarantee, racist remarks will not get you very far in an intelligent conversation. Either you debate respectfully, ot you will not be able to debate at all.
