Why Do People Immigrate

I think that people immigrate because they want to have a better life, have more of opportunity to get that better life. The main reasons that people immigrate are for economic, Especially when the person immigrating comes from another country that my have a high poverty rate. As
well as professional to find employment, Political to escape a corrupt government. Seeing how much we have in America I can understand why people would want to immigrate here legal or not. If people actually knew what they had in comparison to poorer countries, they as well would understand why the people would try to get into the country. Most of all the only reason I think people immigrate is because they want a better life than they have right now. This is why I think people immigrate.

Crossing the Mexico border

The first thing I noticed when crossing the U.S.-Mexico border was security. Mainly because it took me less than 30 seconds to get into the country of Mexico. I also noticed the view was different. Instead of having spaced out homes and buildings. Everything was compact as far as the eye could see. Many people of all ages were eager to sell you something. From chicklets to fake rolex watches. The people were very kind, the city was busy and conjested. Something that I noticed about law and order in Mexico was the police officers did what they wanted. When leaving mexico I noticed that while taking 30 seconds to enter into Mexico, it took over 45 minutes just to get enter the U.S. Customs building to return to the U.S.This is what I noticed when I entered and exited Mexico, yeah.
