Immigration reform is a political idea construed to mislead our society into blaming innocent immigrant minorities for the current problems that outbreak, our nation. According to Ruben Navarrette Jr, a reporter from CNN “ It is well known that this country has prospered through centuries of economic and social misfortunes from the labor of immigrants who have made this country what it is today”(http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F2010%2FOPINION%2F04%2F09%2Fnavarrette.illegal.immigrants%2F&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNE0P6cq3TnUKtdtgTBFLGapSvz9dQ)
. Immigration reform seeks to blame the innocent based on skin tone, ethnic background, and nationality. Instead of focusing on the genuine agents of economic troubles, immigration reform is using nationality as a scapegoat for corporate layoffs, downsizing, welfare, crime, unemployment, low wages, and other unfortunate economic situations a source describes about this situation. Economic instability, rising unemployment rates, welfare, and overall deplorable social economic situations are placing the blame on the innocent migrant instead of focusing and dealing with the actual problem. The percentage of immigration reform argue that our economy continues to fluctuate causing a decrease in job opportunities for Americans. Individuals blame the loss of jobs on illegal immigration, more specifically on the Mexican who seeks only to better there lifestyle by doing the tedious jobs that most Americans would never even imagine doing. For example picking grapes, pruning vines, gathering tomatoes, and picking peaches are just a few examples of the demanding physical jobs that immigrants perform. These jobs require very little knowledge of expertise, but rather a physical demand and will to sacrifice your body from sun up to sun down as a means of survival. According to an article by CNN they ethicize , “ the foreign born invaders where threatening American values, culture, way of life, and job opportunities with their unfamiliar tendencies, and incapable of assimilating to become “true Americans”. If this is true and illegal immigrants are taking away our jobs, culture, and way of life then why don t we step up and pick the fruits and vegetables we enjoy so much and why don’t we intervene this non-sense. The honest truth is we wont, we just sit ,criticize and dispute, in a CNN article they portray, “How the country is experiencing an "invasion" as if we were all sitting in our backyards and minding our own business when, over the horizon, came an army of nannies, gardeners, housekeepers, short-order cooks, chamber maids, construction workers and farm laborers demanding to do our chores.”(http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F2010%2FOPINION%2F04%2F09%2Fnavarrette.illegal.immigrants%2F&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNE0P6cq3TnUKtdtgTBFLGapSvz9dQ)

Other proponents of immigration reform argue that immigration serves only one purpose; and that is to reap the benefits of welfare. A source disputes that, “Immigrants add to the economic vitality of communities where they locate, They promote local business expansion by raising demand for products and by providing labor, technical skills, entrepreneurial talent, and international business connections. For existing homeowners, economic growth and expanding populations increase demand for housing, raising property values”.(http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F2012%2F07%2F06%2Fopinion%2Fnavarrette-illegal-immigrant%2F&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGZfJULNzur2y3AxV_JygM8SQgGNA) If this is true, and immigrants are flooding our nation to live off of billions of American dollars, then why are the majority of our money used for military spending, government projects, and senseless ventures and not on welfare, or on our school system? Migrants aren’t criminals and are wrongly blamed for various of Americans ill from crime to pollution to the quality of public
