Beware! America is being invaded by aliens! Not the little, green, Martian type you see in science fiction movies, but the real thing. I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'m talking about the illegal type who come in every day and every night, by land and by sea. Estimates have shown that as many as 500,000 illegal aliens make it across the border every year (Morganthau 67). Illegal immigration causes many problems in the United States, including economic problems, crime, education disputes, and overcrowding. All of these problems were already damaging our country and illegal immigration has made them much, much worse. Let me begin to explain the problem with a story.

A few years later, she became pregnant and Wyatt 2 received virtually free prenatal care through a government-funded public health clinic. Now she receives free medical aid for herself and her child through Medicaid because her child is an \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"American-born\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" citizen. When her child is old enough, Xiomara told sources she planned to enroll him in the public school system. She and her child receive all of this aid for free, although she doesn\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t pay a dime in taxes through her \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"under-the table\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" job. She is just one of the typical illegal aliens who found the \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"good life\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" for free and without the right to even be here. Too many illegal immigrants like Xiomara are causing economic problems in the American society...
