For many years hordes of people have been coming across the U.S. border in violation of existing immigration laws. The number of people in this country illegally is now well over 10 million. Many solutions have been proposed, including building a fence across the border, adding thousands of border patrol officers, using the National Guard for border patrol, and enforcing the law by seeking out and deporting illegal immigrants and punishes employers who knowingly hire them. The vast majority of Americans support one or more of these solutions; a good number support all of them. However, some people reject all of these solutions on moral grounds. They believe further that illegal immigrants should receive the same rights and privileges afforded to citizens, including drivers’ licenses, social security, and health and education benefits. Evaluate this issue according to the criteria presented in this chapter.
