Overrun
Part1
I disagree with J. D. Hayworth said in his article about illegal immigration “Illegal immigration is a net economic loss for the United States, but is a big gain for countries like Mexico.” (19) In my opinion illegal immigration is not always bring negative effects for America. Sometimes people only see and think about the negative side from things which happen in their life, so do Americans. Americans and US government only see the negative sides from immigration, but I think they wrong if they said that immigration only bring negative effect and a lot of economic loss to USA. Many immigrants usually have their own abilities and strengths which Americans do not have. And those abilities can make America stand to fight their future challenge. Immigrants also try to earn money for themselves, that means they must work hard and they mostly do not care about what kind of job that they got as long as they got money. As we know that many Americans usually only want to do “white-collar” jobs. So, in this matter immigrant become so useful to take over other jobs which need more time and energy rather than skill. And they willing do those jobs with low fare. These things will decrease the industrial cost and that will help many factories increase their income. And this will
help Americans develop their country. USA has a vast land, but number of people who lives in USA is quite small compare with what America needs to develop their country. With Americans current populations number many grounds and areas in USA will be left and being neglected. That is why I think government should consider about immigrants, because they also give benefits to USA. USA will get more labor and people to take care of many things which many Americans do not want to take care of and it also come with low cost fare.

5 words and phrases from “Overrun” by J. D. Hayworth:

This sentence means that many illegal immigrants usually come to USA and become labors, that are why they come and stay in Danbury, which is known as blue-collar town.
Conspiring (page 7): This word come from sentence “A Border Patrol agent in San Diego was charged with
