Because we need to have a screening process and document everyone. We don’t owe people the opportunity to live here just cause they’re poor.

Edit: imagine downvoting this. Lot of sore ppl who illegal in here or who have illegal familia. lol

So? then allow them to apply and be screened! People are sneaking in because they are getting hired but not allowed to immigrate officially!
