Immigration

Why do you think people want to leave their homes and family and venture to the United States? What is it about the country we live in that attracts people to migrate here? Do you think those attractive elements have stayed the same or changed over the course of the history of the United States? Do you think immigration policies need to be reformed? If so, how would you change the current immigration policies?
