| Abstract | Economic superpower USA receives a large number of illegal immigration each year. The main dilemma is the USA needs illegal immigration for continuing activities of the country, but a section of citizens does not share liberal views. They blame that illegal immigrants are curtailing many of the facilities that they used to enjoy. As a result, four major categories of policies have been implemented with anti-immigration sentiments. Interestingly, the policies that have been taken to reduce the flow of illegal immigration are not meant to stop illegal immigration. This paper try understands the public and private interest dilemma in the context of immigration policies starting from 1790. Moreover, a critical examination of the problem raised a serious question of whether the US has ever took a serious effort to stop illegal immigration. Do police playing hide and seek with illegal immigrants? |
