Arizona and its immigration problem

Is Arizona right or wrong in passing a law that requires that people carry documentation all the time? Now this causes an uncomfortable feeling to all people of color. Though the news is all about Latinos, Asian Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese, East Europeans, and all other immigrants wonder whether they will be targeted. Moreover the police officers of Arizona are not all of one particular race. So one of these days the governor herself may be called upon to prove citizenship. This law is going to be awfully annoying to every one, I can bet.

Now comes the problem of immigration. I am appalled how all the critical jobs are held by immigrants. Plumbing, electrical, machining, farming, loading and unloading, janitorial, etc are done by Mexicans, the Asians run hair salons, laundries, do nursing, clerical, and other such jobs, and the Indians do the programming. Now the European and African Americans usually either do a good job like managerial or technical jobs, else they do not work at all and live off government money.

A lot of American businesses will be critically affected if they do not have illegal immigrants. This is a reality that law makers must face. Temporary work permit may solve the problems. No one is illegal then. But at the same time temp work permits may not attract Mexicans to come to America.
