/^t/The regulations concerning the people coming illegally to America state that anyone who comes from another country, does not owe a green card and works is to be sent back home immediately. The point of view of the government can be understood. It is phisically impossible to receive anybody who wants to live in the USA since there are so many of those who do. However, from the point of view of the immigrants, they are much better here where they stay even if denied essential rights. Even if restricted by the fact of their being the "illegals" they feel free. They do not suffer from political persecution. They are not forced to believe what they do not want to believe in. They feel happy even if they change the nightmare of being persecuted for the nightmare of being handed over.
