SB 1070 Discussion Reflection

The discussion we had on Wednesday opened my eyes because I thought everyone was against it but apparently not. People made good arguements about the bill that persuaded me into rethinking my ideas about it. I personally think that the United States should use the Braceros program like they did during WWII. People thought this program to be a legal way of slavery. But like it or not, we need farm workers. During the discussion someone brought up the issue of economy. With SB 1070 passed, we are waiting and seeing how Arizona's economy will be impacted. But with states with more agricultural labor, a bill like SB 1070 would surely devestate not just the state but the nation as well. Overall I think could have done better during the discussion but I only researched California's impact if a similiar bill was passed here.
