  1. Esta fue una tarea bien. Me gustó más que la anterior porque era más corto y más fácil de entender. Creo que deberías hacer estas cesiones de crédito extra! :]

  2. Me gusta esta actividad de web. Me gusta la traducción inglesa para cada pregunta. Es fácil de comprender. Yo no pienso que usted debe tener una actividad de micrófono. Lo hace difícil si usted no tiene un micrófono. Pienso parte cinco también confunden y las necesidades de ser explicadas mejor.

  4. I think brutal and unsympathetic honesty (and tactics) will, ultimately, have the greatest effect and do the most good to the most people in the case of illegal immigration. ~ Jeff M.

  5. It's good to have perspective but not when everyone is tiptoeing around and trying not to be "offensive" and non-confrontational. I think these kind of discussions only work when everyone feels comfortable saying what they really feel and backing it up with what they perceive to be the facts at hand. ~Jeff M.

  6. I think this is a good lesson to help people gain an idea of what is happening, and form their own opinion upon the subject, however, with all discussions with bery broad, very opinionated discussions such as this, much of the information is biased. Yet this information can still provide a good basis of understanding.

    Part 1
    1. Running away, hiding, bad economy
    2. I think that bad homeland situations cause people to immigrate, or family, but the main reason is probably money.
    Part 2
    1. I think that illegal immigration is kind of silly. I believe that we should help people out, even if they aren’t from America, I still believe that people are people and when they need help, we should help.
    2. Lack of money, poor government, bad home life
    Part 3
    1. The director of this film suggests that we stop looking at border control, but look at the ideals of Mexico and what causes people to come over to America and how we can invest in Mexico to make it better. Also, to have a temporary labor program to gain some income and then go back home to help maintain their lives at home.
    2. I think that he has a great point, that what we are doing right now about illegal immigration is not working, so we should work to try and fix what is going on now. I believe that the idea of having a temporary labor program for people would be a great idea, I think that it probably will have to have quite a bit of rules to go along with it, but I think that it can definitely work.
