What are the consequences of the U.S. war on drugs on Mexico?

IgorLugansk [536]

America is at war. We have been fighting drug abuse for almost a century. Four Presidents have personally waged war on drugs. Unfortunately, it is a war that we are losing. Drug abusers continue to fill our courts, hospitals, and prisons. The drug trade causes violent crime that ravages our neighborhoods. Children of drug abusers are neglected, abused, and even abandoned. The only beneficiaries of this war are organized crime members and drug dealers.

<span>The United States has focused its efforts on the criminalization of drug use and trafficker's coming from Mexico. The government has spent billions of dollars trying to get rid the supply of drugs coming into our country. These intervention efforts and law enforcement attempts to control the drugs have not been successful nor have they met with decreases in the availability of drugs in America. There are actually more drugs now than ever before! Apart from being super expensive, drug law and drug enforcement has been counterproductive, it does not work. Our current drug laws need to be reviewed and revamped so that they are more effective or are a deterrent to those to bring drug into the US. The United States needs to shift spending from law enforcement and penalization to education, treatment, and prevention.</span>

Write one paragraph explaining the similarities between a refugee and an immigrant.

Kay [80]

<h2>What is an immigrant?</h2>

<h3>An immigrant is someone who chooses to resettle to another country.</h3>

<h3>The United States has a legal process for that immigrant to seek legal residency and eventually citizenship.</h3>

<h3>Many immigrants, however, don't have such legal status and are thus undocumented. As such, they are subject to "removal" or deportation from the United States.</h3>

<h3>There are 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States -- a problem that has led Democrats and Republicans alike to declare the U.S. immigration system as "broken." Congress has been deadlocked for years on how to reform immigration laws.</h3>

<h3>"Migrants, especially economic migrants, choose to move in order to improve the future prospects of themselves and their families," the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees says. "Refugees have to move if they are to save their lives or preserve their freedom."</h3>

<h2>What is a refugee?</h2>

<h3>A refugee is someone who has been forced to flee his or her home country.</h3>

<h3>As such, refugees can apply for asylum in the United States, a process that could take years.</h3>

<h3>Getting refugee status isn't easy.</h3>

<h3>The applicants have to prove that if they return to their home country, they'll be injured because of their race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or their political opinion.</h3>

<h3>"Refugees are generally people outside of their country who are unable or unwilling to return home because they fear serious harm," the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services says.</h3>

<h3>The Central Americans overwhelming the U.S.-Mexican border are Hondurans, Guatemalans and Salvadorans. Many are fleeing drug- and gang-fueled violence back home.</h3>

<h3>Is the violence -- any kind -- grounds for a refugee claim? Not necessarily.</h3>

<h3>The violence has to be targeted to a person specifically, and that's where things get complicated. Every case is different, and because of a law signed by President George W. Bush in 2008, children fall into a special class.</h3>

<h3>The William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Action Act, named after a 19th century British abolitionist, is designed to crack down on the global child slave trade. The U.S. law ensured that children who came to the country got a full immigration hearing instead of being turned away or sent back. The hearing would determine whether the children had a valid claim for asylum.</h3>

<h3>The law is now cited as one cause behind a projected 90,000 children from Central America and Mexico who will cross the U.S. border alone or with other children this year, a huge increase over the 39,000 that the Border Patrol detained last year.</h3>

<h3>Asylum is a protection available to people who are already in the United States or are seeking admission at the U.S. border.</h3>
