PHOENIX (Reuters) - If the United States under President Barack Obama grants legal status to its 12 million illegal immigrants, most of them Hispanics, would it prove a net gain or a drain for the beleaguered U.S. economy?

Immigration, particularly what to do about illegal immigrants, is a hot-button issue in the United States. Immigration advocates say illegal immigrants do jobs Americans won''t. Critics say they depress wages and drain resources.

Well, this I think is a very sensitive issue. Its true though that immigrants from different countries have contributed significantly in constituting American economy.

Most of the immigrants go without health coverage and other basic amenities. The idea of giving legal status to the illegal immigrants seems plausible since it would help in strengthening the county’s economy. But is there likely to be another view point in this regard. I’d like to know from my community friend what they think.
