Jill H. Wilson and Audrey Singer collaborated on the issues of immigration to write this blog. They discuss how the recession affected immigration. They explain how in past years it used to be the Mexicans and other immigrants in the U.S. sending money to their relatives back home, but now their families at home have to send money so they can survive in the recession. They continue on to explain how the recession has slowed the flow of immigrants to the United States.
The blog continues to blame the recession on immigrants but in fact it is not their fault at all. The call for the least amount of money for the most labor, so there is virtually no way they can be responsible for anything to do with the recession. They are just being used as scapegoats as usual because they are easy to blame.
