Imagine less poverty, more jobs, and more great ideas. I believe that the United States should convince Mexico to become part of the country. Many have come up with positive effects for this action. According to www.wnd.com, “The U.S. department fact sheet calling for “A new border vision” with Mexico … enhancing public safety, securing flow of people and goods, and expanding legitimated commerce and travel.” President Barack Obama is making an effort to erase these borders. He has made declarations with Mexico. The United States should convince Mexico to become part of the country for these reasons: it promotes security, expands travel and culture, and it will lead to more safety and less deaths.

The United States should convince Mexico to become part of the country because it promotes security. First, the citizens are not worried about getting shot at and they feel secure and safe. Combining these two countries will also lead to safer driving to and from the two countries because people once they get checked, they want to cross quickly if the border was safe, they can drive calmly. Finally, erasing the border promotes less traffic. For example, now people are checked, but without the border, there will be no line to wait through. Clearly no borders will lead to more safety.

Without the border, it will lead to more travel and expansion of culture. The way that it will increase travel is because Mexican citizens will come here and the population of the United States will increase and more jobs will be taken up. New cultures will come in because people will feel welcome and that they will not be discriminated. In conclusion, more travel and culture will coming in will be a benefit to the United States.
A final reason why the United States should convince Mexico to become part of the country is because it will lead to safer and fewer deaths will happen. There will be less people with weapons because new gun laws are being put in place, and there will be a stricture gun laws. There will also be less deaths not only because there will be less weapons but also because people will not need to travel the border illegally. They will not have to be in the desert because they are welcome here. With these two countries coming together there will be less
These two countries should come together because it promotes travel and security, and it will lead to fewer deaths. This will benefit the country because it will show that the great American dream still lives on. I twill show that this country can get you to success. This country will have more jobs, great ideas, and a brighter future.
