What Part of It's An Utter Nightmare to Migrate Legally Don't You Understand?
Despite all the talk about immigration over the past several years, it’s clear that many people are still mystified about how the U.S. immigration system works. But if you explain it with pictures maybe people will get it. That’s the approach taken by two magazines -Reason and GOOD- who just published new graphics describing the process of immigrating to the U.S. today.
Both show how long it takes to become an American citizen, how many people are trying to do so, what it really means to “get in line,” and “why coming illegally might seem like an attractive option.”
GOOD’s graphic is on a sheet the magazine distributes for free at, of all places, Starbucks coffee shops nationwide. (Click on the image to see it in a large size on their site.)
