Blog 4: Releasing Immigrants, blamed it to the President.


"We, as nation will not go into default anytime soon because are revenue exceeds our debt payments. So the full fault and credit of the United States of America in not in danger unless the president put it in danger." - Mark Leveni


For the last few months, media's attention was in the issue of a $85 billion worth of spending cuts in government funding. National security, military operations, health care, education, disaster relief, unemployment benefits and scientific research are some who will be affected by the budget cut. In Huffington post, one article wrote by Lisa Miller, said that the budget cut will be for 9 years, starting this remainder of the year 2013 up to the end of 2021; total of $1.2 trillion budget cuts, spread for over 9 years.

National security was part of the government budget cut, and according to Judson Burger of Fox news, the Pinal county jail of Arizona is experiencing the effects of budget cut, releasing mostly five hundred of illegal immigrants. Sheriff Paul Babue of Pinal County, Arizona said that “ Immigration and Custom Enforcements released more than 500 detainees in his county alone over the weekend... and that the ICE officials have said that they plan to release a total of nearly 10,000 illegal immigrants.” Though the numbers given were in dispute by the ICE officials. ICE officials confirmed releasing illegal immigrants, but said it was only 303.

Though Mr. Burger didn't wrote his feelings or thoughts in this article. He laid information, which is both parties side of story. He laid facts, as if showing to his reader the negative effects of the budget cut. Mr. Burger made a objective journalism by getting both sides of the story. He did a unbiased article; not letting his own opinion affect the decision of his reader. He laid information and facts given by both sides.

In my opinion, obviously the sequester has a big, bad effect in terms of the national security. Last nigth, i heard that the government gave some big amount of big money to a foreign country. In this case, why does the government will give such a big amount of money if the country face a big problem financially.  I'm not saying the government should not help other country, but what I'm trying to convey is that, the government should minimize the amount of money given to other country, they should think if it is really necessary. Other thing is the spending of the government with non-sense, and personal expense. The government should minimize the spending, not the fundings, specially those fundings that benefits most american; like the national security and health care. The government should prioritize the safety of its citizen.
