Oh please, if you would spend a minute to read the article you would see that the problem isn't about the migrants; the problem is the city's lack of leadership and unfocused, shortsighted approach to the issue. Migrants can become an asset to the city, but only if there is a sustainable, long-term plan to get them on their feet.

Yes and that starts with regulating the inflow. It’s hard to make it in the city and downright impossible if you don’t have any marketable skills. The federal government must stop uncontrolled inflow of illegal immigrants but make it easier for qualified candidates to legally migrate to the US (see for example the Canadian points system). As long as illegal is easy and legal is hard, the US will spend more than it gets in return.
