Can the United states government ethically deny non-citizens entry into the country?

Question

I just wanted to get some input and opinions for a paper I am writing.

Answer 1

Yes they can. I just wish they would.

Answer 2

yes, and we do -we have immigration judges who determine if people can stay or get deported

Answer 3

Lets face it, there is nothing ETHICAL whatsoever about the USA. They can do what they want when they please as they have demonstrated forcibly for the last 60 years or so.

It's a beautiful country with a great history of open minded intelligent inquiry into the human condition but unfortunately it has always been in the grip of self interested magalomaniacs and dynasties of powerful families.

If they ever manage to make peace with themselves and honour the Native Americans by apologising for the atrocities commited against them, the USA might just have a chance to begin to reflect on the ethics of life.

Answer 4

Yes, no borders no country.

Answer 5

Of course. All countires have immigration laws. It's not ethical for us to support just anyone that wants to live here. Many countries have much more stringent laws than the US. Including income with regard to how much you will bring in on an anual basis. Take Belieze for instance. You must make at least $2000.00 per year from outside the country to emigrate there.

Answer 6

Yes, but who says it was ethical...

If someone wants to be an American citizen...why are we stopping them? Shouldn't we allow anyone who wants to be a citizen to come to our country?
