When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” This quote is from current President Donald Trump’s announcement for his presidency on June 16, 2015.

A state’s capacity is highly affected by its sovereignty, legitimacy, bureaucracy, and territory. If a country cannot use its own force of power on itself, then is likely to face some turmoil when facing that problem. A huge problem with the countries Brazil, Mexico, and India is that they have been plagued with corruption and are now dealing with the consequences. There are questions to the legitimacy of their governments and they have changed their governments into democracy to hopefully […]
Since the year 2000, the number of immigrants attempting to illegally cross the border has increased greatly. So far our presidential administrations have been fighting to reduce the amount of illegal immigrants that are in our country, but as we switch constantly back and forth between Democrats and Republicans, or the left and right and some people refer to it, the ability to set forth a strict plan to stop illegal crossings and create permanent systems through laws has become […]
