immigration debate in the country. states like energy, new jersey, california has even larger immigrant population. mexicans are the biggest community of immigrants in the united states by a long shot making up close to one-third of the total foreign-born population in this country. as you can see there is a huge gap between mexico and the rest of the pack. america's foreign born population reached 40 million people in 2011. 11 million are believed to be undocumented. the debate over u.s. immigration reform basically breaks down into two camps. those who want to give the undocumented immigrants some sort of legal status, and those who prefer to ship them back home. unfortunately the focus on undocumented workers or border security detracts from a deeper discussion about the economics of immigration. there is a debate on how to best recruit talent from the rest of the world and keep it here so america keeps it's competitive edge. high tech industries rely on highly educated, highly skilled immigrants and foreign-skilled workers to do that. 1,900,000 students studied in the united states at colleges and university, that's 3.9% of the total students. but it put r
