From the photo in Writing Arguments, I examined the photo of the police officer who is getting ready to arrest a Hispanic who he assumes to be illegal. The Hispanic person is mowing the lawn, so the person asks if he should finish mowing his lawn.
From a social perspective it demonstrates the situation that Hispanics (citizens or non citizens) are facing everyday in Arizona. They face the discrimination from police officers under the new controversial law passed. They are immediately discriminated against and are assumed to not have the proper documentation to prove their legal status within the United States.
From a economic perspective, the U.S. has to consider the labor that illegal immigrants take. A lot of the jobs that are stressful, filled with long hours, and have low wages are filled by illegal immigrants. (mowing lawns) This isn't an example of illegal immigrants stealing jobs, but rather a demonstration of the strenuous manual labor that they have to undergo everyday on the job along with the discrimination.
