(BusinessWeek) — Arizona may be ground zero for the conflict over U.S. immigration policy, but it takes only a few minutes of watching cable television news and scanning local op-ed pages to see how raw and divisive the matter has become in the nation’s political sphere.

Their energy is the elixir of future economic growth.
