Immigration, Refugees, and the Effect of Foreigners on our Country Due to the fact that foreigners have relatively easy access to our country, both legally and illegally, they put American workers’ economic interests and American safety at risk. Our country was originally built on immigrants moving their families during the colonial era, but we are past the point of needing that. Now the United States has over 300 million citizens and there is no need for more unnatural growth. Immigrants can…
Multiculturalism In the United States, countless Americans do not recognize that immigrants have numerous difficulties progressing onto U.S. soil and merging their cultures with the American populous. In, “Imagining the Immigrant: Why Legality must give way to Humanity” by John J. Savant and “The Perpetual Border Battle” by Mark Krikorian, the authors explain how immigrants, may very well be, the continuance of our [civilization]. Consequently, immigrants should integrate their cultures with…
The experiences the East and West immigrants encountered were extremely distinct to each other as there was no form of government which considered the concept of justice and equality. The government formed and interrogatory system in order to inspect if a certain immigrant is allowed to immigrate into the United States, yet it practiced unjust actions. Immigration to Ellis Island was completely diverse to the immigration in Angel Island as only around 5% of the immigrants were rejected in Ellis…
Lately I have been watching the news and was shocked with what President Donald trump explained . I am not just atrocious about how bad he speaks about people like immigrants, for example, but the fact that of what he said about new policies of immigration. The first reason why I disagree with President Trump is that if he does send every immigrant back to their native countries it will cause problems in our work economy. One of the reasons why United States was made by immigrants and still…
The new president's talk of a crackdown on illegal immigrants makes it sound as if they had an easy ride under President Obama, but there is plenty of evidence to suggest the opposite is true. Between 2009-15, the Obama administration deported more than 2.5 million people - most of whom had been convicted of some form of criminal offence or were recent arrivals - leading some to label President Obama the "deporter-in-chief". But an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants still live in the…
Controlling immigration, while enforcing legal migration, along with continuing to protect the border, is an incredibly difficult realm to not only control but to properly enforce as well. Throughout the United States’ history, as a country created by immigrants, the U.S. has made it a point to continue to allow legal migration, whether it be with work, school, or simply travel visas. Starting with the implementation of the Immigration Reform and Control Act, passed in 1986, the country had…
For a very long time immigration has always been a topic of discussion. Today illegal immigrants is one of the biggest issues in the United States. There have always been talk on how the American government could control their borders and the number of immigrants, legal or illegally, move into the United States. There have been many immigrants that have lived almost all their lives in the states, but are not considered American citizen or resident. This problem has been occurring from the…
The United States for years has been known for the different influences its taken over the years of its existence. The first amendment of the United States constitution makes it illegal to establish a main religion for the county. This allows people to practice what they choose freely. The first amendment also prevents laws to be created that take away citizens rights for freedom of speech. The foundation of the United States was created to uphold the beliefs and ideologies of its people equally…
With hundreds and thousands of desperate faces that is being seen by doctors, organ waiting list and organ transplantation have set people’s lives in risk for their health and cost. An average of 18 people die each day awaiting an organ transplant (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, 2014). Anybody that has had to wait for an organ donor knows the challenges and stress of the condition. Organ transplant surgery entail vast amounts of money or full insurance coverage and finding an…
A border is a line that divides places such as towns, counties, states, and countries. It is different from the word frontier because the meaning for the Spanish word “la frontera” is the area that the border cuts off. A border can be an outline to keep things separated where as a frontier or boundary is the actual area being outlined. Borders help keep the world organized and defined. Every community has their own personal boundary separated by a border. Borders help determine where people are…
