Should immigrants stay or leave? Immigrants have been around since before times. Some immigrants come here to make a better life than what they had before. Although some immigrants don't always come here for good things. Immigrants have done a lot for america. Immigrants are makers not takers. While they are a positive net ot the US economy and pay more to the system then they take out. Legal immigrants will expand the GDP and add to the tax base. Studies say that immigrants are a drain to the…
1) The key arguments Grant made to show his support for immigration restriction was that he wanted the Nordic race to secure their supremacy. Grant believed that any other race was inferior and that there should be separation, isolation, quarantine, and eventually the fall of “unattractive” traits and “worthless” race types from the human gene pool. Grant didn’t want Nordic and Non Nordics to mix and create offspring, he also believed that the expansion of Non-Nordic races in a Nordic system of…
The Hispanic culture is significant to me because I am Mexican as well. I was born in Brownsville, Texas but grew up in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, and I speak both languages fluently. People always stereotype us by mostly saying negative comments and making jokes all the time. Being Hispanic defines being a hard worker, humble, the pursuit of happiness, and to never forget your roots. To be Mexican, it means to be proud of your ethnicity. It means that we work hard every day to get what we want.…
Immigration has always been a part of American culture, in fact, it is the basis of how our country was formed. Immigration, both legal and illegal, has become a key focal point in today’s society- especially with presidential elections looming in the near future.

Abolishing birthright citizenship is a much more delicate issue as it could cause more problems than it actually fixes. For now, I believe that we should not get rid of birthright citizenship because of the many problems that it may cause. Donald Trump’s view to abolish birthright citizenship has some flaws, as the actual deportation of several illegal immigrants would cost several thousands of dollars to execute. Trump states that illegal immigrants are taking the jobs of American citizens, not…
Ultimately, we need to understand that without illegal immigrants the economic growth of the United States will crash. Although massive deportations may seem of concern to only a small group of citizens, it should be in fact concern for anyone who cares about the increase in taxes. Undocumented immigrants are a critical piece of the economy in the United Sates because they pay $11.64 million overall in state and local taxes. Per to the estimation of the Institute on Taxation & Economic Policy…
Yes I agree that illegal immigrants should become legal citizens. Put yourself in their shoes. What if you couldn’t do anything? Imagine not being able to get a good job, provide for your family, or have freedom of speech? It is very miserable and emotional, wouldn’t you like a chance to be a citizen? I’m sure I would. Immigrants come to America for better liberties and for a finer life. Illegal immigrants are people like everyone else. They come here to live the dream and become a citizen. I…
As terrorism is on the rise, many people flee their country in hopes of finding sanctuary; but with such an influx of people and the very real fear of terrorism, misinformation and misconceptions are impossible to avoid. It is easy to make assumptions, especially when having little to no knowledge on the subject. Even more so when presidential candidates choose to exaggerate the facts and blow things way out of proportion. There are many misunderstandings surrounding the refugees, therefore…
Introduction In our past and present it has been observed that immigration is a major problem that many have tried to address in different ways, but because of everybody’s different views and beliefs, it seems like every time somebody speaks about immigration, it lights a spark for discussion about the topic. I am so intrigued to write about immigration because my family and I can relate to this topic. I have first-hand experience when dealing with immigration in the U.S.-Mexico border and can…
