Immigration to the United States

Mr. Editor, you have requested I analyze the supplied article, “Reforming Immigration for Good” by Mae M. Ngai, and determine if it should be published in The Shorthorn. After reading this article and thoughtfully considering it I can say unequivocally this article would be great to include in the paper. It properly establishes a foundation of information for the reader, exposes immigration for the problem which it is, and proposes a possible solution to the reader. Furthermore Ms. Ngai’s…

beginning of the American politics, there have been different explanations on the conservative views and the liberal views. It is very easy to identify the difference between them by just looking their stance on the subjects like healthcare, tax, immigration, education etc. But the basic difference between them is the ideas about the role of government in the country. Both liberalism and conservatism, an essential concept in politics, had changed over the years but the fundamental ideas remained…

John Lee believe that average is not good enough. A drastic overhaul is desperately needed in efforts to change the “average” Immigration Reform. It is way too common that this nation accepts hundreds of thousands of immigrants into the nation illegally. The Immigration reform needs to take a more impacting and demanding step in its efforts. Section one of the Immigration Reform is the best section in the entire reform. Although it may be the best stated section of the reform I still think…

companies is partially the consumers fault for enabling the behaviors explored. For the purpose of this essay one can not say the documentary touches on everything discussed in class or even that it pertains to most topics discussed but it does speak of states laws, laws that prohibit its inhabitants to speak about what one consumes in a negative tone, how a group of companies have striped even the organizations in charge of helping the consumer of any power to do something, how the food…

One way or another we all had conceived a dream; dreams can be inspiring, but many times dreams can lead to disappointments. For instance, many times immigrants migrate to the United States to pursuit the “American dream” despite the risks they may encounter. Growing up I didn’t really hear “these stories” until later in life. Many families feel the need to go to el otro lado for better opportunities and to be able to provide to their families. Both of my parents are immigrants and just like…

The nuances of the language are complex, and sometimes it feels like there is a requirement for people in the United States to use English. However, most sports have languages of their own; people can communicate on the court or on the field both verbally and through gestures. Immigrants receive a great deal of exposure to English through team sports, which serves as…

Stretching out approximately 2000 miles long, the U.S.-Mexico concrete border has its own loopholes where at certain points the security is not tight. This enables people to cross the border without papers. However, this is not to say that those people will not find any difficulties in crossing. A note to remember, the unauthorized border crossing means risking everything it may take because the spots are not considered comfortable to be crossed such as crossing through abandoned tunnel (El…

The United States is considered one of the most diverse countries today, becoming a colossal melting pot worldwide. Most individuals were born in the United States, while others emigrated. Conversely, all of the Americans in the United States, except Native Americans, immigrated here or descended from an immigrant at one point or another. Among these many immigrants living in the United States, around 11 million are illegal immigrants living day to day lives while 8 million are undocumented…

One of the problems discussed in chapter 7 and 8 of Fast Food Nation is the set routine of workers and assigning single task to one worker for the entire duration of their shift. Using disassembly line model in slaughterhouses can be explained with order theory. Order theory illustrates how slaughterhouse workers are functional to the slaughterhouse industry. Each worker is responsible for a particular task, which benefits the industry. It allows the slaughterhouses to work faster and more…

In America there is an immense discrimination against immigrations. Many stereotypes about immigrants being criminals and job snatchers, but I disagree not all immigrants are what they’re portrayed to be. My father was first an illegal immigrant, he literally came to America on a boat, he’s been here for over 31 years and not once has he committed any crime. Like many of fathers like him, he just wanted a better life, an American dream. If I could change the policy, I would allow the immigrants…
