Illegal (entering into a country) has been a widely discussed topic in politics in the US. Some argue that people (who enter a country) are necessary as they take the jobs Americans do not wish to take, and that they therefore should be given permission to stay in the country. Others however, believe that they should be very badly punished seeing as what they are doing is illegal, arguing that the illegal people (who enter a country) are taking away jobs from Americans and not paying their taxes. Although there are arguments supporting the claim that (not having legal papers/not recorded anywhere) people (who enter a country) should be punished, there are many arguments (against something else) for why they should be allowed to stay. The extent …show more content…
One of the main arguments against illegal (entering into a country) is that there will be fewer jobs left for the Americans as they demand higher (moneys paid for working) compared to the illegal people (who enter a country) and it is only helpful for the companies, rather than the country as a whole. An argument (against something else) for this is that most of the illegal people (who enter a country) take the jobs Americans do not want. And although many Americans may be (without hope/very upset) for work after the major money-based problem, there are still many who do not want to do labour or low-paid jobs, such as working at a farm. Many illegal people (who enter a country) however, are happy as long as they find work. It is therefore necessary for them to be legalised so that there are enough people within these fields of work. Without the (all the workers in a company or country) of 'illegal ' workers, much of the American money-based life would suffer or come to a stop, because they are mainly located in huge numbers in just a few states, such as California, Texas, Florida and …show more content…
Another argument is that illegal people (who enter a country) have a negative effect on the (process of people making, selling, and buying things) as they do not pay taxes and take benefits they do not deserve. However, in a study done by the Institute of Taxation and Money-based Policy (ITEP), it was found that illegal people (who enter a country) do pay taxes, with a guess (of a number) of $10.6 billion in 2010, meaning they are paying an average of 6.4 per cent of their income. To compare they found that the top 1% paid 5.6% of their total income in taxes, this way (not having legal papers/not recorded anywhere) people (who enter a country) actually pay more in taxes compared with their income, than their similar person or thing. A third reason for legalising illegal people (who enter a country) is that everyone deserves equal rights as human beings. Many people move from their own country to the US because they look (for) better opportunities, freedom, and rights. An example is Mexicans, they account for more than half of the illegal people (who enter a country) in the US with some 6.1 million people. Almost half of Mexico 's population lives in poorness, which is one of the major factors for why Mexicans move, they wish to provide for their family and for some the only way to do that is by finding work in
Statistics uphold that undocumented immigrants are contributing to this nation by paying their taxes and the only obstacle that does not encourage more immigrants to participate is the fear of being deported. By creating a pathway to citizenship, more money would be collected from immigrants by requiring them to pay taxes. The notion that undocumented immigrants are taking American jobs has also been discredited by the data showing that foreign-born and native-born employees’ unemployment rates are insignificantly different by a fraction of a percentage. In addition, undocumented immigrants are generally the only ones who are willing to accept arduous jobs. The majority of undocumented immigrants are uneducated, but what they lack intellectually is made up by the long hours of hard work they are willing to endure.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of immigrants, from around the world come into the United States. These immigrants come to America for better life, some immigrants are refugees, escaping persecution and civil wars in their home country. Many immigrants believe that United States is the best place to go. I think allowing Immigrates to United States can benefit America because allowing Immigrates to come to America would have an increase on Economy and illegal immigrants already pay taxes and America is the country of immigrants. I think Immigrants should be allowed to come to America because allowing immigrants to come to America would have an increased on economy.
Money could be the most important thing that makes a nation really powerful and the US is an excellent example of how important is to have a good economy. Like Americans and other legal people, undocumented people help to hold and increase the U.S. economy in a positive way. [4] Cesar Maximiliano Estrada, Senior Managing Director and Head of Private Equity, in his article “How Immigrants Positively Affect the Business Community and the U.S. Economy” explains that immigrants have always been vital to the U.S. economy. In 2013, for example, immigrants added $1.6 trillion to total U.S. gross domestic product, or GDP. Economists have found that immigrants complement native-born workers and increase the standard of living for all Americans.
Hundreds or thousands immigrates legal or illegal come to the United States for jobs. Some immigrates come because they need money for their family and other's come because they want to danger us. Immigrates should be allow to come to the United States because they're better jobs there ,and also they need money for their family. For example, many immigrates struggle to pay for their family needs and it's really hard because I had a friend that her parents had to move to the United States for better jobs. Her parents couldn't pay the bills in Mexico so the only way to get money and better jobs are in the United States.
Illegal immigration has raised the question: should illegal aliens stay in America? By letting them stay, they pose as a potential threat of copious issues. Some Americans postulate that everyone deserves a chance at a better life, and then there are some Americans that do not desire foreign invaders inside their home country. The issue is that many immigrants are drawn to America like a magnet because of the American dream. The conception of this is to live a vibrant and prosperous life, by hard work and dedication.
According to a study released last year by the Pew Hispanic Center, as of 2008, 11.9 million illegal immigrants lived in the United States, more than triple the 3.5 million who lived in the country in 1990 (Izumi). Immigration throughout the years has become a major issue in the U.S because of too many immigrants entering the country year after year. The U.S has come to a point whether they should deport the immigrants back to their country. Believe it or not, these immigrants are a big contribution to the U.S. If it wasn’t for them, the U.S economy wouldn’t be where it stands now.
Illegal Immigrants come to America to have a better opportunity for their family and better job opportunities. U.S. employers will hire illegal immigrants to a lower pay then they would have to pay a legal citizen, this employment is illegal under a law in 1986. Some companies will accept fake employment documents and hire illegal workers because there is no requirement on presenting evidence on
How Illegal Immigration Benefits America Illegal immigration has been an issue that people still can’t figure out what to do about,while some people think that it’s bad for the country, others think that illegal immigration actually helps America in many different ways. I believe that illegal immigration should be allowed in America for the economy,families, and to prove that immigration does not pose a terrorist threat to America. Some people may believe that illegal immigration does not help in any way the economy,but I have to disagree.
There are a lot of controversial issues surrounding this country. Whitin all those controversial issues there 's the “issue” of illegal immigration. I 'm sure we 're all familiar with the term “illegal immigration”. We’re always told about how bad it is. Don 't get me wrong, it is bad but it 's not done with the intention of hurting someone else but to try and change their future.
Illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay in the U.S.A. and become citizens because they are heavy workers, want a better life and most importantly they contribute to the U.S. economy. Immigrants simply want to obtain an opportunity to live and work in this great country. With all this in mind it is clear that they deserve a path to citizenship. Countless people say illegal immigrants are damaging the U.S. economy; however, they are contributing immensely by paying their taxes.
Have you ever thought that this country, the United States of America is secured? Sorry to burst your bubble, but it never was, due to illegal immigrants coming from another country without a valid pass. Illegal Immigrant should not be allowed in the United States. There are many reasons why Illegal Immigrants should not be allowed, firstly Illegal Immigrants take jobs from Americans and Legal Immigrants. The next reason is because Illegal Immigrants cause more crimes to be committed.
Our policies on illegal immigration can diminish the problem by enforcing immigration laws, revoking birthright autonomy, and demanding proof of citizenship when applying for social services. Immigration has become a major problem in this country and needs to be restricted. Our economic implications would be beneficial towards the U.S. economy. Without the crutch of illegal immigrants holding us back, our U.S. economy can prosper more than ever. Due to the current economic slowdown, labor demands had been reduced and has forced many out of work.
In my experience, legal immigrant workers work harder and are more productive than native born U.S. citizens when it comes to physical labor. If a U.S.-born citizen gets beat out for a job because they were not as motivated to work as the immigrant that was hired, then I consider it to be the unmotivated worker’s fault that they are unemployed not the immigrants fault. However, I agree that immigration “employment-based visas” should be issued according to “labor market conditions” (Kallick). Furthermore, I disagree with many of the government’s legislative attempts to “defer the deportations” of illegal immigrants (Nakamura). The reasons I disagree with these attempts are all monetary based.
is because immigrant workers are willing to do most of the jobs Americans do not want to do. Most of these jobs are manual labor like building houses, construction or other things that fall under that category. I think that people who have made it here and done the whole process legally deserve to be here but the ones who are here illegally need to go back to where they came from. It makes it possible for people to be able to improve their living conditions because if they have their own company or business they can hire immigrants and they will work for much cheaper than the normal American. This also hurts a lot of Americans because they get fired when immigrants are willing to work for wages way lower than what these people are normally used to.
The United States of America, being a country founded by immigrants, is known all over the world as the land of great opportunities. People from all walks of life travelled across the globe, taking a chance to find a better life for them and their family. Over the years, the population of immigrants has grown immensely, resulting in the currently controversial issue of illegal immigration. Illegal immigrants are the people who have overstayed the time granted on their US, visa or those who have broken the federal law by crossing the border illegally. Matt O’Brien stated in his article “The government thinks that 10.8 million illegal immigrants lived in the country in January 2009, down from a peak of nearly 12 million in 2007.”(Para, 2) While some argue that illegal immigrants burden the United States of America and its economy, others believe that they have become essential and are an important part of the US, economy.
