Argumentative Essay On Immigration In America

First, immigrants participate in the country’s gross domestic product because they are hard workers. According to West (2011), a study made in 2007 by the White House Council, claimed that immigrants increased American domestic gross product by $37 billion a year. For example, they mostly work in the manufacturing sector that will increase the production for higher domestic gross product. According to West (2011), immigration adds a third of the population to the overall population growth, enabling a great number of factories to start their businesses. On the other hand, immigration increases state revenue depending on the number of immigrants.

Unfortunately, what Adams described is not always the case even as much as most Americans would want it to be. Thus, Americans turn a blind eye to the social hierarchy, which makes attaining the national American Dream harder for some races, individuals with disabilities and even women. Every individual has their opinion of what the American Dream means to them, which tends to include upward mobility and the opportunity to prosper. Over the last few decades there has been significant advancements in media and technology. Consequently, changing the idea of the American Dream drastically throughout the years.

The rapidly increasing population in America will have an effect on jobs and housing, due to the number of immigrants. The U SS should act sooner rather than later because it will make it harder for the citizens to find jobs and houses in the future. Immigration rates are extremely high in the U SS that it is causing damage to the environment. Population growth is a serious issue because it can have an impact in many ways both good and bad. It can increase unemployment rates in the future if the government does not act now to bring a stop to the rapidly growing immigrants in the U.S.

They could state negative Impacts of immigrants, such as overpopulation, drug trafficking, increase multiculturalism, massive escalation in crime, among others, but otherwise there 's some positive benefits as Dave Reichert and John F. Kennedy states one day, that immigrants are necessary component of economic growth, they enriched and strengthened the fabric of American life, they take the most dangerous works and receive the less gain that any company can give. High rates of immigration are frequently accompanied by militant, and sometimes violent, calls for immigration restriction or deportation by nationalist groups. In the thesis will be explaining the main ideas of the topic. There 's many country 's that have already enacted laws design to make more difficult the life of undocumented immigrants.

Total inhalation of immigration would not be a healthy choice for the United States. However, setting out for stricter laws to become a citizen is in need. There are over 11.7 million illegal immigrants in the United States (poll 2011). Therefore, having restrictions on immigration overall can help the economy grow, security at airports, docs, borders, and on the streets would not only lessen the illegal immigrants around the country, but supply more jobs for Americans. Illegal immigrants not only live in the U.S, but are supplied jobs in which were made for American workers.

Illegal immigration is becoming an increasing problem within the United States of America. The influx of people over the past few years has grown. They hope that coming to this country will bring them good fortune and a life of prosperity. Many illegal immigrants believe they have the right to become citizens even though they came here illegally. Though there are many opinions on the subject of immigration, two viewpoints are Roberto Rodriguez 's article, “The Border on Our Backs,” which supports illegal immigrants gaining citizenship and Star Parker’s article “Se Habla Entitlement”, is against them gaining citizenship.

Ever so often airports become a target of attack and crime. In response, there have been changes to airport security through the years, including increased security measures and new security agencies such as the federal agency Transportation Security Administration (TSA). With more attacks occurring more enhanced security is being made. Though many argue that these measures are meant to keep the travelers safe and the country as a whole safe, others might argue that the passengers are being violated and their privacy is being invaded. As a result of the many airport terrorist attacks, there’s been an increase in intensity of the security measures making it inconvenient and invasive for travelers.

It is understood that many Americans think that immigrants are stealing our jobs. They think that Americans need jobs to support themselves and lower unemployment. It is true that Americans should have first pick of jobs. At the same time American farmers are losing money because crops go to waste. In fact the washington times researched that Normally immigrants would pick the harvest at a low price and because many Americans do not want to do this job

Fixing immigration in America In America the problem of immigration is shrouded by hate, distrust, and anger from the multitudes of races involved. In the last few decades this issue has become wide spread and very divisive. For registered immigrants and people born in America the influx of people allows for a fear of job loss or change of cultural identity.

It will result in less chain migration. Chain migration is basically when there is migration from one specific area to another repeatedly, which in this case is places like Sweden which are too expensive or places like Sri Lanka which face shortage of resources sending workers to the US. Hence, defeating the whole purpose of immigration in the US, which is to create diversity. And as mentioned no one really benefits from this, neither the citizens, nor the guest workers but only the exploiters. USA should limit migrants but instead of giving guest worker visas, actual work permits and citizenship be given to that limited number, therefore abolishing the guest worker programs.

The conservative side of America, who presides a majority in Congress may be the tipping point that actually passes a bill to build the wall. This wall will be a huge impact on the economy and the federal budget. If the wall is built then it will be extremely hard to enter the US illegally. The implications of this would be that jobs in the country would significantly overdriven by Americans who may be searching for jobs but unable to get one due to jobs held by illegal immigrants. This issue is without a doubt completely over race, Trump claims that Mexicans are stealing jobs Americans could have.

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.

Immigrants change the population affecting things like taxes, and job availability, and crime rates. First, taxes often increase as a result of immigrants needing government assistance to begin their new lives. Tax payers are put under financial strain when left with the bill and are compensating for the population that cannot provide for themselves. Many unemployed Americans get frustrated with the idea of foreigners taking their job because as Americans, they feel they should have priority. Lastly, people are often skeptical and cautious of immigrants because terrorism is becoming more common and trends show that when immigration goes up, so do the crime rates.

In my opinion i don 't think immigrants are criminals or rapist i also don 't believe we take jobs. I believe that America isn 't america without immigrants, we are a diverse country. America needs immigrants because with immigrants we can create a stronger economy because they bring the skills that they have to create a better place. I also would agree that some immigrants aren 't the best of people and they do commit crimes in the US but if it were to be an american committing a crime it wouldn 't be as bad because he 's american but if someone that isn 't american committing the crime it would be because he is “illegal”. Although it is proven that the illegal immigrants have a high risk of committing crimes americans have a higher rate than illegal immigrants.

The issues that interest me personally/politically are immigration and equality. Through the years, immigration has been an issue that has impacted the United States politically on whether what should be done about illegal immigration. As chapter 1 stated, politics is conflictual and the issue of immigration has lasted for so long not because the government dislike immigrants, if not they cannot come into an agreement that could favor both opposing sides. Moreover, citizens always have their views towards immigrants as people taking away their jobs. What they do not see is that immigrants have improved the country’s economy in a fast way that has open many jobs opportunities to immigrants.
