Preventing Homelessness

Refugees don’t choose to lead this life but instead are forced to. And as stated above, there is a silver lining to accepting refugees. The least anybody can do is to show them love and kindness and help them build better lives for themselves in contrast to turning a blind eye and pretending that everything will eventually go back to normal. As it appears to be, the situation does not seem likely to decrease in the foreseeable future, and this short-term thinking of various impacts it may have on the country may lead to bigger and longer-term problems for the local economy. Keeping refugees outside the borders of the country appears to be more expensive in the long run than taking them in and thus intensifies the tab for taxpayers.

The other half is "explicit" homelessness, such as sleeping in cars, sheds, or under bridges (Kim, 2008, para. 7). While homelessness can be known as an urban problem, it is much more than that. There are several people in our society who think homelessness are majority from adults who have never mounted to anything in their life, the divorced, the drug users, and those who have no motivation to make something better of themselves, but that is just an ideal thought. Others feel the

I couldn’t imagine what would happen to us. Just trying to make a living every day so we could survive. Homeless veterans fight for our country and they deserve our honor and respect. Us Americans should help our veterans get off the

Many of the minimum wage workers who had been functioning in poverty would still be functioning in poverty because the cost of living would be elevated too. In the past when the national minimum wage was raised there was virtually no effect to people living in poverty. Some people might say that the talk about higher minimum wage is sparking hope in the workers. If a worker has a chance to earn more wages then they will work better so that they do get that raise; however, more people will lose their jobs because not as many people will get to work if others are making higher wages. Those on the opposing side of this issue may say that there will be more buying and selling if the national minimum wage was raised to $15 an hour.

Small businesses already struggle and they need to be protecting by not allowing "Buy Nothing Day" to derail their profits. Lastly, consumerism is a healthy part of a growing environment. People need to buy goods in order for businesses to have money so that the economy can continue to grow. With "Buy Nothing Day" the entire consumer market is coming to a halt which will hurt consumers and businesses. Without this flow of commerce, the economy could fail.

Therefore, it is important to discuss possible solutions to helping those who suffer get treatment. Mental health plays a huge role in the everyday lives of people and their physical health. While some think that mental health services are not important, should not be provided to many, and should not be available in schools, mental health care should be available to all who need it for free and be available in schools. Free mental health can help those struggling and the public be aware of the issues, help those get the help they need, protect the individual and

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. Due to the large income of unskilled workers has allowed employers to give out low wages and actually allow there to be horrible working conditions. There seems to be a solution to this. By reducing low-skill immigration, we can strengthen the labor market and as well as increase wages along with them for the American people.

“Industrialists touted automation as a way to improve working conditions and workers’ standard of living” (130). As seen from this quote, automation shaped the way we view labor. Not only did it provide a better alternative instead of using many people, but the use of machines reduced the number of accidents that may have occurred otherwise. Clearly, industrialists needed to look to “how to get the most out of machines rather than how to get the most out of people” (131). This was reduced because many of the more dangerous machines used in factory jobs were replaced with more modern and safer machinery.

As senator Charles E. schumer has made clear they can help the economy by paying fines to become citizens. They can also help create more jobs and opportunities for employment. Schumer's point is that by paying fines they can become citizens and are also helping the economy. Some might argue that they are taking away opportunities for american citizens to earn jobs and salaries. However what must be remembered is that without improvement to the economy less people would stop moving in and would take a long time for americans to make to economy the same way as diffrent undocumented immigrants would.

The minimum wage should be raised due to having a healthy economy, according to statistics the economy should grow. Many employers are seeing their workers suffer from earning minimum wage, so the employers decide to raise the minimum wage themselves. The toughest thing is that many families cannot support a sustainable life while earning the current minimum wage of
