I'll be addressing the issues I've heard about illegal immigration throughout high school. I'll be covering a lot of questions as well, such as, where do illegal immigrants work? What's the difference between the United States from their home country? Why do they choose to become an illegal immigrant, instead of following through the process? How Many illegal immigrants are living in the United States now? First off, I guaranteed there's millions of illegal immigrants living in the United States now. The reason for them to migrate to here is, because of the American Dream. The American Dream is achieved by dedication, and hard work. Everyone living outside of America assumes u.s citizens are living the so called “ wealthy life “. There's prolly …show more content…
Also there's a good education system, that illegal immigrants risk their life for. Most of them speak a firings language, which makes it harder for them to qualify to be an u.s citizen. You'll also need a certain amount of money in your bank, so they can see if you're financially stable. The process of becoming an u.s citizen is very long, and some people just can't wait. Thirdly, there's a lot of illegal immigrants throughout United States with jobs as well. This type of payment is called “ under the table “. It's most likely illegal in the United States, because we are required to report all wages to the IRS. Some illegal immigrants might have family members or even friends, that owns businesses and willing to help. Another reason why illegal immigrants migrate to United States is because of the dictators within their country. Fourthly, some girls aren't allowed to attend school in different parts of the world. China is known for having the “One Child Policy” back in the day. Foreigners are prolly under stressful living conditions at the moment. Eventually they'll come across commercials about United States. There's a lot of places people would want to go, such as Disneyland, beaches, festivals, islands, and much
While the legal citizens are complaining about illegal immigrants taking up jobs in the low wage sector, this is not true. Undocumented immigrants are able to access those jobs because of the immobility of the American citizens working in the low wage sector (Nadadur 1048). On the other hand, the efforts of undocumented immigrants are not only realizable in the low wage sector, but also high wage sector that provides for white-collar jobs. Some of the illegal immigrants that reside in United States are highly qualified professionals and their input is significant in driving the U.S economy to greater heights. Within the population of undocumented immigrants,
With the difficulties and the dangers of migrating are big, people are willing to risk their lives in order to reach the American Dream. People dream of making it to the US and having a big luxurious life when in reality all the jobs they can get is working in the fields and or factories. They discrimination they are going to face because how they look and speak, the idea that they may never make it to the top unless they go back to school and get a degree. The harsh realities with being an immigrant in the United States is big, always having to worry about ICE, or losing a job, this constant fear of being deported. In every society there is hegemonic society that prevails over everyone else and controls everything and everyone. In a country that strives to for every person to be equal is a myth, we live in a world were only the rich will prosper and the poor will get
It is said that immigrants come to this country for a better life, then that is what they should try to do for themselves. In most cases they just end up working low-paying, dead end jobs. If you come to america for a better life then you should put forth the effort to better yourself rather than just barely scraping by. Most immigrants tend to work the manual labor jobs that do not require a lot of other human interaction. “ While U.S. government mounds its huge effort to stop people from entering the country illegally, many American employers continually show their eagerness to give them jobs.” (Crest 72) Many immigrants use government assistance such as welfare and food stamps. Immigrants using government assistance tends to anger people because they feel like illegals are using the taxes that they pay to live their life while not paying taxes on their own. Trump suggests building a wall but I do not believe that will work very well at warding off the influx of immigrants, they will find other ways of entering our great country. Some argue that immigrants do the jobs that most Americans would not want to do themselves, at a much lower pay rate. Often illegals are paid under the minimum wage because employers do not have to register them as employees. Many illegals are often seen working in the construction business, gardening, roofing, concrete work, house cleaning, etc. This is because most of those are hard work or thought of as blue collar work that often does not pay enough to support a family. This being, they often have to work more than the average native born
Immigration is the act of moving and living in another country. Illegal immigration has been a controversial issue for so many years in the United States. Immigrants leave their hometown to travel to the United states to work and to start a new life in this country. America is a nation of immigration. Many immigrants comes in to America every year, but some of those people are undocumented immigrants. The government is taking an action to solve the immigration system. In this paper, there are various resources how people think what are the possible the impact if the undocumented immigrants become legal. Legalizing the undocumented immigrants means they will have better job, wages and which leads to increase in taxes, jobs in the United states

If an illegal immigrant is working that is good because they will get paid so cheap that the cost of what a consumer is buying will decrease. That will benefit the economy because productivity will be high. Also, many people think that illegal immigrants do not pay their federal taxes. Most of illegal immigrants pay federal taxes if they have a job in a fast food restaurant. Also, according to Michael Hicks, director of the center of business and economic research claims that, “Ironically… illegal immigrants are the only workers with below average income who pay federal taxes.” Most of immigrants who work at an illegal job or are working illegally pay their federal taxes. They still get a check and taxes are still taken off from their pay
Illegal immigration has become a controversial topic in politics within the US. Some believe that undocumented immigrants are vital to the U.S. economy because they take the jobs Americans do not want. Others, however, have the opinion that undocumented immigrants should be punished for doing things illegally, arguing that undocumented immigrants are taking the jobs of the American people and abusing them by not paying taxes. Although there are speculations that support the claim that immigrants should be punished, there are several counterarguments that state why they should be allowed to stay. Undocumented immigrants are an important factor in the development of the United States of America, and immigrants have supplied a widespread example of economic, social, and political growth.
There are over twelve million undocumented immigrants living in the United States. Many came to America to work, go to school, or be reunited with family members who are already residing here. Most migrants want to work and pursue the “American dream”. There are many barriers for residents to achieving success at the work and life balance. The immigrants fall back on public assistance to support them.
Everyday over 11 million people battle with the fact that they can’t be legal in America. Hiding in the shadows, petrified of what might happen to them if they are caught trying to help their kids and families be successful in a safe home. Millions of undocumented immigrants are denied a “path to citizenship” due to immigration laws. These laws need to be altered and should allow these hurting families a chance to be legal. If these immigrants get deported, the United States is losing vital resources, they will fear losing their families, and since they are trying to get right by law, why not give them a chance? Furthermore undocumented immigrants are worthy to fight for, and this is why.
Throughout the past centuries, immigration has had many positive and negative impacts on our country and society. Law and order have been the founding cornerstone of our democracy, and the mandate of the U.S. Constitution is for Congress to do the work of the people and that of the nation. Immigration has continuously been a passionate debate within our society. This particular topic will always be a sensitive subject due to Americans personal beliefs and morals.
There are many reasons why immigrants come to the United States. One of the main reasons they migrate is in seek of a better opportunity at success. As for that, I mean to have a better future for their family and give their
The travel that illegal immigrants have to come to the United States is as hard as their life back home, but as soon as they settle down, their quality of life will start to improve. Not only do immigrants come here for a better life, but they also happen to improve the economy in U.S. upon crossing
Immigration poses an ongoing debate in which people are becoming increasingly unsure as to whether immigrants are benefiting their society. This paper will examine three of the main benefits of immigration: the increase in diversity it provides, the rise in skills and labor and the benefits to the economy. Immigration leads to cross-cultural integration, therefore increasing ethnic variety. This increase in diversity is beneficial as it leads to improvements in society, as well as educational development. Increased immigration also means there are more skills and experts available to the hosting countries, as well as extra workers to take up jobs that need filling. Immigration also leads to improvements in the economy as taxes are paid and employment and wages increase.
How this many undocumented immigrants live here is a little hazy because of our rigorous laws. There are two different types of illegal immigrants and knowing these two distinctively different types of illegal immigrants is of great importance. The first, are immigrants that travel to our country legally with a visa or green card but stay as their visas become expired. The other illegal immigrant is when a person illegally trespasses our border without asking for permission from the government and lives here. The first type of Immigrants are much easier to track and incarcerate because of the fact that the government already knows that they are in the country. However, the second type of illegal immigrant is much more difficult to find because the government is unaware of their
