Problem Of Immigration

Addressing the Problem of:

Immigration

Intro Immigration, as of right now is a huge problem in the United States. It has been dubbed the "nation of immigrants" by sources like huffingtonpost and heritage.org. One side of the equation will tell you "people are merely trying to get a better life" among other things along those lines, and the other side would tell you "allowing just anyone into the country opens up risk of terroism and carrying of disease and such." As big of an issue as it is, it hasn't recieved much attention until recent years because "it's expensive" and "not of immediate essence" says presidents and politicians alike. But the real problem with solving the issue of immigration is "distinguishing illusory immigration problems

The people coming from all around the world, are a detriment to the economy in some places, but help it in others. We need a comprimise, an inbetween solution that fixes this. Immigrants bring health issues and risks into the equation bringing deadly dieseases like swine flu, dengue fever, and (possibly) Ebola virus and tuberculosis (www.judicialwatch.org) Money is being spent health care, insurance, Social Security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, and workers’ compensation which is money coming out of our tax dollars. Not to mention the dangerous side of things that are connected to the mexican drug trade and terroism among other things. These are health, safety, finacial and all around problems on every end of the spectrum being caused by immigration on a huge scale and absolutely needs to be solved.

Target Audience The target Audience that this law is trying to appeal to, at least from my understanding is to the American audience. Some might say "well

The quotas were calculated in 1910, 11 years before the law itself was passed, and found about 3% of Americas births were of immigrants, so it limited entry by 3% to counteract the already present immigrants due to birth rates. It was one of the very first laws to address immigration and thus naturaly had a very big impact even though, frankly, it wasn't that good. Keyword temporarily, the 1921 Quota Act failed because it was a temporal thing. You could make the arguement that they inteded it to be that way but that doesn't change the fact that it didn't work. And to add to that, the quota did not apply to immigrant minors, government official and their families, aliens who were passing through the US or visiting as tourists or temporary workers, immigrants from countries in the Western hemisphere, to countries with bilateral agreements with the US on immigration, or to countries in the Asiatic Barred Zone (http://library.uwb.edu/) which was where the bulk of alot of immigrants were coming from. Lesson Learned: Try and make a solution that is not temporary, and has no loop holes that allows for immigrants to enter regardless
