    Several days ago I had a conversation with my Uncle Joe, who by the way is no bleeding heart liberal. He told me than that Donald J Trump won the election fair and square and now the illegal’s are crying foul play and saying it’s not fair that he is picking on young adults who came across the border at a young age and grew up in The United States. Now, because of President elect Trump, they feel like foreigners in the country they have lived for years and call home. Uncle Joe said they should feel like foreigners - they are. He also said if they want to pursue the American dream they first have to get a visa then a green card and finally become an American citizen and then they can dream the dream.

  • Persuasive Essay On Raising Minimum Wage

    1668 Words  | 4 Pages

    Imagine a world where you are working overtime, seven days a week, yet your kids are starving. You can’t get the education you need because you don’t have the time and money to afford it, and you can’t change jobs because this is the only one you can get. Unfortunately, this is the reality for millions of Americans living today. The federal minimum wage is too low to help families, and actually mathematically speaking, too low to survive on. The quality of life for minimum wage families is terribly low, and that is unacceptable. As humans, we should be looking after others and helping the poverty come out of their continuous cycle. Raising the minimum wage would not only help families be able to afford a better quality of life, but help them to afford healthy food, get an adequate education, and invest in the necessary health care they need.

It also springs up whenever a politician uses a podium to persuade people that he makes the world work. Politicians possibly rely on persuasion because they crave the power. However, persuasion is a manipulative, unBiblical tactic of forcing others to accept a point of view by all means necessary.

    Today, my fellow comrades, I, too, like many others want to take the liberty to talk about the importance of labor unions and the horrendous state under which we work in. As both, a female immigrant and a textile laborer I am grateful that such unions have emerged and have brought the working people together. For far too long we have worked without a decent pay, always settling for what is offered. For far too long we have worked without a decent schedule, always having to work due to fear of losing our jobs. For far too long we have worked without safe nor decent work environments, due to the lack of jobs available and greediness of our employers.

    In this article Rex Huppke gives the argument against raising minimum wage. Huppke refers to raising minimum wage as “ like chipping away at a problem with a hammer when more precise tools are at hand.” The goal of minimum wage is to gain experience, education, and skills while first entering the workforce. The goal after that is to move up to a better paying job with the experience education, and knowledge learned.

Sanderson and other economist and public policy experts are afraid of how bad the several consequences of raising minimum

  • American Dream Persuasive Speech

    The American Dream is composed of the freedom to be whatever you want to be, and do whatever you want to do with your life. Education, above all else, is Key when it comes to your future. However, as the education system is today, it no longer seems a privilege, a wondrous opportunity to succeed and to be what you want to be, now it 's more of an obligation, a punishment. It is without a doubt in my mind that the enactment of this bill will restore the education system into what it is supposed to be, a system meant to educate people for their adult life. Not only does this bill allow opportunity to reverse the decision to leave school, but it also allows the students to retain basic skills needed for the work force, and the reduced academic

  • Argumentative Essay On Minimum Wage

    2003 Words  | 5 Pages

    The minimum wage being too low has been a public issue in America for generations. Basically, the debate includes two different opinions. Firstly, people who want to raise the minimum wage, and second, people who would rather is stay the same. The overwhelming majority of liberals are on the side that favors a raise. Additionally, a somewhat smaller proportion of conservatives favor the change as well, but for different reasons. The liberal opinion on raising the minimum wage is based on the idea that putting more money in the people’s pockets, will stimulate the economy, and decrease poverty. The problem that conservatives and liberals alike have with this, is that a few direct consequences are proven to apply when raising wages. Some proposed consequences include unemployment, inflation, and unfairness to higher educated people. Another main point is that raising the minimum wage is thought to helps small business by increasing worker satisfaction. This issue of minimum wage has become increasingly popular and important in current times, as president Obama has proposed the idea of raising the minimum wage of contract workers to 10.10$ per hour (about a 30% increase from the current 7.25$ per hour minimum wage). A large number of people consider this wage hike unnecessary due to the fact that today’s value of minimum is higher than it has ever been since the 80’s, and because the wage hike comes at too high of a cost. All things considered, the issue of raising minimum wage is not a battle of political parties and their agendas, its really a debate between everyone.
