Research Paper on Illegal Immigration

As, Benfitof puts, “critics have claimed that immigrants take on jobs, lower down wages, and drain too much tax money because of social services. However, what they do not realize is that the jobs immigrants take are the jobs most citizens in the host country do not take (Daniel). The immigrants that fill these jobs take the weight off producer and consumers which benefit the economic welfare of the U.S (Daniel). “It is a fact that immigrants are a great source of low cost work, but these cost reductions are eventually passed on to the buyer, so host country citizens benefit from this as well (Daniel). The goods produced through the efforts of immigrants can also generate additional profits as these goods can be sold at lower prices (Daniel). Additionally, “Comprehensive immigration reform could support and create up to 900,000 new jobs within three years of reform from the increase in consumer spending, according to the Center for American Progress(“Ten”).” Also, an additional group of cheap labor increases the flexibility of business, leading to cheaper prices, better quality products, and higher profits. Not only that, but as hinted through this paper they also help the United States economies growth. Whitehoue.gov research stated that, “According to the Small Business Administration, immigrants are 30 percent more likely to start a business in the United States than non-immigrants, and 18 percent of all small business owners in the United States are immigrants” (“Ten”). Furthermore, small businesses owned by immigrants employed an estimate of 4.7 million people in 2007, and was able to make over $776 billion annually, according to the Fiscal Policy Institute (“Ten”). On top of the, balanced politics says that the increase in immigration in the United States is increasing the wages of more skilled American citizens who have a higher education past a high school degree

The immigration is an important phenomenon that exists throughout human history and the United States of America is not an exception of this “rule”. People leave their motherland to travel to different continent, country, island or state for many different reasons. Among these reasons (business, education, asylum and so on) it is very important to highlight one of the most sensitive: the economic reason or the desire to find a better job/life in order to help their families. The USA is usually considered a country the tradition of immigrants. Due to the fact that The United States of America rank the top five most rich and developed countries in the world, the flow of immigrants has been growing considerably. However, beside the millions of legal immigrants there are millions of illegal immigrants target as a struggle of the economy and a ruin of the middle class.

The United States is known as “the land of opportunities and hope” but it does not always offer what it portrays. Undocumented immigrants who come to the U.S. in search of “the American dream” have faced many injustices in this country, a country which claims to be free and fair. Undocumented immigrants are everywhere; however, not all immigrants are bad or trying to hurt others. In the United States, especially in California, Mexicans are the targeted group when it comes to politics and other important government issues. Mexicans are seen as invaders who are constantly killing and raping, but in reality this is not true. There are some Mexicans who kill and rape, yet there are also Mexicans who come to the U.S. to work and provide for their family.

There are many hotly debated and contentious issues today. Issues that people often find themselves arguing about with their friends, or something that people have a very strong presupposed belief of. But none more hotly debated or more querulous perhaps, than our immigration system. Very few issues have the magnitude and aptitude to tear an entire nation apart, and this is one of them. As with every struggle, there are two point of views. There are those that welcome the cultural differences and the economical possibilities that immigrants bring with them, along with their traditions and their work ethic. On the opposite side, there are those that view them as a potential threat to our barely recovering economy and to their American way of

American has had a steady problem with how to resolve the illegal immigration problem. This is a great threat to the United States because it can significantly increase crime. There is much that can be done to prevent this current crisis, spinning completely out of control. Although the security needs are vast and call for reform on many levels, first and foremost, the borders need to be secure. Until this happens, the American people are at risk. It is my view, whatever the cost or whatever the measures needed, Congress needs to first allocate the money for the protection of the border to stop violent gangs, such as the notorious gang MS-13 from coming to America and committing horrendous crimes.

The United States of America, a country created by immigrants, is currently facing what some consider to be an immigration crisis. As of 2012, there is over eleven million undocumented illegal aliens living inside the United States. Both the American public and the lawmakers elected to represent us are divided on the issue. Some people view the influx of immigrants crossing over the border from Mexico to America as a good thing while others view it as a disaster waiting to happen. Regardless of ones view on immigrants coming over, most people are in agreement with the idea that we must change the way we are currently dealing with illegal aliens.

I’m going to be writing about undocumented workers in the United States. Undocumented workers get hired for multiple reasons, but the biggest reason is them being illegal immigrants. I choose this topic because I tend to go into business administration, and this is a growing problem in the U.S. I’ll be explaining why companies tend to hire undocumented workers and what kind of benefits the workers get when they aren’t documented.

Illegal immigration has been a hot topic for conservatives and liberals for decades. The twenty-sixteen presidential race has swept the controversial subject back into the limelight with the concern regarding Mexicans. Liberal media like ABC, CNN, NBC, the United States Government, and CBS have claimed that illegal immigration from Mexico hit a net zero in two-thousand-and-ten and since more Mexicans have left the United States than have arrived. The University of New Hampshire, a source of liberal propaganda, did a study based on census data in twenty-fifteen that claimed that Mexican immigration has decreased by 50% in the past five years under President Obama. Democrats use facts to try and dismiss the growing issue of illegal Mexican immigration but everyone knows the numbers don’t add up with the respectable folks of the rural south. Rusty Smith, a resident of the guns-for-all community in southern texas, claims that about half the people he's come to encounter recently are mexicans. Rusty claims that “Mexicans are stealing our Jobs. I took a few months of for work because the weather was so nice and when I

The eleven million illegal immigrants living here in the United States of America should be allowed to receive a ‘Path to Citizenship’. A majority of these people are struggling to get into America for valid reasons and not for the wrong reasons that most people think are unreasonable excuses of attempting to cross the borders illegally. Democrat Charles E. Schumer states, “By fulfilling reasonable requirements such as paying fines, learning English, and waiting their turn to be considered, these immigrants could become law-abiding citizens,” (Schumer 22). If they have been paying their taxes, following the rules as if they were an actual

Illegal immigration has been around for a very long time. Mexican illegal immigrants have dealt with coming into the United States for jobs and trying to give their children a better education since the early 1940’s but always have to deal with the fear of getting deported. Should illegal immigrant children from Mexico be allowed to stay in the United States, receive education and be allowed to stay with their families? After examining mexican illegal immigrants, it is clear that illegal immigrants are trying to give their children a better life because a majority of them do get out of poverty, their parents take jobs no one else wants to take, and the children are an important asset to the United States with the citizens being okay with them.

Immigrants come to the United States to live the American Dream. The dream of equal opportunity to achieve success through hard work and determination. Unfortunately, the majority of immigrants are not legally eligible to live in America. However, these immigrants go against the laws in the United States. Without having the opportunity to pass to the border legally, most of these immigrants choose to go through the toughest mission to enter America. They go through many obstacles such as, crossing rivers with depths up to sixty feet, walking long distances of a desert, and climbing mountains. Some immigrants succeed in crossing the border, while others die on their way due to dehydration and starvation. Although, they go through a tough journey, they are living in America with the fear of being deported. This later becomes a big impact for families.

Immigration reform is one of the most pressing issues confronting United States Legislators. Do you know why illegal immigrants come to America or any other country? Why is the matter illegal? Some say they leave their home country for a better life and work while others may say for religious reasons or just to get away. Some come for more opportunities and education and a better way of life. What is really the incentive for this? Do you agree or disagree with the law that an illegal immigrant must be demoted back to their country or origin. Do you have sympathy for such actions or are you completely against it? Hopefully if I give you the logical enough reason I can open your eyes and mind to obtain some of my reasons about illegal immigrants.

In the United States, the foreign-born population doubled since the 1960s. As year reaches 2012, immigrants made up 13 percent of the total population in the United States.(The Facts on Immigration Today, 1) The population rapidly increase with immigrants and native-born Americans. Do you know anyone who is an immigrant and is struggling because of the unfamiliar surrounding? There are many things an immigrant needs to know in order to survive in a new environment because information about medicine will heal them from sickness that might occur in the future, the laws will protect them from any social injustice, and information about transportation will help them get from one place to another easier and faster.

First, the U.S. economy is highly dependent on illegal immigrants. For all the eloquence about illegal immigrants stealing jobs, illegal immigration provides benefits to the national economy. Their importance was highlighted in a report by Texas Comptroller Susan Combs, who states, “Without the undocumented population, Texas’ work force would decrease by 6.3 percent and Texas’ gross state
