Argumentative Essay On Foster Care

Imagine having the same lifestyle even after President Trump creates new regulations for immigration policies. It is a well-known fact that the new president will create a drastic shift for the current working class but a question arises, who will take the place of deported immigrants in the workforce? There is another problem with great significance, the United States foster care system. When these two problems are combined, a surprisingly effective solution arises.
The United States Foster care system is currently in bad shape. According to the Children’s Rights webpage, “In 2015, nearly 670,000 children were in the United States foster care system. On average, children remain in state care for two years while six percent of children in

the foster care system system have languished there for five or more years.” (Foster Care) These statistics show the meaning behind this new policy, the children in the foster care system have no possible way to aid themselves. The Foster for the Force policy states that each family is required to adopt 1-3 children by national law, this will help reduce the amount of children in the foster care system.
Using the Foster for the Force policy which states each family that resides in the United States is required to adopt 1-3 children, the children will be used as workers in different industries that might lack workers after President Trump’s immigration policies are enacted throughout the country. After the children are adopted by the families, they are required to be housed and fed by these families but the children are required to work. Each state government will be required to assign children to a certain job which lacks interest or workers. According to HR Block Dollars & Sense blog, adolescents should get a job for five reasons which include “learning how to budget, putting money towards college, getting work experience, starting to save for retirement, and learning to appreciate the value of the dollar.”(Dollars & Sense) A multitude of benefits will arise for this new policy . First, adolescent employment will help the youth learn beneficial attributes. Second, adolescents are generally stressed due to hormonal changes and puberty; employment will calm their anxiety and they will find it easier to cope with stress. Third, the employment of adolescents will decrease the working age. According to Vox, Trump “turned DACA into a ticking time bomb for 800,000 immigrants”. (Linda) The 670,000 children who will be housed, will take the place of the 800,000 immigrants that are deported.
