Everyone in the United States’ ancestors were once Immigrants, from countries like Ireland, Italy, England etc. Even though we all had different backgrounds, we all shared something in common, coming into America legally. Our ancestors came in on a boat, went through customs and made America their home legally. Immigrants today find ways to sneak into our boarders and get passed customs. Immigrants who come in illegally should be deported because we pay for their children's schooling, most are criminals and American citizens pay for their well-being. If you are born in America, you become a citizen without a question. However, if your parents brought you here illegally, you do not have the same rights. Public school is free to all American children, but it comes out of working adults taxes. Since these immigrants do not pay taxes, they are not paying for their children's education, we are!

We should not have to spend any money on putting these criminals in jail. The right thing to do is when they get in legal trouble, America should deport them back to their country. 30% of American jails are illegal immigrants. Instead, our prisons provide housing for them, food and even a job sometimes in jail. This is completely unfair because we are paying for these illegal Immigrants to be able to be criminals in a country they do not belong to. Americans pay for illegals healthcare, food stamps and again their public education. Hard working Americans who pay taxes sometimes do not realize where these taxes go to. Medical care for illegals is payed for by our money we earned. Illegals welfare is paid for by the money Americans work five days a week for. Even their children's education, as mentioned, is payed for by us. This is unfair because Americans strive for success and work hard to provide for their families, yet immigrants can come in illegally and get this all for
The role of women in society has been a controversial one. Most religions see women as being inferior to men and are of the view that women were created as a companion for men. A lot of our social morale stems from religion; hence this help to shape the view that woman is inferior and is to be submissive to their male counterpart. Society has set roles which each sex is expected to play. Gender role is a theoretical construct in the social sciences and humanities that refers to a set of social and behavioral norms that, within a specific culture, are widely considered to be socially appropriate for individuals of a specific sex (Princeston.edu). Women are expected to be docile and agreeable, while men are expected to be head strong and opinionated. Women and men were never viewed as interdependent, the general consensus was that women were dependent on men and men were independent. With advancement and revolution this view has changed, this view is however still strong in the Muslim and Islamic society. Voltaire and Molière brought the role of women in the French society to life in their plays.
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
The statue of liberty is one of America’s famous icons. It stands 305 feet above Liberty Island looking at New York’s historic harbor and enshrining the idea of freedom from oppression. The Lady Liberty has been welcoming millions of immigrants seeking a better life in the United States, however illegal immigration is becoming a much larger issue than when she was built in 1886. With over 12 million undocumented immigrants in the United States, the question frequently arises, What should be done about them? Now is the best time to figure that out! The illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay in the United States of America. The illegals assist in balancing out demand for low wage workers and continue to boost the American economy. They benefit our local and state governments by paying taxes and dividends
Immigrants came here for the same reason that families have always come here, and that is the American dream. Immigration started in the 1840s and will most likely never stop, but our country needs to take more action in controlling it. United States citizens like to believe that people should have the chance to better themselves. That is why people come to the United States to make things better for themselves. Immigrants come here to have freedom of religion, to be able to have a proper education and to have better paying jobs.
In the U. S today, the approximated population of undocumented immigrants stands at averagely 11 million. Therefore, this has created a hot debate in Congress about the action to take over the undocumented immigrants. Those opposed to illegal immigrants suggest that, their stay in the United States effects U.S citizens on the job market negatively . In addition, illegal immigrants are viewed in certain quarters as takers in the sense that illegal immigrants benefit more from public resources than the american-born citizens of the U.S. However, the reality is that immigrants contribute positively to the U.S economy and pay significantly into the system compared to what they send back home. In addition, the contributions associated with undocumented immigrants involve sustaining the solvency of the SSTF (Social Security Trust Fund). In this sense, the use of cost benefit analysis by those supporting immigration restrictions are unfounded and do not reflect the facts on the ground (Nadadur 1037). The opponents of undocumented immigrants believe that having more undocumented immigrants in the U.S is costly; however, there are no solid reasons to prove that undocumented immigrants are a burden to the treasury. Instead, the undocumented immigrants play an important role in boosting the economy and in particular by taking up jobs those citizens perceive as demeaning because the money they earn goes back to the economy through taxes resulting from consumer spending when they send money back home.
The policies implemented by the United States to strengthen the border and enforce immigration policies have led to the abuse and profiling of undocumented immigrants. Undocumented immigrants live in constant fear of deportation and are subjected to multiple human rights violations as they are abused, exploited and discriminated against. Immigrants are racialized and stereotyped. The US government has passed laws that discriminate against undocumented immigrants, making it harder for them to live and survive in America. These laws are due to the perception that undocumented immigrants are a burden on the US economy, but on the contrary undocumented immigrants provide an economic benefit to the US, and due to the benefit they provide society
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.
Immigrants risk more to get and stay in America, so the least they deserve is a
Many people have come to America for a better life and to get away from all the troubles of their homeland. These immigrants, like those throughout U.S. history, are generally hard workers and make important contributions to the economy through their productive labor and purchasing power. America is considered a melting pot of many diffrent ethinic group. Immigrants should be able to enter America with little if any resistance from any border patrol. Immigrants in america take the low paying, hard labor jobs that , unfortunately, some americans don't want.
“I am not the ‘Illegal’ you think I am, and immigration is not what you think it is” Why do people cross the line illegally? there are many reasons for undocumented immigrants to cross to the united states do to the poverty in the country, high level of education in the united states, and the better opportunity of jobs.

Undocumented immigration is a big issue in the united states because many immigrants come to live the “ American Dream”. Immigrants from all around the different country
Clearly, there are several arguments that punish undocumented immigrants that enter the United States illegally, and there is a lot of evidence that supports why immigrants should instead be granted an opportunity to gain residence. In contrast to what most people believe, they do pay their fair share of taxes, meaning they have rights to some of the benefits that native-born peers are provided with. They also do jobs that American citizens do not wish to do. As stated above, all immigrants migrate to the U.S. from countries that suffer from poverty, and a high crime rate.
Immigration is the greatest part of American history. In the beginning, Immigrants brought a vast variety of cultures and beliefs and turned America in to the beauty it is today. Immigrants are still doing this. However, the issue with immigration can be it 's illegal status. Many undocumented immigrants are entering this country causing questions among the American citizens.

Just imagine if you got pulled over for a broken tail light and knowing that you wouldn’t be able to be with your family again. Its not a joyful thought, huh? Well, this is what happens to illegal immigrants that drive without a driver’s license. If an illegal immigrant is pulled over and doesn’t have a driver’s license, they could get deported. If they are not deported then they will end up paying an outrageous fine and another amount of money to get their car from the car pound.

An anchor baby is used to refer to a child born to a noncitizen mother in a country which has birthright citizenship. Imgrants are giving an advantage to america's future. Immigrants should able to stay in this country to stay with their children. 2016 presidential candidate has disagreed with anchor babies and wants to take away the citizenship away from children. According to Mr. Donald Trump about anchor babies he says"I don't think they have American citizenship and if you speak to some very, very good lawyers -- and I know some will disagree, but many of them agree with me -- and you're going to find they do not have American citizenship," (Donald Trump: “Anchor babies” aren't real american citizens). This has caused a very controversial debate because in the 14th amendment is states “all persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which included former slaves recently freed” which mean that they are citizens. Those children have been born in this country and should have the right to be called American
