Benefits Immigrants: A Comparative Analysis
Step 1 (FOCUS): I’ll have to make my thesis more concise; I will do this by being less specific about my proposed compromise. Instead, I will try to just introduce the main idea of it and then expand more in the paragraph dedicated to the compromise. Finally, I will try to describe more what the benefit will be for the society as a whole instead of just describing how it benefits immigrants. (WC: 69)
Step 2 (EVIDENCE): Even though both peers complimented me because I used a lot of credible sources. One of them said that my voice is lost because I included too much evidence. Therefore, I will try to start each paragraph with my own original sentence and then start supporting it with evidence. Also, I will remove unnecessary and/or excessive

    Benefits and costs of authorized immigrants to workers, consumers, and the economy are varied. Authorized immigrants have the ability to come to the US and make higher wages than they usually can in there home country. With the legality of their working here they will still pay taxes, and abide by all US laws. This allows for firms to hire workers that will do many of the undesirable jobs most people would not want to do, or are over qualified to do without forcing the firms to operate in the "black market." Labor consumers get benefits that they have more options available to hire. Authorized immigrants could have more specialized education in industries/fields that are not as apparent or as developed in the US. This leads to benefits in the economy as a whole as some of the specialized fields could lead to whole new industries in the US, which equates with more job availability. Along with this, the economy will have a whole new demographic of workers to choose from for hire. The diversity that comes from it can only be beneficial, making the market more competitive overall. Costs of authorized workers are pretty much few, but they are big ones. Some problems question American pride and ability. Some ask, "Why do we need foreign workers in the US anyway?" We are self-sufficient and do not need them regardless if they are legal or not. Although there are benefits many people are against even authorized workers. This causes some problems among workers, there can be tensions between the native-born and foreign-born. Consumers of labor can have problems because with authorized foreign workers sometime firms are required to hire certain races/ethnicities. The only problem being with that is that a firm might be forced to hire a less qualified, productive worker just because they are a certain ethnicity. Costs to the economy as a whole is that some American funds, such as wages made by workers on Visa's are often sent home to another country to support one's family…

    Every day, Americans of all races encounter the problem of walking into a store and hearing people of other ethnicities speaking other languages. It is frustrating to have to interrelate with other individuals and not be able to connect fully with them because of a linguistic barrier. In the articles, The F Word by Dumas, Mother Tongue by Tan and Aria by Rodriguez, the difficulties of being an immigrant are stated. Many immigrants have problems adapting to a new society and sometimes society does not understand. Every day, they endure many problems such as not being understood, having to learn a new language, and discrimination.…

    In conclusion, I strongly feel that Americans could greatly benefit from adopting some of the immigrant customs discussed in The Immigrant Advantage. Kolker herself could be used as a role model or example for how a family could benefit from some of these traditions, from the money saving habits of the Money Club to the ease of dinner preparation using the Com Thang. I wholeheartedly plan on attempting to make use of available family members whenever it comes time to introducing my child to the world. The knowledge and love that an older family member would be capable of introducing into our home could easily prove invaluable. I also hope that by the time that my children are entering into their college years that I would be able to provide…

    Pregnant women and children who are within five years of obtaining a certain legal status will be considered for Medicaid and CHIP program. However, illegal immigrants are not eligible for any form of health insurance plan. Most of the uninsured population is made up of the young and healthy. It could have been cheap to insure the young and the healthy. In that regard the uninsured immigrant population is made of the young and the healthy. In that manner health insurance premiums could be lowered and thus benefit everyone who is covered under the provision of the Affordable Care Act (Capps, 2014; Medicaid, 2015).…

    The grass is not always greener on the other side, which is the case for many immigrants migrating to America. Coming to America by Gibbs and Bankhead, A Hyphenated Identity by Harry Kitano, and as well as the essay Wandering Between Two Worlds, One Dead, the Other Powerless to be Born by Ramon S. Torrecilha are all detailed works of writing about the hardships immigrants had to overcome becoming a citizen or already being a citizen of the United States. I believe that many people have an overwhelming expectation about America and take the notion of it being a free state to literally. Countless of immigrants minds assume that once they move to America they will have the opportunity, the success, the romance, and when it is all said and done several immigrants just think of America as an utter disappointment.…

    As my intended major is in the scientific field, it is vital that I am proficient in all aspects of Outcome 2. Outcome 2 deals with a writer’s ability to read, analyze, and synthesize complex texts, and the writer’s ability to purposely incorporate evidence from the texts in a way that effectively supports not only the authors writing, but their overall complex claim. A writer’s claim is only as good as the evidence that supports it, so it is vital for the author to incorporate scholarly and peer reviewed evidence that advance the writers purpose, and help to achieve the overall goal of the literary work. A writer cannot make an effective argument without having reliable sources of evidence to support the literary work as a whole.…

    I personally believe that we should let immigrants. I feel that immigrants help the United States. Although some immigrants have harmed the United States, I feel that with the right security measures we can make sure that immigrants do not harm us. Immigrants do the jobs that most Americans would never do. If immigrants did not do those jobs then there will be less workers doing those jobs meaning that there will be fewer jobs and less production. This also helps the economy. If there weren't any immigrant workers it would affect farmers heavily because they wouldn't be able to grow crops that require a lot of workers. Farmers would then have to only grow crops that they could profit off of growing. The jobs that immigrants do are actually…

    If you were born in a poor country and you could barely survive, what would you do? If you heard that there are opportunities for a better life in more advanced countries, would you try your luck there in an attempt to provide a better life for your family? Although the reasons that brought all the immigrants to the Unites States may vary, a typical case is that in which an individual is born in a family with limited resources and he comes to the U.S. with hopes of having a better life. Those who have empathy would want to help those going through a difficult situation by letting them into our country. However, simply acting based on emotions is not sufficient; reasoning and logic are crucial when governing a nation. After an examination of…

    I agree that having a diverse group of worker brings many benefits. Immigrant works help both the economy they are working in and the economy they come from. The immigrants will work for less which helps companies spend money on improvement for their companies. The workers then send some of the money they make back to their family in their home country which helps stimulate that economy.…

    First benefit to my idea is that it will stop immigrants from coming into our country. Once they see how brutal we are to their kind it will show them how serious they are. Once we get the immigrants to stop coming in then we worry about the ones we have in the country right now. This will be the first step to creating a superior Nation. Also, other countries will fear us and now we mean business and are not just a push over. The immigrants that are already here will want to go back to their country were it was better in the first place and they really did not need to leave.…

    Today in America the topic of immigration; the act of moving from one country to another country for permanent residence, comes with a negative connotation. Generally this is due to the fact that the word immigration is associated with issues like terrorism, crime, overpopulation and sanctuary cities. And it is because of issues like these that many Americans question the benefits of immigration. If this is true the question we should be asking ourselves is does immigration contribute to a better America? The answer; although clouded by several fears and, is and should always be a bold faced yes.…
