What Are Immigrants?

Immigrants. The founding citizens of America. As of April fourteenth, 2016, the percentage of immigrants in America and their children is over twenty-five percent. This percent is greater than the 2015 percentages of African American, American Indian and Alaskan, Asian, and Hispanic or Latino people in the United States, with 13.3, 1.2, 5.6, and 17.6 percents respectively. These people work as cleaners, cooks, busboys, gardeners, and laborers. These are not jobs that pay much, and most Americans would not want these jobs if they were suddenly vacated. The only jobs these immigrants are taking from U.S. citizens are the ones they don’t want. In fact, since 2008, the number of jobs has gone up by almost 10.7 million jobs. Furthermore, without
These immigrants are not inherently Muslim, nor are they inherently terrorists. Even just the Muslim immigrants do not deserve to be discriminated against. Christians have committed just as many wrongs against other people as the Muslims that are now the scapegoat of America. The Crusades are an excellent example of this. Plundering, stealing, and fighting in the name of God isn’t much different than terrorist attacks in the name of Islam. The Holocaust started with the Germans blaming Jewish people for their economic issues, even though they were not all to blame. If the American Dream of freedom isn’t open to everyone, then is it truly the American Dream? "Life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement" regardless of social class or circumstances of birth. (James Truslow Adams) This American Dream leaves room for everyone, the immigrants and the native-born people, the Christians and the Muslims, to achieve their personal dream. Racism should not be a part of our American culture. What we hear about most is the bad news, the terrorist attacks and the murders and the
should create a job company that only accepts non-U.S. residents. One way to get a permanent resident card is to get a job offer from the United States. Since most illegal immigrants come to the U.S. for better job opportunities, disseminating information about jobs available for non-U.S. residents that will also lead to citizenship should help people choose a legal, job-offering path to immigrating instead of illegal immigration.This company should offer a wide variety of jobs, so people with all sorts of preliminary education could find a job to their liking. This company should also have jobs available that require little schooling, so uneducated people could participate in the program too. Lastly, I feel that this program should mainly involve jobs that do not get filled quickly currently, to avoid the appearance of jobs being lost to immigrants. A way to pay for this may be to use money from the Government category of federal discretionary spending. All throughout American history, our country has been shaped by immigrants, from Alexander Hamilton to Andrew Carnegie to Albert Einstein. These immigrants have brought great things to our country, and we need to repay that by eliminating the bigotry and racism that is currently targeting
