Figure 3 shows the changes of global economic power over time. There are many reasons for the shifts in economic power such as the Second World War and the collapse of the British Empire. In 1913, Britain had a GDP almost twice the size of The USA's and made up 37% of the world's economy. By 1950, Britain's economic influence had decreased, its GDP now making up only 7% of the global economy. During this period The USA had become the world's largest economic power, making up 27% of the world's economy compared to the 19% in 1913.
Most of the things these immigrants do in the U.S. is illegal; avoid taxes, work illegally, live illegally, etc. The biggest problem with them is that a majority of them do not pay taxes. Households with an illegal immigrant as the head of the house only pay 1/3 of the federal taxes, or ¼ as much as a legal household. The debt that illegal immigrants cause to the economy is far greater than the good they do. As Steven A. Camarota tells in The High Cost of Cheap Labor: Illegal Immigration and the Federal Budget, “Households headed by illegal aliens imposed more than $26.3 billion in costs on the federal government in 2002 and paid only $16 billion in taxes.
income inequality. Sixty-one percent in this ABC News/Washington Post poll think the wealthgap is larger than it’s been historically. And despite longstanding public concerns about activist government, six in 10 also say the federal government should seek to reduce that differential. The public’s concern is buttressed by a recent Congressional Budget Office estimate that the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans have nearly tripled their incomes since 1979, while the bottom 80 percent of earners have seen their share of the nation’s total income slightly decline. This poll, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates, finds that 37 percent perceive the wealth gap as “much larger” than it’s been; just 5 percent think it’s smaller.
As a result, the "budget for U.S. Customs and Border Protection has in total increased by 92 percent from $6.0 billion in 2003 to $11.3 billion in 2009" (Immigration Reform). Now with America increasing its spending, there should be cutbacks to the number of illegal immigrants pouring into America right? It is the exact opposite. According to Ojeda, "the unauthorized immigrant population in the United States has roughly tripled in size over the past decades, from an estimated 3.5 million in 1990 to 11.9 million in 2008" (Immigration Reform). With all the money America is spending to restrict illegal immigration, the number of immigrants are not decreasing.
When labour became government in 1997, Blair’s most fundamental and prioritised aim was focused on education. Between 1997-2007, there was a 48% rise in core funding per pupil. In September 1998 however, every student was made to pay £1000 tuition fees for higher education. By 2010, when the coalition government came to power, cuts were made towards the education system by approximately 80% and students presently have to pay around £9000 tuition fees for higher education a year. This government spending policy changed due to the change in government.
Those who are critical of Reagan’s policy speak of the explosion of the United States’ budget deficit during the 1980s. The deficit was $101b in 1981 and had risen to $236b by 1983.
