Simple: A cultural and marketing phenomenon known as the U.S. Latino market." - Bromely Aguilar Associates, media kit, 1999 Over 35 million Latinos live in the United States alone. Every minute, the U.S. Latino population grows by 2.5 people. From a marketing perspective, that is another 150 potential customers arriving every single hour or 3,600 per day. With the release of the latest U.S. Census information confirming that Latinos are here to stay, passing African Americans as the largest minority group in the country, marketers would be foolish
There are many reasons why we should support immigration reform such as: immigration is good for the economy, immigrants already pay taxes, everyone deserves equal rights, it strengthens families, and it can stop racial profiling. Many of us can say we are children of immigrants. Either our great grandparents, grandparents, or even parents came to America for a better life. Today, we find that immigration is not seen as a positive for our country, but rather it is unquestionably considered
politics, or the Mexican government’s neglect of its peoples needs, one tends to pick the explanation that is best suited (and/or most beneficial) to his environment. For example, I chose to blame the “Mexicans” (my former default name for all illegal aliens) because I really didn’t care to spend any more time than necessary contemplating the situation. I rarely encounter the immigrants and it is simpler not to consider that they have good days and bad days, a life and a family the same as I do. In Foucault’s language the immigrants, as the both the problem and the cause of the problem, were a landmark of my thought (Foucault, “The Order of
Counseling Psychology Date: 5/7/2012 Approaches on Counseling Immigrant Population I. Background Immigrant population has become an increasingly significant part of the composition of the United States population. According to the statistics from Department of Homeland Security, 694,193 foreign-born citizens were naturalized in 2011 alone, and let alone the huge number of non-citizen population living in the country. Among the naturalized citizens in 2011, the largest subgroup comes from Asia, which has taken up 36% of the whole immigrant population, and India (6.6%), Philippines (6.1%), and China (4.7%) are the top three Asian countries exporting immigrants. While country-wise speaking, Mexico is the one contributed the largest number of immigrants – 94,783 (13.7%).
In America today, the issue of immigration is a cause for debate. Families that decide to flee their typically poverty-stricken countries in search of the ‘American Dream’ of opportunity, are forced to pick up unwanted and exhausting jobs that pay next to nothing, often way below minimum wage. Although this human exploitation seems unethical, the illegality of immigrant workers leaves them with no choice but to take whatever it is they get. Consequently, employers acquire a hard worker for next-to-nothing wages, which is clear reasoning for the sheer amount of immigrant workers in America. Recognized as taking the “dirty jobs”, the many skilled labour workers are fundamental to the smooth running of the country and ironically, without them, America’s rich economy would crumble.
Everyone should have a chance to look for a better life without been treat like a criminal. Illegal immigrants shouldn’t be reported instead they should be legalized. Illegal immigrants come to this country for safety because in their country they live scare that they can get kill and they also want a better life like making their dreams come true and buy things that they never have before. There are many immigrants in this country, but it also helps the economy of this country. Safety is what many people look for and if in their country they can’t find it they have to go out of their country and find it.
Also, if people lived in a country with a strict dictator, they could be arrested without reason. If you were caught saying anything against the government you could be arrested or killed. This mad citizens angry and they decided to immigrate to America. In conclusion, freedom, jobs, and cheap land were all the major pull factors that made people want to come to America. The immigrants wanted jobs to support themselves and their families.
felonies. Misdemeanors and the kind of things even mostly law abiding citizens run into (parking tickets, speeding tickets, paying taxes late, jaywalking etc) wouldn't count. The reason here is that you want EVERYONE in the country to respect the law - and you don't want a large population in fear of even minor violations. But alas such a reform is far far too radical in today's political climate. (I do support the Startup Visa types of efforts - but I worry that they exclude far too many people - and that innovation comes from the most unexpected places - not just from folks with technology degrees or who have been vetted by venture capitalists) Collapse this post Why Not Let Immigrants Employ Americans?
(Costa) Most Americans point out the bad and disadvantages that immigration brings, but immigration does bring benefits. When immigrants come to America they are not given or placed in high end jobs, they take whatever they can get. That shows how determined and desperate these people are in coming to this country and trying to start a new life. Immigration analyst Daniel Costa says immigrants are harder working then most of the average American because they make more of an effort to stay in this country and they see that by living here it is a privilege and not a right, which some Americans take for granite. (Costa) Immigrants contribute back to the U.S by expanding their culture and ethnic traits, which creates a more diverse America.
Amnesty The illegal immigrant issue in America is an ever increasing issue. Bills have been sent to be passed to the president and have been declined. The issue now is becoming more and more of a problem, when our borders go unprotected. The problems that illegal immigration causes to a society and a nation can be harmful. By granting these people amnesty, we can counter some of these problems and provide a system in which people can be treated fairly and not be forced to be paid less and soak up the benefits of living inside the United States without contributing.
