KENNETH DAVIS CJAD 320 JULY 6, 2009 PAPER 1 TOPIC: LATINO AND HISPANIC AMERICAN CULTURAL GROUP The Latino and Hispanic American Community reflects the full range of economic, educational, and cultural diversity that we see in America today. Latino and Hispanic Americans are the fastest growing cultural group in the Unites States today. The population growth can be attributed primarily to higher birthrates, higher immigration from Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and greater longevity which is the culmination of being a relatively young population. Immigration has been good for America. Immigrants throughout our history have embraced the freedoms and opportunities we enjoy in the United States and produced untold economic, scientific and artistic contributions.
Arias perfected Costa Rica’s democratic government, education, transportation, and communication by placing the necessary laws in action. He also made major improvements on infrastructure; for example, he drastically improved Costa Rica’s section of the Pan-American Highway, which greatly increased communication and transportation. Arias’ desire to achieve a lasting peace in Costa Rica and Central America is obvious when one looks at what preceded his Peace Plan. The country of Nicaragua has been in conflict often because of outside influences like the United States and Russian Marxists. The rise of the Sandinistas and the Contras in Nicaragua had possible serious
Of course the normal person would love to have thirty days of paid time off that rolls over if not used. It sounds like a very good career but the average person doesn’t see the grueling and intense deployments these young men/women have to endure. I have experienced for myself and I believe that there is little balance between there work and the enjoyment of recreation in their life. If anything these sailors are underpaid and over worked. The government needs to implement a plan where there is more time at home and less time out to sea without jeopardizing the United States sea power.
Those employers work overtime but did not get the pay that they deserve. Instead, employers who came late to work will not be tolerated. This has caused many employers to get stressed out, leading to suicide attempts. The reason may be because the labor costs in foreign countries are cheap compared to United States. However, I think it is wrong to take advantage of those employers’ lives by not providing those employers fairly.
They came for new job opportunities, to make names for themselves in the new world, and to establish themselves and their family’s lifestyles. Robert Cornwell from Independent Magazine said, “We must all work for the dream, it is not just handed to us.” This means that even though the American dream is what everyone wants to achieve, you actually have to work at it. In our current society, many people expect things to be given and not have to work for them. They complain about having no money and no support, but they won’t go out and find a job with that kind of attitude. Small businesses make the American Dream come alive.
The raise in GDP doesn’t come mainly from taxes, because even if they are legal immigrants (which are not the case usually) they have minimal income. The raise in GDP comes mainly from the production that those workers manufacture. Immigrants are the lower solid base of every industry. Another plus for the economy is that those people, who migrate, are highly motivated to succeed and this makes them better employees. They have no one behind their backs, so they know every single mistake could be hurtful for their job position.
There are very specific details that show how miserable her life is. For example, "Besides, the invariable squabble for money on Saturday nights had begun to weary her unspeakably” (Paragraph 5, line 11). Her father would never give her money so she always gave all of her money and Harry sent what he could as well just to help. Her father said she used to squander the money and that he wasn’t going to give her his hard-earned money to throw about the streets. In the end, he would give her the money because he wanted Sunday’s dinner.
The result was a convincing United States victory, and there were many consequences for the emerging power. The most significant was the signing of the Guadalupe Hidalgo Treaty, which represented, among other things, a massive expansion of United States territory. The Treaty had many effects on the United States apart from the land, such as The Gadsden Purchase, the start of major tensions between North and South US that eventually led to the civil war, the opportunity for settlement and economic development in the new territories, and the issue of slavery that was raised which led to the Calhoun Doctrine and the Wilmot Proviso. The Guadalupe-Hidalgo treaty was signed on February 2nd 1848, and ended the Mexican War. The treaty ceded to the United States the states of California, New Mexico, Nevada and Utah, as well as parts of Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, Wyoming and Texas, which was used to establish the new eastern border between the US and Mexico, the Rio Grande.
She has recently started hanging around more with hr 'black friends family and stays the night sometimes to avoid going home to her dad and brothers. Recently she started getting in touch with hr real dad who seems to have an influence over her too.

She is falling behind with hr school work and sometimes truants. She is spending more time at hr real dad’s house and only goes home 2-3 a wk for a change of clothing.
To solve this market failure, government intervention seems to be the only feasible solution so far. The government can either subsidize or ban unpaid internships. However, subsidy is not reasonable because based on cost-benefit analysis. It costs the government too much to solve this market failure. On the other hand, banning unpaid internship opportunities is not effective because if business could not afford to provide internships, young graduates cannot gain experiences and provide positive externalities to the society.
