Since 2011 the country has been in disarray and consumed in a vicious civil war displacing millions of inhabitants of the region. Several countries have offered aid and asylum to these refugees, which raises the question: Should the United States (U.S.), a prominent world leader, allow Syrian refugees to seek asylum in their country?

The last century in America has proven to be detrimental to the job source for men. Men have to adapt to a different work ethic in order to survive in today’s society. In the early nineteenth century both farming and manufacturing jobs were the employment for men, according to Thomas Mortenson (138)."In the 1910 census, one third of all workers were either farmers or farm laborers. Today those workers account for less than 2 percent. During World War II, about 35 percent of all jobs were in manufacturing. Today only about 10 percent are” (Mortenson 138).

The problem will emerge in a few years, when hopefully the war eases off but also governments start to decide that people are able to return.
