Facts About The United States

Living in two different countries can be a great experience that can change someone's way of thinking. We live in a world with many countries and different types of people, making us compare each other and ask ourselves how is this different or similar. For example, in Brazil, they speak Portuguese, but in Colombia they speak Spanish. That's one difference. Yet, Brazil and Colombia are in the same continent. Now, that's one similarity. In my case, I have lived in Venezuela and in the United States and sometimes I start comparing many things like economy, government, culture, topography, weather, traditions, etc. Many people don't notice how many difference and similarities two countries can have.

Immigrating to the United State mean is immigrating to the United States from another country. About 14 million people from around 2000 to 2010 immigrated to the United States from around the world. America is an immigrant country. According to the U.S Census Bureau. About 43 million the Americans were born outside of the United States in 2017.

America offers so much to the people who live in the U.S., but America will always be full of criticism, violence, and people who are offended by everything. America still seems to manage to be one of the world's best nations. The first Americans planned America to be as successful as it is, but for America to be more peaceful. America is not one of the most peaceful places, but it is not the most dangerous place to live. Even political parties lie and cheat each other. A lot of the Americans are greedy, because they take advantages of what America offers to their citizens. Even though America is not perfect I am still glad to live in the U.S.

America is a selfish country that thinks that they are beyond others and everyone's out to get them. They are inhospitable to others from another country because they are scared that their jobs might be taken away.

I want to compare the US to some nations that are very similar and culture and beliefs. To start I want to compare it to the UK(England and Wales). Culturally we're very similar having originally come from England. And the United Kingdom having possession of an automatic firearm sending out a firearm or a handgun is prohibited. They have tried to make it as hard as possible for anyone to possess a firearm with hours of paperwork and third-party references required. This is a result of a massacre that happened in 1987 resulting in 16 people dead and another nine years later after school shooting took the lives of 16 children and their teacher. with all of the strict laws their homicide rate lies around 1.1 per 100,000. This is compared to about 5 per 100,000 in the US from Senate call University. To counter that argument the UK has a higher robbery rate then in the US, this could be due to the fact that store owners have no way to protect themselves. Another alarming statistic is that the UK has higher sexual violence rate than the US. This is surprising thing that the US

September 11, 2001 was a milestone in the history of the United States, which experienced a collective shock and trauma that has never been forgotten. In the United States most of all, the entire airline and tourist industry was driven to the edge of bankruptcy and would not have survived at all without a major bailout by the federal government. It was already in poor condition for many years after deregulation in 1978, the September 11th attacks were a Near Death Experience. After that time, the airlines decided that they could never permit another attack like this or they would be driven out of business. As it was, their stock prices collapsed and passenger schedules did not return to pre-September 11th levels for four years. All previous security plans were judged to be useless and inadequate, and were taken out of the hands of private security contractors and turned over to the federal government. New and more restrictive laws like the Patriot Act came into being, and the U.S. launched an all-out war on Al Qaeda that has continued for eleven long years.

I strongly believe that America has a culture of violence. Just think; since 1966, a whopping 889 people have died during mass shootings. In 2015, there was over 25,000 gun related injuries in America. As of yesterday, 776 people have been shot and killed by police this year.

A study in the Journal of Quantitative Criminology says that the American people use guns to defend family members or themselves 989,883 times per year.
