Persuasive Essay On What Is America

Likewise Kim Jong Un lies about his country being the top of the line and the best there is. Both powerful leaders utilize deceit and dishonesty to improve their social image.

There country is around 28 times smaller then the U.S. The United States is known for leading the world in so many things. They took charge in the later half of World War 1 and World War 2. They took charge in the Korean War and in the war against communism. But when it comes to saving the lives of countless innocent lives we do not take charge.

America has gotten itself in so many world wide events like, war in the middle east , nuvlear threats from russia and north korea , and terrorist attacks . Ever since the 1970s we have been taking in refugees from many countries such as africa and syria .

But how many people have you actually helped, and how do you know that they don’t just take your money and buy products that can be detrimental to the health of said person. The US should not give foreign aid, this is the same thing on the street, just a global scale with a few concentrated areas. We have to help ourselves before we help others.

When America claimed its independence from Great Britain in 1776, its founding fathers couldn’t have foreseen that their country would become involved in as many foreign conflicts as have occurred in the past century. As America became a world power at the turn of the twentieth century due to its military capacity and economic capabilities, the nation became involved in humanitarian crises which even involved mass genocide. The U.S. provided aid in these international crises, sometimes even to the point of supplying military force. Although highly controversial and continually debated, America’s position as a world power will always bring with it the responsibility to aid in humanitarian crises when it is identified that foreign citizens are denied basic, recognized human rights.

In Africa there is a little girl named Zuzo, who never knows when she might eat again. That is why my parents give money every month to help Zuzo and her family. My parents do not do this because they are forced to, but out of their own free will.

We aren’t even close to being free, we aren’t a country who based our idea of being free and let people come into our country to feel safe and to feel at home. “The land of the free and the home of the brave” (Francis Scott Key) is the national anthem, it is saying men and women are free and we are a strong country that doesn’t give up on each other. In fact, we aren't even the top 15th freest country in the world, that should mean something.

Fourteen years ago my parents and I immigrated to this country. I was only three years old; therefore, I had no say on whether or not I wanted to come here. My parents were young when they made the decision to move from Mexico to the United States. They knew the sacrifice they were making by coming to this country, but they did it so I could have a better future At the age of 16, I was fortunate to be eligible to apply for DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), since I received DACA it improved and forever changed my life.
