Problems To Illegal Immigration

The immigration patterns of the United States have fluctuated over the years, some years having little while others see a rising amount of immigrants, both legal and illegal, looking for opportunities to improve their lives. The amount of illegal immigration is a problem since many take advantage of the social services provided by the government without contributing towards the country since they are not citizens and many people see these illegal immigrants as a threat to their employment. Illegal immigrants do affect the U.S negatively in a number of ways, but if those illegal immigrants were to have a safe passageway towards gaining citizenship, the immigrants would contribute greatly towards the

Immigration has been a problem since the 1800s but now in the 2010s the immigration rate has increased over the years. We expect the immigration numbers to go up if nothing is done to stop from illegal immigrants coming across the border. There is many different viewpoints to look at immigration, many thinks it's good that they are in the United States because it could help the United States ecological standards. Some others don't like it at all that they are in the United States because of jobs getting outnumbered by illegal immigrants and leaves no american to get a jobs at certain companies.

The problem with immigration is that the federal government has failed to control immigrants coming into the U.S. illegally. This has caused a substantial increase in illegal immigration that threatens the U.S. economy.

The debate of who should be allowed to enter the United States has been an issue for many years, with the large number of people entering and living here illegally this has become a significant talking point amongst the candidates in this presidential election. But are their views something that should be shared and supported by Christians today? There are definitely two opposing views from Christians on this topic. I will present both views regarding illegal immigrants in the United States and then I will present my own opinion on this topic.

I feel that immigration is one of the biggest issues that face the world in whole. Immigration is an important topic that needs a lot of attention and something that needs to be influenced to seize. It brings so much conflict between governments and individuals, causing disputes amongst them. I often here so much about immigration on the news nowadays. I feel that immigration isn’t a bad thing but when it begins to be illegal is when I feel it becomes the problem. I hear of people coming into America for different reasons such as financial benefits and employment. I think the biggest issue about it is getting those illegal immigrants back across the border. I strongly feel that the illegal immigrants that go to another country to do bad things such

“More than any other nation on Earth, America has constantly drawn strength and spirit from wave after wave of immigrants. In each generation, they have proved to be the most restless, the most adventurous, the most innovative, the most industrious of people. Bearing different memories honoring different heritages, they have strengthened our economy, enriched our culture, renewed our promise of freedom and opportunity for all” (Clinton 146). Those are some wise words from a former president who explains the importance of immigrants and has the mentality of a person who has reason. For many, or everybody, walking through a hot, dry desert with no water or even through a cold, windy and rainy desert would not be an activity that they would like to engage. Even though this dangerous and severe weather goes on, several people still immigrate illegally because they want what is going to be best for them. Some make it all the way and unfortunately some we do not hear about ever again.

Historically, the United States accepts more immigrants than all other industrialized nations combined. According to the article, Sill Missing: Undocumented Immigrants in Health Care Reform pointed out that in 2010, the president of the United Stated, Barack Obama, signed the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to reject undocumented immigrants from purchasing health insurance coverage through the health exchanges. Moreover, they would not benefit from Medicaid as well (Galarneau, 2011)

On February 28th in 2000, Luis Alberto Jimenez an immigrant living in the U.S was coming back home from work when he was involved in an accident in which he was hit by a stolen vehicle near Palm Beaches Gardens in Florida. Jimenez was rushed to Martin Memorial Hospital Center, where he was attended to and stabilized, but this was after he had suffered acute brain damage and other injuries. Jimenez was speechless and immobile according to his cousin, Montejo Gasper, who was also his guardian. This tragic event started a major debate in the public where some others supporting the hospitals decision to repatriate undocumented and uninsured immigrants and others against the repatriation. Jimenez finally came out of his inactive state though many supported Martin Memorials decision to send him back to Guatemala, which was his home country. The main issue was the uncertainty that Jimenez would receive better care back in Guatemala. Many physicians realized that the repatriation could possibly lead to his death.

The United States of America, a country created by immigrants, is currently facing what some consider to be an immigration crisis. As of 2012, there is over eleven million undocumented illegal aliens living inside the United States. Both the American public and the lawmakers elected to represent us are divided on the issue. Some people view the influx of immigrants crossing over the border from Mexico to America as a good thing while others view it as a disaster waiting to happen. Regardless of ones view on immigrants coming over, most people are in agreement with the idea that we must change the way we are currently dealing with illegal aliens.

The United States is a country that has always drawn much of its strength from having people come here and add to the energy and prosperity of the country. Immigrants who have chosen to make the difficult and challenging choice to move to America have often been some of the most productive citizens of the countries they left behind. They are, by nature, driven people who were willing to take the risk of pulling up roots and moving. As a result, the United States has, for the most part, gotten the benefit of talented and committed citizens who have raised our culture and our standard of living. Right now our country is facing the problem with undocumented immigrants and has to decide what to do about the eleven million people living here illegally.

When it comes to Enrique and Lourdes I believe that they do defy the stereotypes. This book gave me the knowledge of what really goes on with illegal immigrants. The trouble they go through to get to America is unbelievable. Some even have to the repeat the trip multiple times. Enrique himself had to eight times. The worst is the beatings he went through most times. How can one endure something like that multiple times? The police were nothing, literally nothing. The law is meant to protect people not join in. The emotions come from Lourde and her story leaving your children behind is something I cannot imagine. After reading this I do not think anyone judge immigrants the same.

Illegal immigration has been a huge problem for the United States throughout history. The United States has 1,989 miles of border with Mexico and each year more than 500 million people cross the borders into the United States, 330 million of who are non citizens. The question is should the U.S close its borders for good to get discard this problem? The answer is yes. Closing down the borders that divide Mexico and the United States will not affect U.S workers and their jobs as many people fear, economic migrants come into the U.S. in search of economic opportunities, in other words jobs. Whether immigrants are low skilled or not they complement native workers or accept jobs native born people don’t want or can’t do. “No wall, moat or border

According to USA.gov, “it costs an estimated $113 billion for 13 million illegal aliens and their U.S. born children in federal, state and local governments.”(www.USA.gov). Finding ways to reduce the increasing amount of costs per year, an idea that was placed into action that that would create and implement a law, which would restrict these programs only to the person whom has the legal status within the country and excluding the rule to those who remain illegal, this included illegal step-parents and parents of their U.S. citizen child. Another important way in which the rise of more illegal immigrants adds another burden to the economy is through the judicial system. Which goes over resolution of disagreements both civilly regarding lawsuits

There is a big problem these days and it is immigration. There are estimated 11.4 million unauthorized immigrants in the U.S. “Immigration is the act of moving from one country or region to another for the purpose of settling there permanently.” America’s Immigration laws need to change. Immigration laws today are not strict how they should be.

For a decade now, terrorism rates have been climbing steadily around the globe. Recently these acts have caused heavier enforcement toward the borders in America. Foreigners seeking to become U.S citizens are having more trouble doing so, which is not benefiting neither point A nor point B countries. For example, in Mexico, problems like these are quickly growing worse and worse.
