The Crisis Of The United States

As far as morals are concerned, humans have this undying need to help everyone, and the United States in particular has been thrusted into this role of the world’s “police,” and “savior,” but at what cost? Millions of refugees from Syria and Libya are pouring into neighboring countries seeking asylum. The only problem is that those countries’ economies, infrastructure, and resources cannot handle the influx of people, which is why the United States should help those countries out, financially, as to protect those refugees and protect those countries that don’t want the refugees to enter their borders.

Additionally, we should not get involved with other countries problems. In doc #7 “Most likely, they cannot return home or are afraid to do so. War and ethnic, tribal and religious violence are leading causes of refugees fleeing their countries … The Convention was limited to protecting mainly European refugees in the aftermath of World War II, but another document, the 1967 Protocol, expanded the scope of the Convention as the problem of displacement spread around the world.” This document talks about how refugees leave their country from problems they are having over there, than all their problems come into our country and then we have to fix there problems knowing that we can start a war with other countries for problems that we didn’t start and want nothing to do with. Likewise, doc #8, It includes this chart

The refugee crisis that plagues the world is often referred to as the Syrian refugee crisis, and Western countries are usually concerned only for the affect it has on them and their country. Yet the countries taking in the most refugees are the relatively stable nations in the Middle East that are closest to those in crisis, like Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey, not the wealthy nations most capable of supporting the refugees. These countries are often small and suffering their own economic and political woes, and struggle with the masses of refugees entering the countries. Various groups are working to raise money and support for these refugees, and other poor African and Middle Eastern countries are attempting to do their best, but without the help of the wealth West, the refugee crisis is not going to go away. A question has been posed to the nations of the world; are they willing to take in any of the millions of the desperate refugees?

The period from 1776 to 1815 witnessed the successful effort of the new United States in establishing a country. During that period the new country won its independence, constituted itself as a nation, developed a political system, expanded geographically, and defended itself from external and internal threats. There were four major crisis that the United States faced in this period are the Battle Long Island, Battle of Valley Forge, War of 1812, and the Battle of New Orleans, which I thought it was the major crisis that the United States faced.

Regardless of what the United States government ultimately decides to do, it is important to stay open minded in drastic times like these. By attempting to remove the stereotype refugees have to carry around with them, assessing which countries we want to be associated with, and working to help those in need while keeping the security of American citizens in-tact-- America will be playing a very beneficial role in helping refugees acquire

Many U.S. citizens have no problem with Syrian refugees coming to America. According to both “Why America Could-and Should-Admit More Syrian Refugees.” and “Our Responsibility to Refugees”, The authors feel that The people of the United States are turning their backs on the refugees. In “Why America Could-and Should-Admit More Syrian Refugees.” the author says, “The United States has resettled over three million refugees, offering victims of persecution and conflict the opportunity to build a new life. Refugee resettlement is unequivocally safe. It would be wrong, both morally and politically, to curtail Syrian refugee resettlement, and why it is in fact both ethically imperative and politically expedient to instead expand U.S. commitment to refugee resettlement” (Long). This author sees nothing to fear from refugees. Furthermore, the writer of “Our Responsibility to Refugees” states, “The U.S. can do more and we must. Since 2011, more than 4.2 million Syrians have been displaced by war and violence, and fewer than 3,000 of them have resettled in the U.S. President Barack Obama has committed to resettling 10,000 Syrian refugees in the U.S. His administration needs to

In most places and communities, teen pregnancy is a problem. It affects the life of teen girls and teen boys negatively. They can go on to have a good life, but having a child as a teen will reduce your chances of fulfilling your potential. Teen pregnancy is a widespread problem that could be solved if people were more involved.

As of October 2016, the number of people in or outside of the country of Syria who are in need of assistance is about 22 million. (“Quick Facts”) 30 liters of water per day is what is what some places with many Syrian refugees have to work with; the typical American uses ten times that amount. (“Quick Facts”)  In the fiscal year of 2016, America went over the set goal by President Barack Obama; of the Syrians that needed help 12,500 were given sanctuary.(Morello) This success proves that America is willing to work and that the Syrian refugees that are in need can be sanctioned effectively and given

Financial Crisis of 2007-2008 originated in the United States spread to the financial systems of many other countries, including CIS countries, by means of the domino effect. Bankruptcy of one of the largest Americans Bank, Lehman Brothers Holdings PLC, in someway was a launcher of this global crisis the scope of that can be compared with the Great Depression of the 30s of the last century. No one could have even believed that a crisis in the local market of subprime mortgage loans in the USA would have such enormous affect on the financial systems over the world and crash banking sectors of many countries one by one.

The Federalists believed these two issues were essential in maintaining a country's livelihood. They believed a country could not survive without the power to tax or a standing army to defend against encroaching European powers who were watching and waiting for the newly founded United States of America to fail. America was in crisis during this critical period. They had no idea or a reference to turn to. The "Critical Period" meaning when America was new, struggling, and trying to be a super power to be taken as a potential threat against the European super powers of that day and age.

Taking in refugees from countries in a crisis is a basic humanitarian act. I have witnessed this first hand with my dad mentoring a refugee from South Sudan and helping him get on his feet, and now he is extremely successful. The difference from twenty years ago when the Sudanese were refugees today is that there is the risk of safety. In the Middle East, especially Syria, there is no way to be able to verify that the refugees are just civilians and have no hatred for the U.S. Until there is a way to totally be able to verify that the refugees are totally risk free it is not worth the risk of taking them. We has a country has to learn from what is happening in Europe because of the sheer number of refugees that were allowed into their countries. It would be silly to make the same mistakes and risk having the similar outcome of repeated terror attacks, and whole groups of people choosing not to assimilate to Western culture. While Syria is in a humanitarian crisis and they need help, the safety of the United States and its people is the most important thing and cannot be risked. The only evidence needed is that in Europe where there are terrorist attacks almost every single

There are 21.3 million refugees in the world, and with under-developed countries such as Lebanon and Turkey taking in millions of Syrian refugees, a well-developed country such as the US is clearly not doing their part.

Currently there is a refugee crisis . People from different places are fleeing their countries to survive and escape the violence where they live. The best solution for this crisis would be for the U.S. to accept refugees (way more than they already do) and help them out. There are many reasons why this is the best solution. One of the reasons being that we shouldn't commit the same mistakes that we have made in the past. Besides most people in the U.S already want to help. Refugees aren't even a problem problem in the U.S.

The Syrian refugee crisis has received massive media coverage. People around the world are trying to comprehend the desperate, complicated situation surrounding Syria. The civil war in Syria is the worst crisis in our time. Syrians upset at the fact that long promised reforms have not been enacted, began anti-government demonstrations which started the civil war in 2011. The peaceful protests turned ugly, with the government violently putting an end to those protests. Afterward, ordinary citizens took arms, causing the situation to escalate. Syrians are fleeing their homes because of the great violence, which have left thousands dead and millions wounded, a collapsed infrastructure, resulting in a shattered economy, and for the safety of the children. Syrians are either streaming to surrounding countries or risking their lives to travel to Europe.

Because Syrian refugees are fleeing terrorism and poverty as the conflict escalates in their home country, European countries have a moral obligation to help those who are forced to seek asylum. For instance, in their New Statesman article on January 17, 2014 (2014 1) on the UN meeting discussing increased aid for Syrian refugees and Britain’s refusal to accept any, the article states,
