In recent years, the issue of immigration has become an important debate for everyone because it concerns to all citizens. There have two different type of opinions one opinion think that it brings more positive impact and another opinion believe it brings more negative influence. This essay will discuss why the positive effects of immigration to the UK more than the adverse effects it brings, also it will discuss this issue from two main aspects economic and social impacts also reference to the UK.

Since the start of our country, America has been known as a land of immigrants, a melting pot of different cultures and ethnicities working towards the American motto of the land of the free, home of the brave. Since colonial times, immigrants have been an integral part of society, majorly contributing to U.S culture and economy, yet many Americans have always had very conflicting ideas on immigration. Many people look past the benefits immigrants bring to our economy and society and instead scapegoat them for many of the United States’ problems surrounding unemployment and budget. The positive effects of immigrants, both legal and undocumented, in our country far outweighs the negative effects because of their important impact on society and the economic help that American relies on.

Immigration has been an essential but disruptive aspect of the people and the political state of the United States; however, debates related to immigration and its benefits are intensified significantly. Opposing immigration keeps ranting on how government should exercise better law to control over the people entering into the States from the foreign land. One of the most buzzed argument is that American citizen is unemployed because immigrants stole their jobs and disrupted the economy (Hoban, 2017). Also, an appeal to National security and vulnerability after several terrorist attacks all over the world and also to the government to keep track and maintain the no. of immigrants to create a safer environment (Cafaro, 2009). However, the contrary to these arguments have often been proven right. The pattern of the immigration shows that the contribution of the immigrants has resulted in an economic boost that cannot be overlooked by the government.

Immigration boosts the economy of America by improving employment, productivity and income. The accessibility of low skilled immigrants, earning low wages, has allowed American firms to expand and to create new jobs, increasing the production of goods and services, while keeping the prices down. In other words, the drudgery of immigrants manifest in the growth of production and extension of services. America is known as a land of opportunity because people from different countries come here to make their ideas a reality. Growing population of United States is directly proportional to the economic growth. Large population means greater domestic market, more workers, more new ideas which improve productivity, more consumption, increased national savings and enormously larger number of outstanding, highly effective people working to improve the nation’s economy. People often argue that immigrant workers

The United States of America has the largest foreign-born population in the world. With nearly thirteen percent of the total population being foreign-born, one may find it hard to imagine an immigrant-free country (U.S. Bureau of the Census). Immigration has been an integral part of the United States’ overall success and the country’s economy since it was established and without it, would have never been founded at all. Although there are some negative issues associated with immigration and many native-born Americans believe to be more of a problem than a solution, overall it actually has a positive effect. Immigrants in America, among other things, fill jobs where native-born Americans may not want to work or cannot work, they contribute

Immigration has fueled the American society from the beginning of its creation. Without immigrants, there would be no America. From ones searching for religious freedom to others seeking economic prosperity, America would not be the successful country it is today without its foreign-born masses. This country has thrived on its people’s diverse contributions, and it has stimulated our economy greatly. It is the place, no matter who one is, to thrive in the acceptance of one another’s differences. Unfortunately, there are others that oppose the very thing that has made America what it is today. Despite certain disapproval, the impact immigration has on America is remarkably beneficial to the economy; this is evident when analyzing its positive effects on gross domestic product (GDP), wages and employment, and other economic contributions, which in turn has stimulated colossal economic growth for America.

are the effects of globalization and immigration on the nation’s economy. Globalization is speeding up and the discussion on whether movements like outsourcing will wear down U.S. competitiveness or provide long-term improvement continues to carry on. Many are misconstruing the positive impact immigrants are having on this country because there is this looming misunderstanding that immigrants are stealing American jobs. But there are countless numbers of skilled immigrants who are in our country legally and are actually creating jobs rather than stealing them. The goal of the data provided in this document is to prove the economic and intellectual contributions of skilled immigrants at a nationwide level. Saxenian provides numerous evidence of the economic impact skilled immigrants are having through data provided by a sample of all engineering and technology companies founded in the last ten

Immigrants foster innovation and increase the well organized labor market in the way it increases the economy of the country. As stated in the article “A Review of Benefits and Costs Imposed by Immigrant Population on the U.S Economy” written by Jeremias Ramos, immigration is often strongest in relation to the entry of highly-skilled immigrants into the United States of America labor marketplace (203). For instance, people who admitted to come to the United States of America by Diversified Visa (DV) Lottery are selected by considering the education level. This helps to have educated people in the country who can be innovators or educated workers. As the educated people workforce increases the economic growth, the country changed faster because

“America was indebted to immigration for her settlement and prosperity. That part of America which had encouraged them most had advanced most rapidly in population, agriculture and the arts”-James Madison

For many Americans, the word "immigration" creates up an image of poor, uneducated Mexicans rushing across the border to find minimum wage jobs and opportunities for a better future.The issue of immigration has become a major debate for everyone. Although critics argued of negative impacts of immigrants such as drug trafficking, overcrowding and threatening of American culture, immigrants still have a very great impact in our society. Immigrants cause an impact in our society politically, economically and culturally. Immigrants arriving in a new country should make every effort to conform to the social norms of their new environment.

Most immigrants have stated that if they had to do it all over again they would still migrate to the America. After the 9/11 attacks in 2001, immigrants claim that the government has become stricter on immigration. Some claim they have experience discrimination due to the attacks. The public developed a negative attitude about influence in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. A survery reveilved that half of Americans said tighter immigration policy would do a great deal to enhance U.S. national security. Harvard political scientist Samuel P. Huntington argued that if massive immigration were to continue from Latin America, especially Mexico, the consequence may be the bifurcation of the United States. In 2011 the population of illegal Mexian immigrants in the United States dropped by a million. The reversal of the immigration trend was due to the economic downturn which meant few jobs and also tougher immigration laws.

“An immigrant is a person who legally comes to a country to take up permanent residence. An “illegal” immigrant is a person who does so without following the established legal procedures of the destination country and who resides in that country without proper visas or other documents.” (source 1)Illegal immigration is changing the lives of many Americans today, and although all illegal immigrants are not bad and are not here by choice, or to hurt anyone, it still affects us each and every day. Illegal immigration has been a problem for many years, and it seems as if it is impossible to control, but according to former mayor Rudy Giuliani of New York it can be controlled. Giuliani stated

For decades immigrants to America were sure of two things. They came for the opportunity to build a better life for their families and they would not seek nor would they accept a handout. The drive and attitude of immigrants who came to America during the nineteen twenties through the nineteen sixties built strong work ethics that created our now famous American melting pot. But for the past thirty years a runaway welfare state has poisoned our good intentions. Well meaning but misguided entitlement programs gave billions of dollars in free handouts to a deluge of new immigrants as the floodgates opened and annual immigration levels more than tripled. The effects of this mass migration

Immigrants have been coming to America since the start of this country. However, there is a fine line between an illegal and legal immigrant. Although most immigrants come here in search of a better life for themselves, they do not think about the consequences the rest of the country must fac. Since they are not citizens, they do not receive some of the benefits that an American citizen has, including health care and public schooling. Although they do not have these benefits, they continue receive treatments at hospitals and attend schools, which Americans cannot afford. Illegal immigrants affect the United States’ economy, health care system, and education system in a negative way.

Today, the United States is home to the largest immigrant population in the world. Even though immigrants assimilate faster in the United States compared to different developed nations, immigration policy has become an highly controversial topic in the Unite States, while much of the debate is around culture and religion, the effects of immigration on economy is clear. Immigration policy has become a highly pressing issue in America. While much of the debate centers on cultural issues, the economic effects of immigration are clear. Economic analysis finds little to no proof to support that influx of foreign labor have reduced jobs or American wages. Economic theoretical predictions and a bulk of academic research confirms that wages are unaffected by immigration over the long term and the economic effects immigration are mostly positive for natives and for the economy over all.
