Immigration Position Paper

Immigration is one of the hottest topics Americans are talking about because people are always saying for Hispanic to go back to MÐ"©xico when first of all ,“we are not all from MÐ"©xico” we come from different countries of the world. The reason people say this is due to the closest and most popular place people cross to America are at the boarders of the United States and MÐ"©xico. Every day hundreds of people cross the border to get a better life. Also, they leave their old country because they don’t like the government or they disapprove with what they’re doing. Immigrants from any country see the United States as “The Land of opportunities” and that’s the main reason they come here and want to make a new life and get a better living. Also they want basic human rights like freedom of religion, speech, press, and being able to make money without the government taking half the money.

The reason immigrants are good for society is that they fill in the low-paying jobs which no other American want to do; they pay sales taxes, and also they rent homes in areas where it’s crowded and cheap and people don’t wants to live. Also they mostly all have bank account that build interest and that goes to bankers. The immigrants with cars buy car insurance and contribute to insurer’s margins. The main concerns about this are that all immigrants should not be hated nor should be sent back to their country if they haven’t done anything bad because it’s just not right. I think that the ones that are in gangs and doing illegal activities should be sent back because those are the ones that are putting a bad image in the rest of the Hispanic community and they don’t want to be looked at as criminals. They just want to be looked at as hard and well educated workers. I know there people in this country that complain about immigrants coming to this country and how they want them to go back to MÐ"©xico ,but Stats shows that every year the government is spending more and more money on us for welfare, Medicare, and food service like WIC and Free School Lunch. People say that if they really wanted the immigrants out they wouldn’t spend that much money to help them and give them extra points on the SAT just because they’re not white. That’s when problems start by the white Americans saying that they don’t have equal right any more just because we get extra point for not being white. The bi-lingual people who speak Spanish and English get paid more just because of the increase in Hispanic migration that can help them out if they don’t know English while the person who doesn’t know Spanish can’t help then and there’s money lost.

The main reason I’m for immigration is from self experience because I know a friend whose a son of Hispanic origin parents who came to this country 22 years ago illegally and did it to have a better life and start a new families. His parents are no longer immigrants, Dad is a citizen and Mom is
