Allowing Illegal Immigrations To Still Get Benefits

I will now present my argument. [1] Causes of Illegal Immigration: Often time immigrants emigrate to other countries in search of cheap jobs, housing and better living conditions. A prime example would be the reasoning behind increase in immigration from Central to North American between the Cold War and now. Many immigrants the Central American area immigration to the U. S in search of better living conditions away from high-crime, economic inflation and sometimes more oppressive governments. In fact the Cold War was played a major rule in influencing American immigration policies. As imagineable, this was caused by issues preceding the Second World War in which refugees immigrated to the United States to find shelter and conditions more suitable for surivival. The majority of this European immigrants were Jews. To reiterate, illegal immigration is often caused by the need to find more afforable housinng, work and generally better living conditions. So in order to understand why immigrations come to foreign lands whether legally or illegaly, one must first step into the shoes of said immigrant. While stories may vary, it is generally the same concept. As much of the world today is under political pressure. Ukraine and Russia are having their problems, Palestine and Israel, Central America has an incredibly high crime rate in general, in Africa genocides and Civil Wars are still occuring. And here is evidence that such a thing can exist. A young student from a high school in Chelsea, MA in the United States moved from South Sudan in Africa to the U. S to find a better life, and to get a second chance at an education. . http://www.wcvb.com...The young man is willing to work hard if he must to get by, and will not fail himself and become homeless. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Another part of the argument that comes into play dates back to the time of European countries colonizing other nations. Be it the British, French, Flemish, Portugese and Germans teaming up on the continent of Africa, or the Spanish conquering most of Central and South America, there is no denying that Europe pillaged a lot of land that belonged to foreign ethnicities and civilizations. It is pretty well-known throughout the world today that Europeans did not simple kid the natives of these foreign and newly-explored territories into giving resources and into enslavement, the colonists forcefully invaded their land, raping citizens and enslaving the stronger men. As well as forcing religion, language and general components of European culture down the throats of the native citizens. But the Puritans that emigrated to the unfamiliar U. S territory committed mass genocide against American Indian / Native Americans and were responsible for a massive reduction in the general populace of them. . http://historynewsnetwork.org...Another point to touch upon is the American "holiday" of Columbus Day. In which American citizens have days off to sit around and do absolutely nothing productive. So who is this Christopher Columbus whose name is tossed around the country quite often? He is a sex slaver, a murderer, a sociopathic imperialist, in accordance to the article found on boingboing. net, which describes it perfectly. But several other articles also support the concept, and the majority of American educatioonal facilities have taught their students at some point or another about the true atrocities Columbus had committed against natives of foreign lands. . http://boingboing.net...http://www.danielnpaul.com...Several other sources can be found by reading up on books at the local library or a quick search on Google. Ever since the independence of these once-colonized countries from all around the world, chaos ensued. And that is not because those countries were meant to stay under the control and influence of their owners, but because the governments of the dominant nations never taught the vassalized people how to run an economy, government or how to, at all, be self-sufficient. In fact that was the main issue with European powers releasing African countries in the 1960s, the only successful citizens were the elite collaborators who willingly let the Europeans run their lives and eventually got brought to Europe itself. In the Second World War, many Africans were forcefully drafted into the military under segragated regiments in which they would go to European soil and fight. The Africans were absolutely shocked to see the Europeans being destroyed, as they were always portrayed as perfect and rich to them. [2] Immigrants Work Hard: Many people who advocate against giving benefits to illegal immigrants and who generally fight against letting immigrants flow past the United States' borders will claim that immigrants steal the jobs of citizens already within the U. S border. However, this is untrue. And according to the U. S Bureau of Labour Statistics, American unemployment has gone down to 5.5%, reducing slowly since Barack Obama's attainment of presidency in the elections of 2008. . http://www.tradingeconomics.com...Barack Obama is a president who is a major player with foreign policy and a person who can truly understand what most people who immigrant illegally go through in daily life. And ever since Obama's presidency, it is undeniable that the rate of illegal immigrants has increased immensely. But with that there is an unexpected fact; the unemployment rate continues to shrink because the immigrations take the cheap labour jobs, expanding the businesses that employ them, and causes more and more corporations to pop up throughout the country, which are more expansive and are wealthy enough to afford a larger number of employees than the local corner store. But Obama also works with reducing the power and influence of the private sector and tries to help out poorer businesses with getting more of a floodgate for employment. . http://www.businessinsider.com...http://www.dpcc.senate.gov...And though President Obama's plans to increase job growth have succeeded, one negative drawback happened as a result of the plans to accomodate the availability of jobs in the country: wages became smaller. With more and more jobs needing to be established and the industry expanding at the rapid rate to satisfy population growth, wages decreased by 23%. . http://www.wsj.com...http://www.reuters.com...However, since recession, the unemployment rate in the United States is below 6% for the first time. If immigrants come to the other lands to work and pay taxes, regardless of whether or not their immigration was with or without the legal process, they should be granted the permission to receive benefits. U. S citizens who often complain about employment tend to suck up Social Security and Welfare checks to pay for their food, bills and to support their families (or selves) by other means through the Social Democratic, federally funded programs Obama released to the public in the nature of being a liberal. But in the nature of needing a helping hand because they actually need it, immigrants (both legally and illegally) collectively use more Welfare and social programs than do native citizens. But that is more logical than not. . http://cis.org...http://www.itep.org...http://usgovinfo.about.com...http://www.immigrationpolicy.org...Article after article, statistic after statistic, it only becomes more and more evident that immigrants make a very clear contribution to the success of the community of the U. S, and the same principle can most certainly be applied to a majority of other countries in the world. The U. S just happens to be the most common and simple real world example to use because it makes the most sense to use it. American politics often involve foreign policy, unemployment rate and social programs, but this packages all in one.
