Nation of Immigrants

immigration policies because people who want to enter legally are having a hard time and some people who enter illegally get breaks and that is not fair. Becker wrote in his article,” a less radical method of improving present policy and combating illegal immigration would be to allow a larger number of skilled and young people to enter legally(218). Whether we are from Europe or Asia, whether we come from a communist country or a socialist country we all believe in these values because we chose to come here. Denise Topolnicki stated in her article, Making It Big In America, “The vast majority of today’s immigrants-legal and illegal- are doing well, or at least striving to pave the way for their children to live better lives(225). This nation was based on these same values that we now believe in. It is the ability to live in such a society that has made the American people successful economically and politically. I believe America is not a race but it is an ideology of values. We must remember that we can never satisfy everyone and therefore we must find ways to help other people in other ways rather than letting everyone in America. But immigration is not about one factor but it affects different factors such as labor, politics, and the economy. We also provide the opportunity for immigrants to work and have prosperity in their lives. I believe that there must be some reforms in the U. There have been times in our history that large numbers of people escaped their country and migrated to America so that they can live in a free country.
