Politicians and some other american citizens complain that immigrants don't bring anything positive to this country. Is that true? First of all lets remember that America was a nation made by immigrants: British, Irish, Germans and many others from different nationalities. So why Americans can't accept immigrants today? That's definitely a great question.
There's a lot of arguments that state that immigrants only bring problems to America. Does that mean that immigrants are responsible for all the problems in this country? Some people argue that immigrants take jobs away from american citizens. Almost all immigrants work in jobs that have the worst conditions, some work in the fields, other in factories or some as construction workers.I'm sure that if someone has the opportunity to go and see for example the workers in the fields you won't find an american there. If you go you will only see Hispanic immigrants who come to work hard to provide for their families. Now lets ask our selves do Americans do that kind of jobs? The answer is no, so why do people argue they take jobs away if they do the jobs that nobody else wants to do. The problem is that something called racism lives and makes people have this attitude and bad feelings towards immigrants.
Immigrants just come to help America, they come with the hope of finding a better live that they can't have in their countries.The immigrants who founded America came with the same hope. Think in California for example their main source of income is agriculture. What would happen if immigrants don't go to work for a day, a week, a month, or a year?That would make the economy go down.They come to help America. Our ancestors who were immigrants came with the same hope and dreams. Hard working immigrants deserve the opportunity to be legal in this country. Lets remember that once we were all immigrants and that this nation was created by immigrants.
