Opportunity
Immigration which is the act of moving to another country to live permanently is a controversial issue here in the United States. Often times people are quick to looking at the negative things immigration can cause which in the reality immigration creates so many opportunities to both the countries people are moving from and the countries that are welcoming the people. Immigration is an important factor in the improvement of any nation because it supplies multicultural, economic,political and social growth.
Could possibly stop racial profiling.
The practice of racial profiling is based on stereotypes and assumptions as opposed to facts. For example Donald trump is a very out spoken person he sometimes may go overboard with his language such as when he claimed "Mexicans come to steal American jobs and some are rapist" America is a land of free opportunity it would be irresponsible for an immigrant to come miles away from their home land to waste the opportunity the get. It is also disappointing to have to live in a society full of educated people who's main concern is race or ethnicity, hopefully immigration can help others look beyond someone's race and be willing to work together to build a better nation.
Cultural diversity.
Immigration has drastically diversified america which is positive because it has enriched American culture and enhanced our influence on the world. Immigrants bring native aspects of their cultures with them which contributes to Americans view on the world. As Daniel Griswold says " Successive waves of immigrants have kept our county demographically young, enriched our culture and added to our productive capacity as a nation, enhancing our influence in the world"
Home countries benefit from remittances.
immigration is a two way system that can benefit both the country losing the people and gaining the people. in the case of a the home land of the immigrants they benefit by what their citizens take back from what they gained out of migrating to another county. Most immigrants have a goal to better their nation so it could open up doors for other people.
Returning immigrants take back skill and savings.
Once immigrants get educated to a certain level have choose to achieve they can always go back and expand their knowledge in their home countries and start up business which can create jobs for the fellow people in their home countries. they can start up networking businesses and learning institutions that could train other to workers that could help expand the company, such innovations can benefit both sides.
Seeking better educational and living standards.
Most immigrants who migrate at a younger age which could be early 20's all the way up to mid 30's they seek a better education which can build into a career. With the population rapidly increasing and the high demand for occupations it's increased the standards of levels of education. Most jobs today are not hiring people just based off how long they been in school but what they've earned in school as well as other contributing factors. Immigrants seek a better education mainly because they want to be able to live a better life and that helps to develop a better nation. Apart from getting a good high quality immigrants also seek a better standard of life, a life they can look back at and be proud to say they has fun and made the best out of their life
Creation of jobs.
Often when critics of immigration state their case they often times only focus on labor market which isn't the main point of immigration. immigration patterns affect industries in a different way which certainly has a huge impact on the pay of workers. Critics overlook the increase demand for services that come along with the growing population. Immigrants are willing to work low pay jobs with require skill and/or little or no skill jobs, which in the reality the average american would rather not work low paying construction jobs because society has manipulated our minds to think such jobs are for "illegal immigrants". Overall immigration creates more jobs because the population is increasing hence the demand of goods and supplies.
Teamwork
Immigration along side with it many other positive influences has a huge impact and on relying on each other to archive our goals. Certain people are naturally good at specific things like in general American are good at medical innovations and teaching and training and Chinese people are known for innovating technology just these two things can build a great nation by cooperating together to form great.
Economic growth
Not all immigrants come to the united states to seek education or a job, some immigrants come to provide business contacts to other larger markets as well as improving America's ability to trade and invest in the global economy. Immigrants raise demand for good as well as supply which benefits America's economy.According to the fiscal policy institute, small businesses owned by immigrants employed an estimated 4.7 million people in 2007, and according to the latest estimates, these business generated more than $776 billion annually. immigration plays a huge role in today's society it may not have a direct impact on the average american family but in the long run it affects the way the american system runs. creation of jobs for native born Americans are created through immigrants business so all in the end its a network that works together to benefit everyone in one way or another.
