Immigration a curse for the economy
by Christine M - February 24, 2010
United States, February 24: Who says immigration is good for the economy? It is actually a big curse for our nation.
Let’s digest this fact anyways that immigration, whether legal or illegal, is not at all good for the American economy. And anyone who says that it is beneficial is not a true citizen of the US.
The increasing number of immigrants coming into our country is proving scary for the American citizens in all respects. Those who want to propagate the cause of providing US citizenship to immigrants, specifically undocumented immigrants, must think twice. How can we even think of such a foolish act?
And if we think of comparing an undocumented alien with someone who has true love and respect for this country is absolutely unreasonable.
United States is already going through tough times after being hit by the recent global economic crisis. The US citizens are finding it tough to get jobs for themselves. There are no jobs in America. People desperately need jobs to fend for themselves and their families. In such a scenario, how can we even think of allowing immigrants to not just come into our country but even grab the already scarce jobs from those having US citizenship?
It’s not just the jobs; these immigrants are also making the Americans poorer by dragging the wage rates to the lowest possible, just to meet their own ends. So, if, at all, we get a job, it’s at desperately lower rates. Let’s call it ‘importing poverty into our country’ by throwing open doors to these aliens. That’s another abuse of letting these immigrants into our country.
These aliens from poorer countries are too willing to do cheap labor. And the effect has to be borne by the American society. The social and public services are getting heavily burdened from the incoming herd of immigrants. Schools, health care and several others are bearing the brunt.
The worst is the violence and the malpractices introduced into the society by these low educated immigrants. They are a curse to the
economy of the nation because by allowing them entry, we are putting the security and safety of the country at stake.
Its high time we put a full stop to the imbalances created by these uneducated migrants in our country if we want to progress ahead. Is
anyone listening?
