A Bohemian Immigrant
I strongly believe that Antonia would agree with this definition simply because she is a Bohemian immigrant. What I mean by this is that coming from what she came from, she sees that her parents made nothing in to something. They moved from their country to re locate in Nebraska for a more opportunity filled life. Therefore, she does believe that to be dissolved into something complete and great, you just need to put forth the effort. And it will come as naturally as sleep! “People who don’t like this country ought to stay home “I said severely. “We don’t make them come here “This is a quote said by Jim. This helps strengthen my argument simply because Jim is stating that immigrants who come here should not even come if they

    Fidel Castro Ruz immigrant father worked first recruiting labor for U.S. sugar companies and later built up a successful plantation of his own. He loved his life as a rebel and attempted to steal equipment from the Cuban military in the eastern city of Santiago. I don’t think that is the right thing to do is try to steal equipment from Cuba. One of the reason why I don’t think it is a good idea to steal from there not that they will hurt you or shoot you or blow up your city you’re from its just Cubans don’t have nice things and barely are leaving because they are so poor. Although when the immigrant father tried to steal he did go to prison and some of his other men were killed. I still don’t think they should go and try to steal.…

    “is a nation of immigrants, but also a nation of laws, and these concepts are not mutually exclusive.” To suggest that the U.S. currently lacks laws regarding immigration and that President Trump’s failed immigration order would fill this void is highly irrational and ignores concrete immigration policy. Stewart further suggests that “we should never underestimate the unimaginable devastation that can result from a small number of [immigrants] driven by hatred.” “National security and public safety,” he writes, are “the preeminent functions of government.”…

    My Antonia Quote Analysis

    When thinking of how Jim defines happiness, I think that Antonia would disagree with this quote,”…to be dissolved into something complete and great, When it comes to one, it comes as naturally as sleep.” Throughout the book Antonia is ready to do everything right then at that time, and she doesn’t have the patience to wait on the good things to happen. Antonia is always ready to work and learn something new, but she lacks the patience to learn and to make sure she does it the right way. What Jim was saying is that, happiness comes at the right time, and that you cannot try to force it. The quote, “and I did not want to be anything more. I was entirely happy.” “Jim was glad that he felt like this in the hard times.” Also, another quote to…

    Mr. Schwarzenegger’s lack of ethos makes his article seem underdeveloped and less creditable. Schwarzenegger believes immigration is an issue in our country but it can be solved with a good policy. To make his argument stronger he needs to quote someone with experience to give their opinion on the subject of immigration. He makes some compelling points but without someone with authority backing up what he is saying, his argument looks solely based on Mr. Schwarzenegger’s opinion.…

    On Tuesday, January 10, President Donald Trump delivered his first State of the Union address. A large portion of his speech was devoted to the controversial topic of immigration reform. A careful analysis of his remarks reveals that he does not want undocumented people living in America. Although he does squeeze in some ideas that will allow a limited amount of immigrants to receive citizenship most were ideas to them keep out or severely hurt their chances. Trump uses a series of rhetorical devices to label undocumented immigrants as bad beings such as logos and pathos, repetition and anaphora.…

    “The Immigration Debate We Need” was written by George Borjas, a professor at Harvard, reporter, and economist of The New York Times. Borjas claimed that Trump’s immigration policy is more beneficial than what people make it to be. In the article, he said, “I am [the] living proof that immigration policy can benefit some people.” that supports the idea that the policy is not bad, but useful in society. In the article, he targeted people who are against the immigration policy because he wanted to spread the awareness that Trump’s policy is beneficial. While I was reading this article, I was starting to agree with his viewpoint because he said, “The climate suggests that many Americans view that number as too high”, that means the policy can…

    People from different parts of the world come to America in search of freedom and opportunities to make a better life for themselves and their children. However, due to the political uncertainty in the United States, immigrants are not welcomed or accepted with open arms. By being unwelcoming toward immigrants not only are we preventing them from coming to America but we also prevent aspiring, and hardworking individuals who have the potential to make America a stronger nation. Though some people will argue that there are many natives who are willing to work and are left unemployed because immigrants are taking their jobs; this argument is simply not true. During the 2016 Presidential Election, Hillary Clinton stated that immigrants have a…

    Immigration by definition means arrival of settlers in new country. Leaving ones country in hopes of finding a new country in which one can settle and make a new home is what makes immigration an integral part of human nature. Immigration in biology leads to genetic variation and higher survival levels. When one talks of immigration, now concerns of economy and living arrangements are the first thoughts that pop in the minds of many. Social and economical positions are extremely intertwined with the concept of immigration. Immigration leads to higher rates of competition in the economy which leads for businesses to have higher output levels, in turn giving room for more workers to be hired. Immigration also leads to more social diversity. More cultures are placed into areas with hundreds if not thousands of other cultures and soon the society becomes greatly diverse. Looking into the past, immigrant workers were responsible for the construction of this nation. This is indeed a nation built off the sweat of immigrant workers from the world over.
