Schengen Immigrant Advantages
Signed in 1985, the Schengen Agreement created a single European territory without any internal borders. When it came into force in 1995, the main effect of the agreement was that citizens of signatory states could travel across borders without passports(Gaffey). Thus, it eliminated border checks among its members and also allowed foreign visitors to travel throughout the area using one visa. Currently, once you get a Schengen visa and enter one of the member countries, you can travel within and between them for the next three months (Didjurgis). There are 26 member states. Due to recent terrorist attacks as well as the influx of refugees, migrants, and asylum seekers, some member countries have put up borders; borders that are allowed. The

    The Pros And Cons Of The European Union

    The European Union is a political and economic Union, which is collectively made up of twenty-eight European countries. The intention of the European Union is to foster economic and political cooperation between the member states, and “to make war not only unthinkable, but materially impossible.” (Schuman Doctrine) The belief of the European Union is that by promoting trade and interdependence between the member states, it will not only make them less likely to engage in war with each other, but it will also be against their best interests both politically and economically. Today, the European Union collectively possesses the world’s largest economy, is home to the world’s third largest population, and is the world’s largest exporter and…

    Summary: The Immigrant Advantage

    In conclusion, I strongly feel that Americans could greatly benefit from adopting some of the immigrant customs discussed in The Immigrant Advantage. Kolker herself could be used as a role model or example for how a family could benefit from some of these traditions, from the money saving habits of the Money Club to the ease of dinner preparation using the Com Thang. I wholeheartedly plan on attempting to make use of available family members whenever it comes time to introducing my child to the world. The knowledge and love that an older family member would be capable of introducing into our home could easily prove invaluable. I also hope that by the time that my children are entering into their college years that I would be able to provide…

    Senior members of the Grand Old Party, formerly referred to as the Republican Party, have recently pushed the Trump administration to gradually cut off the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) from funding and legal support.

    Immigrant Work Benefits

    I agree that having a diverse group of worker brings many benefits. Immigrant works help both the economy they are working in and the economy they come from. The immigrants will work for less which helps companies spend money on improvement for their companies. The workers then send some of the money they make back to their family in their home country which helps stimulate that economy.…

    Summary: The Benefits Of Immigration

    The benefits of immigration is that it allows us to fill our workforce with people willing to work, which in turn increases production. When immigrants come into this country they normally come to work and live the american dream. This desire, results in a work ethic that in some occasions cannot be matched by US citizens, so jobs that US citizens are unwilling to do are done by immigrants willing to work. This increase in employment generates more revenue for the Government through taxes. The more people in the US working the more money the Gov. will have. Immigration also diversifies our society, unlike any other country. The more diverse our country is the more we will learn about other cultures and judge others less. The cost of immigration is that it can undermine American workers because, immigrants are used to working for lower wages in other countries so when they come to the US they take jobs from americans because they work for less. This leaves many Americans unemployed and unhappy. Also, many immigrants that come into this country do not have much money, so they need Government aid. The increase in immigrants is a huge burden on public programs. Another cost, is that some immigrants come into the US to avoid prosecution from their country. Immigrants like this is a danger to our society and raises our crime rates. I agree with most of the immigration policies such as Arizona’s law that allows police officers to check anyone’s citizenship and report anyone who is illegally in this country. I agree with this policy because anyone in this country illegal is breaking the law and should be treated like a criminal. Im okay with allowing immigrants into this country, I do not want to close the boarders, however there is a right way to do it. A policy I disagree with is denying healthcare to an illegal immigrant. Although they are in the country illegally I do believe every human has the right to healthcare and should be assisted regardless of citizenship or willingness…

    The Pros And Cons Of Immigrants To The United States

    If you were born in a poor country and you could barely survive, what would you do? If you heard that there are opportunities for a better life in more advanced countries, would you try your luck there in an attempt to provide a better life for your family? Although the reasons that brought all the immigrants to the Unites States may vary, a typical case is that in which an individual is born in a family with limited resources and he comes to the U.S. with hopes of having a better life. Those who have empathy would want to help those going through a difficult situation by letting them into our country. However, simply acting based on emotions is not sufficient; reasoning and logic are crucial when governing a nation. After an examination of…

    The Advantages Of Mass Immigration At The Turn Of The 20th Century

    In this essay I will discuss the advantages of mass immigration at the turn of the 20th century, such as the influx of fresh labor into the American workforce and the reawakening of America’s social consciousness. I will then reconcile the advantages of old mass immigration with that of today’s migrant populations who are revitalizing rural America with economic growth and labor surplus. The turn of the 20th century brought great change to the cultural landscape of America. By 1900, over 39.7 percent of America’s population lived in cities with 2,500 people or more, compared to the measly 5.1 percent of the urban population in 1790.…

    The Benefits Of Immigration

    Today in America the topic of immigration; the act of moving from one country to another country for permanent residence, comes with a negative connotation. Generally this is due to the fact that the word immigration is associated with issues like terrorism, crime, overpopulation and sanctuary cities. And it is because of issues like these that many Americans question the benefits of immigration. If this is true the question we should be asking ourselves is does immigration contribute to a better America? The answer; although clouded by several fears and, is and should always be a bold faced yes.…

    The Future of European Citizenship

    On February 7th 1992 the treaty of Maastricht introduced European citizenship. This finally defined what an ‘EU citizen ' is, most obviously in the amended Article 17 of the Treaty of Rome. This declared that in order for one to hold "citizenship of the Union", one must hold "nationality of a Member State". So anyone with nationality to a country within the European union is immediately granted European Citizenship. Consequently all nationals belonging to states joining the EU will also be automatically conferred European citizenship. It was also established (in the case of Micheletti vs. Delegacion del Gobierno en Canabria) that, since being a National is decisive for EU citizenship, it is up to each member state to "lay down the conditions for the acquisition and loss of nationality". In the same case it was also concluded that should a person have dual nationality with only one belonging to a member state, they are to be granted EU citizenship, meaning the EU 's citizens are spread beyond the borders.…

    The European Union (EU) was founded as the European Economic Community (EEC) by the Treaty of Rome in 1957 to promote economic and political integration in Europe. The beginning of the EEC followed the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community, created after World War II as a means of promoting integration among former enemies. The EEC has expanded from its original six members (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, and Netherlands) to include United Kingdom, Ireland, and Denmark in 1973; Greece in 1981; Spain and Portugal in 1986; and Austria, Finland, and Sweden in 1995.…
