Immigration: Impact Upon America's Social System
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. Supporters of proposition 187 contend that undocumented immigrants are taking over the entire country. Initially, they sought out the United States as a haven from their own country's less-than-inviting lifestyle, inasmuch as America represented a new start for many who suffered repression and the inability to make it on their own. Crossing the border into the United States has changed all of that; once here, they are not only able to obtain good paying jobs -- usually without the added burden of paying taxes -- and a decent place to live, but they have also tapped into America's health and educational systems, as well. Indeed, the impact of their presence is overwhelmingly negative upon the nation's citizens being that those who arrive illegally into this country do not typically seek citizenship, much less pay into the system like the other millions of rightful Americans do. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Though screening and treatment of public school students can be costly, it also should supply extensive cost savings to the community in terms of adult care that can be avoided in the future.
