We The People

Recently I saw a poll implying there are overwhelming numbers of Immigrants that call the United States their home weather or not its temporary is no concern of mine;; what I find irritating is the fact we do not welcome them?

What irritates me more is the millions of dollars our beloved country pans out to foreign countries that do not want to have anything to do with the United States, its crippling to say the least, food and healthcare follow this thought.

If a group of people from any nation, bringing with them their culture, what America thrives on indecently that are willing to work filling in the work our people refuse to do, where s the problem?

To my surprise I have heard from one to an immigrant, speak English, and even the ignorance of , hey Brazilian! By the way, its Brasilero. However, what if they weren?t Brazilian but Peruvian? It is not correct to say, hey Asian, but you know that because we covered that in the early Eighties when Americans started practicing politically correctness, so why the surge of impoliteness?

I know why/? The bottom line is we are lazy! We have gotten soft over the years relying on unemployment, healthcare, and other state funded benefits. A strong economy, companies with lots of business both domestic and export, that offer vacations, sick days and personal time. Take these all away and more you will understand the influx of immigrants in our country.

Truly it astonishes me because when I was a kid we learned Latin in school, the schools had discarded the language as I entered high school? As the curriculum changed requiring four years of English and two years of a foreign language, either German, French or Spanish were needed to graduate was required at the time I finished high school? Respectfully, you make yourself look ignorant not learning in school another language, but don? fret these immigrants can speak English too. In their own country most are very educated and capable of having blue collar and white collar employment where they are from? It is our University standards that is holding them back from dominance in the workplace?

Immigrants, have brought to our country what our great nation is made of, leaving behind their own homeland for a prosperous life in the United States of America. Of which I might add are our neighbors bordering the U.S. to the south. They bring culture, language and strong working ethics much of what our country lacks now?

This last generation has watch their single parent working hard putting in long hours, never home with little benefits on the table. Quietly they objected starting out of high school, ?I will not work for less then ten dollars an hour,? I hae heard them say. Forcing employers to cutback benefits like healthcare, dental alike? Setting aside jobs in the intern that are less then minimum wage which have created a gap in the workplace where the immigrants are filling the void.

Informatively I have learned in the news polls that most Americans approve of immigration reform. And they support the workplace, taking up the slack in overtime such as healthcare, i.e., hospitals, nursing facilities where time is demanding.

Personally I embrace their culture, the food, song, and dance. American people seem unhappy to me as a whole for many years, where as the immigrants bring to the table what maybe the other immigrants have in the past. However, I am sure we will get over this one day too as we have in the past and welcome our neighbors to the south sharing their freedom of speech through language, song and dance and we will be friends forever; e nos fica amigos para sempri!
