'United States Constitution\r'

'In the introduction of the book They Take our Jobs! : and 20 other myths about immigration written by Aviva Chomsky, Chomsky picks away the words in the unite States Constitution to pledge her belief that although immigrants, specifically Latino/Hispanic immigrants, ar a large part in nowadays’s U. S. society, they still do not do any obligations or protection from the laws of the Constitution. She states that many an(prenominal) another(prenominal) of the arguments against immigrants in the unify States stem from â€Å"serious misconceptions” that have been grow from history up until present day.The view that immigration only brings about more problems and segregations for the host awkward has been on-going in history. When it comes d stimulate to it, a simple analogy could be made: it is difficult for the citizens or â€Å"homeowners” to be forced to house immigrants or â€Å"strangers” in their own country or home. This idea is then mis inform and made extreme when times atomic number 18 stout or the people of the united States need a scapegoat to put their problems or the government/societal issues on.The finger is pointed at the group of outcastsâ€immigrants. They are wanton targets. Easy because immigrants who are non-citizens are â€Å"legally strip” of many rights the U. S. Constitution stomachs for citizens. What many fail to realize, as pointed out in Chacon’s Introduction in No One is Illegal is that immigrants who are here, prepareing, living, and build a life here in the United States contri exclusivelye a great deal to the boilers suit economy and working socio-economic class.They take part in the credit lines that require heavy manual(a) labor and provide the basic jobs for many large corporations in the United States at minimum wage. Rest assured, it is probable that many of their jobs should be compensated at a higher(prenominal) pay for the type of work they are doing, si nce roughly are jobs that many of the middle and higher class citizens cringe at when they think about it. I have speculated that the amount of wage pay or salary today is based upon one’s credentials or experience rather than the manual load or extremities of the job at hand.This correlates to the jobs that many immigrants take on, they do a lot of work for little pay. They work for huge well cognize corporations and provide the labor needed to keep output at a particular rate. When times are tough and jobs are difficult to find, like right now, the blame is put upon the immigrants who hold these types of jobs. It is said that â€Å"they steal our jobs” and that is why we are unemployed and out of work. However, when aspect at the core of the problem, it is not that the immigrants are ith jobs but rather the fact that the higher salary salaried jobs and higher wage paying jobs are foundation let go first due to the downward(prenominal) economy and replaced wit h other persons who may be little qualified but could still complete the job and task at hand. As discussed, immigrants are a big part of today’s â€Å"world” and the fact that they lead their daily lives just as a citizen would, immigrants are still not given(p) certain simple rights a newborn churl is given at birth in the United States due to biases, beliefs and judgments based on history classes, politicians, and the media.\r\n'
