A Route to Citizenship in Defense Bill (Post #11)
On Saturday the Wall Street Journal published an article about David Cho a student at UCLA and an illegal immigrant from South Korea who arrived in the U.S. twelve years ago at the age of nine. Mr. Cho is one of the 825,000 illegal immigrants who may gain american citizenship through the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors bill—informally known as the Dream Act. This act would give illegal aliens who came to the U.S. by the age of 15 and who had been in the U.S. for five years and graduated from high school legal residency for six years in return for two years of college or military service during that time. At that point the young person would be eligible for citizenship. Proponents of this bill argue that it would help military recruitment by adding patriotic soldiers and benefit the country as a whole by adding educated population. Opponents think this bill is a thinly veiled amnesty bill. What do you think? Would this bill help the military and america as a whole. Does service prove loyalty? Commitment to becoming a citizen? Does immigration policy belong in a defense bill? Could this be political theatre to gain votes in the coming midterm elections?

This bill could help military recruitment a lot. If the illegal aliens' only options are to go to college for two years or provide military service for two years, they are likely to go the military route. Many of them probably don't have the money to attend college or even get a loan to pay for college. Military would be the only option for a lot of these people. Just because they join the military however, does not mean that they are helping us. They could join only to leak some of our secrets to their home countries and that would not benefit us in the slightest.
ReplyDeleteI belive that the more educated the population of a country is the beter the country benefits. An illegal immigrant that fights in the military of a country that they were not even born in shows that they want to be a part of it. The United States would greatly benefit from the increase in the military epsecially in times of need. Why would a country want to reject a more educated population. I think that an individual who serves his country deserves the opportunity to be a citizen of the country. My parents brought us when we were little kids,a and we have gotten an education that benefits us and the United States. People that come to this country for good deserve the opportunity to cetizenship.
ReplyDeleteI think that this bill is great for the U.S. military and for our country as a whole. It is an amnesty bill, but we are gaining highly educated people or those who are willing to risk their lives for a country that does not even allow them to vote yet. I do not believe this will mean a massive introduction of new citizens either. An immigrant has to first find a way to pay for two years of college or commit to the military, and neither of those options are relatively easy.

i think that this is a good plan for the US, it will allow the illegal immigrants that are here to become citizens while helping out our country through either the military or education. The illegal immigrants are her, now they can become citizens while doing good and helping the country. Sloan p.3
ReplyDeleteIt seems like it would be a great benefit for both the US and for the immigrants. They (immigrants) get to come to the US and get an education, while we (US) in turn get soldiers. It's a win win situation for the time being.
ReplyDeleteThe Bill would definently lead to more patriotic military people as they would feel better about fighting for a country that has provided a lot for them. It would also promote a better educated population which is needed during a time where the country is in need of quick thinkers. Immmigration policy can be in any bill that immigration affects. Whether it be economic or educational, immigration is something larger than just one area so it should be taken into consideration that America needs to crackdown on immigration.
ReplyDeleteI think this bill would help our military recrument alot and give more people the right to suceed in this country. Not only will it help america suceed, but it would also helped them economically. We would have more educated people in this country and that would make violence go down.

I agree with this and think it would be a good idea to pass this bill. It would be good for the U.S. we would have more available soldiers to defend our country. These immigrants most likely will not have the money to attend college anyways.
ReplyDeletei believe that service to the country can prove loyalty, but if they're here illegally they've already broken our laws. illegals should be (in a perfect world which this is not because we depend on their cheap labor) deported and gain access legally to be here.

ReplyDeleteI think this bill would be good for our country. It would help our military out so much because we would have more citizens to choose from. The only thing that i would be hesitant about, would be some immigrants might not be loyal. Even though they have been here for awhile and fits the requirement to become a citizen doesn't mean they will be loyal to us. It will be hard for the immigrants to go to college because of the cost of it. If they are capable of going through everything to become a citizen then that's great for our country.
ReplyDeleteI dont think this is a good idea because the military should not be open to citizens of other countries ever. its not like there arent hundreds of military applicants signing up everyday to join the military, and these are natural- born citizen, which i feel, are the only ones the military should have. these people should go through the citizenship process to be even allowed into our country! they shouldn't just earn the right because they have gotten away with being an illegal alien all those years.

This bill will seem to help our military and america as a whole because it will not only give us more of an option of military personnel to choose from, but it will give us more educated minds in this country which any country needs. Let's just hope that no one coming from another country tries to abuse this and kills it for the rest by doing something stupid.
ReplyDeleteI think that bill could be America's ticket to get illegal immigrants to come and be citizens here legally. I think that this can help our economoy, because one, higher education means higher paying jobs to boost our economy and two, it will help our military. on the other hand it could be hard because not all of the immigrants could be loyal so perhaps if that happened then they could put some precautionary bill pertaining to that.

This seems like a very reasonable bill, specifically because, if immigrants are willing to participate in society, then there really isn't much difference between them and any other citizen. If they are willing to work and serve in the military or attend college, they are the type of immigrant we want...It's the ones who are here illegaly and do nothing to contribute to society that we want out, especially if they are committing crimes.
ReplyDeleteI consider this to be a great opportunity for the US to become a better country, promoting a more educated public. This act would benefit the US with more tax money coming in from hardworking people who deserve the right to progress just as any other citizen and improve the population with a better educated residence. The people who brought their children to this country at a young age did not commit a crime in wanting a better future for their families. Maybe the life and country they originated from didn't offer them the rights to freedom a person should lawfully sustain. They were just in search of a life worth living, as do all of us. & honestly, some people take what they have for granted, not fully recognizing what benefits this country has to offer. So I'm the end, I do believe that this Act is one that should not go unnoticed.
ReplyDeleteSloan P/2
As if states, the Dream Act would help the military and America as a whole because of its compromise. It also may seem as a bad idea if it is looked if the citizen who went through this act is not helping America and instead is harming it. Therefore, this service does not prove loyalty because it's up to that own individual even though it may be commitment to his/her citizenship.

I think that this bill is a good idea. Immigrants want citizenship and complain about it. The kids who actually want to be here to get a better education and like our country should be rewarded and get citizenship here. They are serving our country and bettering it as well. I belive that since they are helping out and actually want to do something in america that they deserve it.
ReplyDeleteI think that illegal immigrant kids/teens who come to the US shouldn't be thrown into the military just to prove their loyalty. They might be here for freedom or education, or even a better lifestyle because where they come from is poor or horrible. They should have a decision whether they want to join the military or not. We shouldn't put them in ourselves.
ReplyDeleteSloan Period 1
I think this bill would be good for our country because as others have already pointed out, it would lead to more military personnel and also a better educated country. I think this is a good opportunity for many immigrants because most likely they came to the U.S. in search for a better life. By going to college, their chances of a good job and success in the future are much higher. Also, I believe that this bill is great for many illegal minors because it might not have been their choice to come here in the first place, so at least they have an option.
ReplyDeleteI believe this bill would be an effective solution to our immigration problem. My only concern is how would we be able to force the illgal immigrants to follow this bill if they won't comply to our immigration law? Also how can we monitor them and keep them accountable to their committment?
ReplyDeleteI belive that the bill would be good for our country and for the immaragnts because it increases our educated poputation and also brings more defense to the U.S.Everybody in America deserves a chance to succed in life and get a good carrer and education.If a person that wasnt even born here would want to fight for this country then that means they really care for it.It is a great oportunity for immagrants to get a good carrer and also for the u.s to become a better country.

I think thatthis does show commitment to becoming a citizen. They didnt chose to come to the country of course im sure there parents did or agreed and they found a love for it. In wanting to become a citizen them going into the military definately shows commitment. This does prove loyalty.
ReplyDeleteI see the Dream Act as a wonderful opportunity for all people trying to achieve the "American dream". There are thousands upon thousands of undocumented people in America who are "blameless for their status and helpless to make it right. Most cannot leave their families to return to countries they do not know. They cannot legally work, qualify for scholarships or loans to pay for college, or serve in the military. They live in limbo, vulnerable to arrest, their dreams deferred, their hopes squandered." The Dream Act provides hope for those who once had none. "The educators and others who also support the act recognize how much better it is to encourage the aspirations of young people, not to consign them to lives of under-the-table jobs and unmet potential." Not only are we motivating undocumented people and helping the greater good, we are gaining a large amount of educated people. We are making America better by providing our "invisible" inhabitants education and documentation."The Dream Act alone won't achieve the large-scale reform the country needs. But it will be a desperately needed affirmation that fixing immigration is not all about border fear and lockdowns. It's about welcoming the hopeful."

I believe that this will encourage more of the teenage illegal immigrants to go to college, and get an eduication. Alot of the illegal immigrants that are currently high school juniors or seniors don't plan to go to college, and i believe this bill is a great boost to let them know that they can still get an education, and their reward will be to be a U.S citizen. Also, it'll help military recruitment and help our military grow stronger and larger. This bill overall sounds like something that will benefit our country.

I think this would help the military because of new recruitments and it would help our country because the population will be more educated. this is very important because the teens now will be the ones making the decisions in the future. Also, i believe it is not the kids fault if his parents brought him over illegaly. he probably didn't know. I sure didn't know about illegal immagrants at the age of 9. i didn't even know about racism. i think he deserves to be able to go to college, and to not be deported to a country he probably doen't even remember.

I believe that this bill could help the United States and our military, but in a way it could also hurt the U.S. To many illegal Immigrants in the u.s can cause a problem.

I believe that this Dream Act will be a great thing. Now that illegal immigrants have the chance to go to college, the number of educated people wil increase.

I think that this bill would be good for our country only if we could get the illegal immigrants to sign something saying they promise to apply for US citizenship. I think that the immigrants will feel more welcomed now that we have given them a chance to settle in before we start badgering them with citizenship and other stuff. But this bill would have to be regulated so we don't get too many immigrants at one time so chaos doen't break out.
ReplyDeleteI belive that no illegal immigrant should be declaires citizenship in 5 years of crossing the border. They should not also be able to attend public schooling.
ReplyDeleteForrest MacDonald
i believe the dream act will be a great idea. it will help the military with more recruitment and with a large amount of help and help us and the country be more educated with beter education.like poeple in this country who are immigrants want a beter eduaction but they cant have it and it will benefit them more to.People that come to this country for good deserve the opportunity to citizenship. it will befenit out country and everyone else i think its fair.
ReplyDeleteI believe this bill will help the military a lot. But, do we not have a citizen test? So why should these people not have to take it to qualify as a citizen? It doesn't make sense how we can treat some people differently just because they are going into the military.
ReplyDeleteI believe the Bill will be very good for the US. It will provide more military personnel, more great minds, and less problems with immigration. the more military is always better, we need to be prepared for anything. And if they go to college its even better so theres more great minds in the US. Also, if they pass the citizens test then there will be less problems with immigration. over all i think the Bill will do better for the US
ReplyDeletei think people who are willing to serve in the armed forces, should be granted citizenship, but then again, not all prove their loyalty.
ReplyDeleteveronica iniguez sloan p1
i say no because if some one wants to kill ur bad enough they will. anyone can play the part of a us citizen and then turn on us.just look at 9/11, they went threw many years of training just to kill themselves in a plane crash. it would be best if they stay over there and we will stay over here, and we can keep to ourselves and there will be that much less problems
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, This may benefit us as a whole, but it also is slightly offensive. Yes we may be putting more people into our military, but they are they really patriotic? I believe before any given citizenship, an illegal alien be tested at the minimum basics of our country. Until then, they may continue an education here but not illegally. I do think because some arrived before 15 they should have the opportunity to get a proper education (hence we being the "Land of Opportunity", which can be isolated to that of the West). Maybe at the age of 18 an illegal alien may apply to be a U.S. citizen. Fair enough to me.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. It can be quite difficult for illegal immigrants to gain their citizenship and I think this is a step in the right direction. This is America, and everyone has the right to become an American. Though it is wrong to just come here, live, and abuse the rights of being a citizen that is usually the only way anyone can come here. I think it’s great that they are going to be letting illegal immigrants come over in exchange for education or military because those are the responsibilities of young Americans that show dedication and a commitment to this country. And it would boost military which is a good thing for this country too.
ReplyDeleteI think the dream act is a well organized anc that will take effect positively to this country. It will help both immigrants and the U.S by recruiting more soldiers and by immigrants getting an education.
ReplyDeleteI BELIEVE THAT THIS BILL SHOULD PASS BECAUSE IT WOULD HELP THE MILITARY AND THE NATION AS A WHOLE.THIS MEANS THAT THERE WOULD BE A LOT OF MORE EDUCATED PEOPLE AND THAT THE U.S. COULD BECOME GREATER. THE BILL ALSO SHOULD PASS BECAUSE IT PROVIDES RESIDENCY AND I THINK IT DOES PROVE LOYALTY IN A WAY. IT PROVES LOYALTY BECAUSE THAT MEANS THAT IMMIGRANTS ARE WILLING TO BE IN THE MILITARY OR GO TO COLLEGE FOR THIS COUNTRY.THEY SHOW THEIR DEVOTION TO THE UNITED STATES AND THEIR DETERMINATION.

I have always belived that an option to become a citizen by joining the military was a good idea. If that immigrant is willling to fight and die for this counrty, then they deserve to be a citizen.
ReplyDeleteIf the Dream Act allowed illegal immigrants to earn citizenship in a due ammount of time, then I'd support the issued bill. There are always concerns about illegal immigrants, but since I don't really see the problem with people coming to America, I guess I don't really pay attention. In some cases I believe that the Dream Act would ease people's minds about immigrants. At least they'd be going to school in hopes of getting better jobs, having to start out new and not just taking the jobs of other people, having to work as equally hard to get to the top. And thoes who choose to be in the military would be kind enough to be willing to defend our country, proving their loyalty. Also, getting a good education would benefit America. The next immigrant could work very hard to become a highly recognized doctor who vowes to help better the lives of his country's people.
ReplyDeleteI think this bill sounds good and seems benefitial, but it seems that there is some room for error or disruption. There are so many illegal citizens, we dont need more motivation for illegal immigrants to come.
ReplyDeleteI believe they should pass the act. It will help motivate those students who are undocumented and believe they don't have a chance to follow their dreams because they can achieve them. It will also help educate America and help us move forward in this growing world. People say there will be overcrowding but there is so much room in America! I think the more, the merrier.
ReplyDeleteI think that immigrants could become legal citizens if they came into the US as an early age. Once they got older(in high school)they should have to take a test in order to go into the military or into collage. So i think the Dream Act could work if immigrants were able to pass the test. This can also help our economy in many ways by increasing our educations.
ReplyDeleteThis bill would help America by having a greater educated work force and the military because there would be a greater number of troops, thus more protection for America. It would be a nice way to help the immigrants who have been living here for several years as they return the favor through their actions.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a good idea!
ReplyDeleteIt's a benefit for the US. More Population and it's good for the country. They can get better education and more jobs could be created and stuff like that. The Immigrants can get a better life here too.

The Dream Act seems like a win-win situation. We get educated immigrants or more military force and immigrants get easier access to citizenship. However, it is like an amnesty bill. It's rewarding people who are already here illegally with citizenship. There is nothing wrong with immigration but we shouldn't grant everyone who joins the military for two years with citizenship.
ReplyDeleteKevin Krivda, Bauer P1
ReplyDeleteI believe that serving in any military branch is the most patriotic thing any citizen can do (Keep up the good work cousin). I belive that immigrants should go through some process to become citizens and we should have a bill about immigrants because we do have to protect our country and halt any overcrowding. If you are willing to die for America, than u can be an American
I think this is great for the U.S. armed forces that illegal immigrants are required to serve for the country. This is like a "you help us, we'll help you". The only problem is that what if the immigrant is like a spy.

I think the bill is a good idea. We are building the amount of educated peoples in our country (which we desperately need). And as well as the illegal immigrants being educated they will most likely go the millitary route. So we are also increasing our country's military defense.

I believe that everyone should get a equal part in the U.S. because the founding fathers of this nation said that everyone should be equal including immigrants because they are here for the American Dream, and improve their lives and education and thats what the U.S. needs, educated people that can work and have careers like anyone else that is a citizen and it would also help out the U.S. Thats why I think immigrants with the will to study and become prepared should have the chance and right to be a citizen. Thats why i approve the passing of the Dream Act.
This bill would be good in that it would help out people who are coming to the US to work hard, whether it's working hard in school or in the military. It's a win win for both people who want to live in the land of opportunity and for the US as we would gain an educated workforce and military recruits.

I believe that this bill will make our population higher and enough though they will be well educated, they are taking jobs that American people could possibly have. Someone who was here illegally for many years is taking the jobs of people who actually came to the country properly or where already born citizens here. I do not think it’s fair that illegal immigrants get rewarded with jobs for doing something illegal when a legal citizen is without a working position.
ReplyDeleteI think that this bill is a good idea because immigrants that are living here now can finally become a citizen and they can help the U.S at the same time. this will also give them a chance to become loyal to their country.

Although I am able to see that this is indeed a form of amnesty bill, I do agree with it. I am "for" the military part of it though more than I am for the college. I do not predict that their could be any harm in adding to our military but I do see harm in choice number two. If these illegal aliens were to go to college and become educated just as us legal citizens do, even though I have to admit that our society is always better off with more educated people, ultimately these has-been aliens could end up taking jobs from us. I think though, that if this does happen to be the case in the end, it shouldn't be that drastic a situation as not that many will participate in this act. Many aliens probably aren't going to choose to go this route, whether it be because they don't have the money or they just can't get into a college (since they haven't lived here since their kindergarten years as we have to acquire the same level of knowledge). All in all, this bill will probably end up being more advantageous than harmful and so therefore has my support.

This bill is a good thing because it will help America advance with the knowledge of citizens. It will also grant citizenship to those who came illegally and who have been living and faithfully studying in the U.S. It also helps the army gain new troops that will be knowledgeable think up tactics that will lead our country to victory. This shows also the loyalty and commitment to become a legal citizen of illegal immigrants that wish to be apart of this country.

If you ask me id say keep them in their place and us in ours, and stop immigration as a whole.

And show the person's loyalty becuase they have two options that are dificult to committ to if they aren't serious about becoming an American citizen.

I dont think that they should let them became a citizen if they come over here before they are 15.

I think this act will be great for the country and immigrants. It will provide a more quick way for immigrants to become citizens, the only problem is that there are only two options- military or college. If they can commit to either of those two then they are set. One thing that I saw come up throughout the blog was the fear that the immigrants will end up being spies. There is always going to be a cost for making a choice, but I think the benefit outweighs the cost so the bill should be pass.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutley, this is a bill that would help immagrants posses the American dream a little easier. I mean, America is built off of immagrants, and who are we to say whether or not somebody should come to our country, and recieve an education? I like that the Bill requires at least 2 years of college, or military service. I think it's fair, and many immagrants are willing to do anything to have the opprotunity of living here. And the comment by Drake L. about the possibility of attack? Well, I mean, an American citizen could do the same thing right?
ReplyDeleteIts fair, why not? Let the kid try and better himself by getting an education.
I believe that the Dream Act would help the U.S. with our military, but I don not agree whith the fact that they don't have to take the citizen test. It doesn't seem fair, but I do like half of it.
ReplyDeleteI believe illegal immigration is wrong. Personally becoming a US citizen should be a process in which immigrants have to endure. It is unfair to the people in our own country who put forth the work and effort to have it taken away in a flash. This Bill is stupid from my perspective. Honestly, how are we suppose to pay for people in other Nations we can barely pay for ourselves? Seriously if we can pay for education and Military necessities through our government for foreigners hey here's an idea... WHY DONT WE JUST GIVE ALL NATURAL BORN CITIZENS COLLEGE FUNDS? Seriously, there are students out there that drown themselves in student loans, put themselves in DEBT just so they can live a life and get a job that hasn't been outsourced! We live in this country therefore we should get benefits rather than illegal immigrants! This is ridiculous, there are always going to be volunteers and there are ALWAYS going to be people that need to join the Military to better themselves because they have nothing. SO WHY! WHY... bring in Illegal immigrants to TAKE this spot? When they should just get their green cards, the right way, STOP SNEAKING INTO OUR COUNTRY, learn how to speak our language and live as an actual member of the United States of America that functions in the workforce as an equal!
ReplyDeleteI think the Dream Act has some good points but I don't think it is a good idea. It seems like the act was created primarily to boost military recruitment but illegal aliens have always had the option of gaining citizenship through the military. Additionally, I don't think it is a good idea to dilute our military forces with foreign speaking citizens with questionable loyalties.
ReplyDeleteI think the dream act would be a great opportunity for those who came to the united states. This is not the first time the dream act is around so it should not be a threat. I think its time for those people that are illigal to have an opportunity to get their residency.

I believe that this is a good bill to pass. Not only can our military forces increase, but passing this bill can help our nation as a whole by letting these immigrants have a chance in succeeding and getting an education here in the United States.
ReplyDeleteI think this act is both reasonable and selfish. I guess it would show how dedicated the person is to be a citizen and will help the military. Selfish though because it seems like it's all about the military. I personally don't agree with this act, there are alternatives in becoming a citizen,and i think we should stick with them.

soooo I think that this is unnecessary. The military needs to be like family and whether we like it or not this will split them up Even more. I mean, I guess if they want to serve they can, but we shouldn't really be making incentives... This country was Built on immigration and its better that they're put in the military than our jails. (stereotype... i know..)I just don't like the idea. Basically what Haley said.
ReplyDeleteThe Dream Act seems like a very good idea, the outcome would be productive for the military and for our country. This would help and encourage our immigrants to continue their education onto college and be more educated which pays off for the U.S since there's an issue with people whom lack eductaion etc. Also, our military would have more people which is also good...

ReplyDeleteI believe that it is a good idea to make immigrants either go into the military or college in order to become a citizen because it does show their dedication to wanting to become a citizen. However, I also believe that it may take away from those of us who want to get into a university but can't because there is no space.

I believe this bill could be a positive and negative idea for the U.S. Illegal immigrants are going to come to the country either way. It could benefit us to make a bill that will encourage illegals to support our country or get an education. At least that way they are trying to do some good in our country. It could have potential for our country to grow in a positive way. Although, it could hurt our country at the same time. Other countries could take advantage of us. They could send kids over here to get in our system then train them to turn against us or use them to plan attacks on our country. Illegal immigrants will always be an issue for our country and no matter how we try to fix it the problem will never go away.

The DREAM bill would be an excellent idea because it would not only increase our standing army and it would also add to the number educated people in the country.

i think that this would be a good idea. it would help the US military as well as help educate more poeple in our country. and if they have lived in the US for a good part of thier lives. There is not reason why they would not want to help it out by joining the military or getting an education.
ReplyDeleteI agree the bill is great because it will allow illegal imigrants to become citizens. It will also help them achive the american dream. The bill could also help the military by having more volunteers.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't disagree more with this proposed bill. First off, just because illegal immigrants are in the military doesn't mean they want to be there; maybe they just chose to join so they didn't have to return to their country. And just because they're in college doesn't mean they are learnind. Forcing them either into the military or college won't help this country at all. If illegal immigrants really want to be a citizen of this country, they'll go through the necessary requirements to do so.

This bill is an effective way to help solve an immigration problem. Illegal immigration is never right, no matter how dire the situation is, illegal still means illegal. However, it is more than understandable that people wish to seek a better life. Having an alternative to simple punishment or ignorance is going to help immigrants. Giving back to America for getting citizenship is an effective way to gain loyalty. Now they have the chance to prove that they will be a benefit to our country (which is more than we can say for many citizens born in the u.s.).

I believe the dream act is something that should be passed. I think that the requirments to it are great as well because what better way is there to show commitiment by risking your life for the country you love. it would also bring about a reason for more immagrants to take there education seriously making a bigger population of younger educated people.
ReplyDeleteThe Dream Act seems to benefit both illegal immigrants and the U.S. It could increase the military's power and/ or illegal immigrants' education level. It is a good thing that the U.S is trying to help illegal immigrants that probably came to the U.S with their relatives or when they were too young to know what was happening. This way illegal immigrants can become citizens while being productive at the same time. However they should create an ROTC type program where the illegal immigrant completes 2 years of military service and then goes to college for two years, but extend the residency to 8 years. This way they don't just get free tuition, while most legal citizens can't even afford one year of college without loans.
ReplyDeletei believe that it is acceptable for an illegal immigrant to serve in the army or a college to earn citizenship in the US. Illegal immigration is still unexeptable but serving for citizenship is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI really don't think this bill is a good idea i mean it's not exactly fair for the government to put illegal immigrants into the army to become citizens but i do think it is fair to gain citizenship in exchange for years in college because sometimes illegal immigrants are more serious about their education than other people their age that were born in the U.S.
ReplyDeleteI think that this bill is a dumb idea. Why are we always offering different ways to help illegals? Why don't we help ourselves first? How can you help other people if your not even solid? Like we have so many people in this country that are in need and that are living on the streets and dying and whatnot. Plus, whose idea was it to give illegals the right to join the military so they can be a resident? Pretty dumb idea there. Just asking for another brutal attack on the country. It is what it is though, the government will probably pass this retarded bill.

I believe that the dream act is great because it will allow our country to be one of oppurtunity and give the example that a citizen doesn't have to be born, to show that a citizen can be created. That through education one can succeed and become a worthy person to be a citizen. Also this would only help the country by having all these people that are interested in having an education and many cases the careers that are been done are those that lack to be done by society today. The soldiers I believe would help but they must have certain love and pride for the cuntry of they are willing to risk their lives. But in a sense this bill isn't an amnesty though, yet there is things that make it seem like it. It seems though that the act is a good one but I find t hard that it will get ratified.
ReplyDeleteThis bill would be fantastic for America. I think there should be a better option for citizenship and this "Dream Act" seems like the way it will be put into action.
ReplyDeleteThe military has Americans signing up everyday, there is no shortage of recruitment's. If the Dream Act is passed, the military needs to make sure the immigrants joining the military are worthy of such an honor the same way they do the rest of us born here in America.
ReplyDeleteI somewhat disagree and agree on this proposed bill.one thing is that just because people are being forced into the military it doesn't mean that they want to be there and they are just doing it to leave their country. If you are passing a bill to start recruiting people from all over countries just to "increase defense" seems pretty sad to me. Although, I do agree that people with a passion to succeed and want a education should get that opportunity. I also agree that everyone should have a way of getting citizenship no matter where you come from because in reality,we are all born equal just on different sides of imaginary lines.

I think the Dream Act is a great idea. It will benefit the military grow in numbers. It would also allow those who want to get a higher education to go to college; there are concerns that immigrants who have a higher education will take away jobs from the people that were born here, but if Americans do not want to lose those jobs to immigrants then they should also try to further their education. I know that getting a higher education is expensive but it will also be expensive for immigrants, so they have no advantage. If we allow educated immigrants to become citizens then they will be paying taxes and their higher education will probably mean that they will be paying more than the many other Americans who will be earning minimum wage. There are also concerns that immigrants in the military can act as spies for foreign nations; however i think that foreign nations in need of information would probably rely on spies whose background would not arise suspicion. Furthermore, military leaks have happened already and the people who leak information are natural born citizens.

ReplyDeleteI think this a very acceptable and reasonable bill. We promote individuals to be productive parts of society by requiring high school education plus college or military. Or both if they participate in the military for four years and then take advantage of the college opportunities presented there. Hell, going past the high school level in education or military is more than some born legal Americans.

If they go to college there is a good chance they will have a good job and they will be able to provide for society in some way. So overall the bill is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI don't really think this bill is too bad. It would promote patriotism and education, which are always good things. Immigrants can find a way to contribute more to the country while still helping themselves out. This is especially great for immigrant children who most likely had no choice in coming illegally or not to this country.

800000 is not that big of a percentage of the total working population in America, so these immigrants wouldn't have a huge affect on the economy.

Ryan thinks that the bill would make it easyer for imagrants to get better jobs then picking fruit and help them be a full funcitioning citizen.

ReplyDeleteI believe this form of amnesty is harmless. It requires the illegal alien to go to college or join the military, which would benefit the country in some way. Since the illegal immingrants are going to be here anyways, I don't see the problem with letting some of then go to college or join the military to gain citizenship. Otherwise, they would have no motivation to help the country and instead continue to contribute nothing to society. The dream act seems like an effective process to me.

ReplyDeleteMany illegal immigrant students have lived in th eunited states for most of thier life. They have adapted to the customes and values of America. If they move on to college or serve in the military for two years with the customs of an American, why should they not live in America. They also have to have "good moral conduct" which will insure they are worthy of living here. If illegal immigrants became residents they would be taxed which would eliminate a major aspect of immigration.

If they end up going through with the Dream Act, they would actually deserve to be a citizen because they helped our country.
