There are several reasons why people decide to immigrate to the United States. One of the main reasons that people from other countries come to the United States is to work and provide a better life for their families. Another reason one may come to the US is for educational purposes or to escape severe and dangerous political situations and war. Each immigrant has a distinct reason as to why they entered into the United States, but the majority come to work. There are several ways that immigrants arrive in the United States. Many of them cross the US borders illegally on foot or by car. Some immigrants make it without getting caught, others are caught several times before they succeed in their illegal crossing. On the other hand, there are also immigrants who come into the United States legally. They enter legal by obtaining the proper documentation from their government or by marrying a United States Citizen. Most immigrants who enter the United States legally,come by way of aeroplanes.

People immigrate because of economical issues. Consider the fact that where they live they have no way to move up to a better social class. Ex: A poor person would be unable to move to the middle social class. Statistically people are not likely to move upward to a better social class. It's stable. If you are born poor you have a lower opportunity to have an education and a lack of all the other resources that people that are born in a wealthy family already have. People immigrate to go upwards in their social class maybe not to a High one, but a better one. &how do immigrants come here?...they risk their entire life,money,family,home to pursue a better life. Which some don't succeed. They cross borders walking, swimming, etc. I believe the Amnesty should be past, but it can be improved. Immigrants can help our economy

Most people immigrate to the United States in search of a better life for themselves and for their family. The United States is a country where the opportunities are endless. There are tons of educational, occupational, and personal development opportunities. One is also able to make much more money working in the United States than in other countries. Even minimum wage jobs pay higher than most other countries in the world. Another reason that they come to the United States is to get better health care and retirement options. No other country in the world has a government that takes care of its citizens like the United States government. If one becomes unemployed, the US government helps the citizens look for a job and gives them money (unemployment). So,this is why many people around the world decide to migrate to the United States. It is the country of gold roads.

Well one thing I know why I emmigate to the USA was because my mom was here and I had a long time I did not see her and also to be a succesfull person. Also to help the rest of my family back in my country. Becase back in my country we have the american money the $. But for a person to make $45 he has to work on fild seven day on a weeek. But  the prices there are tha same as here. My opinion is that we risck our self for a better life.

Why do we sometimes move from one state to another? The answer is simple. Money. As a rule, we all move from one place to another only because the new place pays more money, which means that the standard of living there will be better. Moving from la to nyc showed me what a good life is without worries.
