Testing the Hypothesis


Immigrants are motivated to migrate to the United States of America to improve living conditions, receive better wages and to create a future for their families.

The who: Immigrants
The what: migration to the United states
The why: improve living conditions, receive better wages and to create a future for their families.

Testing hypothesis: Any person in the world who wants to live in America has this need
The what: All migration to America has boundaries, many people come here legally and overstay their visas, many come here illegally and stay unknown. Many want better lifestyles, stay with families who are already here, want better education, want better wages, many other reasons
The why: Donald trump gets blamed, the government gets blamed, the illegal immigrants get blamed, the American citizens get blamed, anyone who is in and outside of the United states can get blamed based off of the perspective you are coming in with. Over 4 million Mexicans will blame Mexico for the migration. Many American citizens blame the security of America, and or blame the political parties for the migration.

Interview number 1
Who: Whitney about immigrants?
What: Immigrants are not the problem. The problem is that the citizens in America are a melting pot and every immigrant in the world would love to come to America and live here.
Why: government assistance. America is the number one country for some of these people and they hear how well off they could live just by being in here,

Interview number 2
Who: Edgar about immigrants?
What: Edgar had a mom that came to the united states illegally to seek for medical help. She came over in a boat to seek medical attention here in America for free and now lives in America without any papers.
Why: To get the help needed. In Mexico, she could not afford her procedure and here in America they cannot deny you even if you were a criminal and therefore she received the procedure for free because there was no one to bill with no address.  

Interview number 3
Who? Ghada about Immigrants?
What? Ghada moved from Lebanon to America to secure her kids future. Ghada expressed her feelings about peace and how America can provide you with that and that is the reason why she moved here, and she feels like it is the safest here in America.
Why? Lebanon was probably not as safe of course; they could not have health insurance and if so it was probably expensive. They went to war in 06 and currently the living conditions in Lebanon are terrifying and therefore her reason is for safety.

Interview number 4
Who? Alex on immigrants
What? Alex moved from Venezuela to America to get involved in the school system and be involved in politics in order to have a degree in foreign policies and he wants to represent the United States in relations with other developed nations.
Why? Alex feels like in America you can have the opportunity to do whatever you want in life and harder work rewards you in this country and he feels like Venezuela was not the case and he would not get any further than high school education over there.

Interview 5
Who? George on immigrants
What? George came to America to practice his religion in peace. George came to America to go to Hollywood and live the American dream. George stated that he can secure his beliefs in the system here without second doubting the abuse of power. By that he means the government is not a total chaos like in other countries and he wants to live how an American life.
Why? Americans are number one in the sense of freedom, being able to survive and put in hard work, there is jobs and benefits here. America has public schools, it has California and Florida, America is an English country with values behind it. Our laws make up our country and the whole world would love to come into America any way possible.

My conclusion on this hypothesis is that there are too many reasons to why the rest of the world wants to come to America and it is the simple fact that America provides major aspects of lifestyles that other countries can’t guarantee and in America, you are allowed to be whoever you desire. From security, to better lifestyle, to education, America is a valuable country with many resources and the way America portraits itself to the rest of the world is superior and maybe the curiosity of what America really is get to foreigners but living in America is undeniably a very safe environment and families from all over the world  would pay money if possible to guarantee it. In all honesty, I did not know that foreigners throughout the world know about the benefits that Americans offer to their citizens and if you come to America just to live a lazy life and not work to receive support from the government, then you should be kicked out of this country for not contributing to society.

  1. Both of my parents came to the United States to benefit from this incredible country. Hearing stories about people from different countries, I have realized what a blessing and privilege it is to live here in the United States. I'm curious as to what opportunity you see here that you might consider. I guess I will have to read your solution to find-out.
