Wed, 03 Apr 2019 22:16:07 -0400 https://nowcomment.com/documents/136190?scroll_to=1314442 https://nowcomment.com/documents/136190?scroll_to=1314442 This is a good summary sentence for my topic. I am going to expand on this for 2/3 of the essay and then talk about potential ways to help for the last third.

I've never really thought about where the word "meme" comes from, but know I know. That was not at all what I expected.

Globally speaking, we have to act fast.

Without them there will be serious problems.

This is describing only one of the "massive die-offs". This is beginning to become a large problem because coral reefs support entire ecosystems.

Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/121956?scroll_to=1189485 https://nowcomment.com/documents/121956?scroll_to=1189485 The United States has a huge number of requests for personal information compared to other countries. This supports the claim that the government is limiting our privacy because they are getting access to our private information.

It provides factual claims that educate the reader on the possible negative affects that immigration can have. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149395 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149395 This is important because it discusses possible outcomes to solutions proposed to immigration. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149394 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149394 The article backs up its claims with professional surveys. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149393 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149393 This just points out negative aspects about immigration. Something that the other articles did not go in depth on. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149391 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1149391 This was mentioned in the previous articles, but this article takes a more negative approach to the effect. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1148584 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1148584 This article has a stronger opinion than the previous articles. This one focuses mainly on the negative effects of immigration, and how it is harming the country. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129737 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129737 These are important to know because they help familiarize you with aspects of immigration. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129736 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129736 Voters do have a very big influence which is a good thing. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129735 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129735 The federal government does have the ability to regulate immigration laws, this is especially important due to the current state of our political system. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129734 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129734 This is something that I never thought about but it is extremely important. Having that many people politically involved could change some of the results in elections. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129732 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129732 On the flip side, here is one of the arguments against immigration. Most people just talk about the effect it will have on the US, but I think there is a very large social justice aspect as well. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129730 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129730 This is an important positive aspect about immigration. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129729 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129729 This ties into the second sentence I commented on. I think it is important to stress how complicated this issue is. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129728 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129728 This sentence caught my eye because immigration is a very complicated issue in the US. It is not as easily dealt with as a majority of other issues. The rest of this paragraph does a really good job of explaining multiple aspects of the situation. Mon, 17 Dec 2018 16:35:59 -0500 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129727 https://nowcomment.com/documents/116110?scroll_to=1129727 I think this is very interesting and important because if these are at an all time low, then I don't think the federal government and especially the president should be as concerned about immigration as they are.
