Is immigration out of control? Should the U.S. limit the number of Immigrants? Why or Why not?

     Immigration is out control and United States should limit the number of immigrants becuause the influx of immigrant from different countries create chaos to the government and its citizentry.  First time immigrants  face a lot of problems and challenges that they need to overcome in the U.S.  These are some of the problems that the immigrant have to deal with while staying in the host country: Unemployment, seclusion to the society and language which hinders the immigrant to communicate to people inorder for them to be more self reiant and be progressive.   The government must have to set qoutas how many immigrants are allowed to enter the country in a particular period of time to minimized the insurmountable number of immigrants.  According to the author, Mortimer B. Zuckerman, "Over population is projected to  over 500 million by 2050 roughly double of what is America today".  Because of the so called "family reunification" or the creterion of immedaite relatives keeps going on and on......their is a possiblity that it adds up the population.

My Immigration experience

     I am from the Philippines, and came here in the United States as an immigrant not because my family lives here,but I married  an American guy.   I have been living here in the United States for 6 years.  My immigration experience is not that difficult because the processing of paperwork to come here  is not that hard at all.  Although, it takes awhile to wait for visa to come here in the U.S., but its worth waiting .  At first, it is kind of hard for me to really grasp the American way of living, but I still have to deal with it regardless.  It takes me a while to really put my mind that I am here in the U.S. living by myself with no family around to turn too for help, but I think positive all the time  that everything will be just fine.  Eventually, the transition of bracing the American life went smoothly.  As years passes by I was able to endure the challenge of being an immigrant, and here I am going to school at Mctc.
   I believe that America is the best  place to live in.  America is  the country wherein it gives a lot of opportunities to immigrants to be better off compare to their country of origin.
