All this talk about immigration and I started to wonder "why do people want to immigrate here?" I found three sites that provide different opinions about why people come here. In the first site http://usaimmigration.weebly.com/why-do-people-immigrate-to-the-us.html we see the push and pull factors of why people want to move to the United States. My family came here to this country to look for better paying jobs so it falls under the pull category. Since there is a large population of Latin Americans in the U.S. I searched for a reason why they are moving here and I found this site that might give us the reason http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/18/immigration-latin-america_n_5168356.html . I find it interesting that the United States has intervened in many Latin American countries, did we cause the immigration issue to get worse as a result? In this Canadian site I found more reasons why people immigrate http://www.immigration.net.in/2009/07/09/top-seven-reasons-why-people-immigrate/ . Even though it's a Canadian site, the reasons are the same for immigrants that want to come here to the United States. My family came here to the country for three of those reasons, for a financially secure future, higher standard of living, and to get an education.
