ELLIS ISLAND
Generations ago immigrants came to this great land for the opportunity to live in a free land and to work hard. They wanted a better life for themselves and their children. Immigrants were proud to be accepted,legally,as an American. It was something to be proud of. They were proud to learn English and be a contributor to their community. We are now in a time where people come to America for the social programs our government provides. Too many find it easier to come illegally than legally. Becoming a "legal" American isn't that important as long as they receive the benefits America has to offer. They would prefer to be a beneficiary instead of a contributor.
