Immigration

From the 1920's to now, the US has grown in population from 76 million to over 400 million people. Most all of the population is linked with immigration. This country has so many cultural backgrounds because everyone from the US is from somewhere in the world and their ancestors at one point moved here to start a new life. The only true Americans are native Americans. Immigration is now becoming a big problem as it was during the industrial revolution. Immigrants are stealing Americans jobs for cheaper wages. That is why illegal Medians clean toilets and do the dirty and labor intensive work because they are willing to do those jobs for a decreased wage.
