Semester6 Essay Prompt#34- Many people immigrate to the United States because they believe that it is better than their native county. In fact, many people believe that the United States is the best in the world. Do you agree? Why or Why not?

When the founding fathers of the United States set the building blocks of a new nation they didn’t know how many people would get attracted to the idea of the new nation and move to the U.S. The U.S from the beginning was by far a union that any other country had seen. Its goal was to have a nation that allowed people to worship how they wish and that every man was created equally. And should have a government ruled by the people and for the people with no royal family over it. With some of these ideas throughout the years the United States has become the promise land for many people looking for a way to give their family a better life and to make vast wealth for their family.
      With the economy becoming very unstable more and more people are thinking that the U.S is still the land of opportunity. But for those people who have grown up in the United States it’s another world. From the inside the U.S has one of the highest poverty rates for being one of the powerful countries in the world. And from the outside many believe that the U.S is somewhere they can start a family or better themselves with a free education. But the nation people dream about from around the world is very different close up over the years the United Sates has changed dramatically it is not the same nation as it use to be.
          I believe the U.S has become very corrupt in its political system by the huge corporate companies. The United States is no longer a country governed by the people and for the people, it is now the country governed by the big business and for the big business. In name the U.S is still a powerful country.  But when it comes to money we are slowly slipping into second position in the ratings each and everyday we are slowly becoming owned by the People’s Republic of China. The other thing that has lessen the U.S world has lost it’s repetition for being a country that lets ideals grow, and a nation for the little person and became a nation that is now for different companies. Because many big business have spent millions of dollars bribing different senators and house of reparative in passing laws that would help better their company and allow them to do what ever they want to do.
      Overall I think in the begging of the United States history it was a good thing the country was different from others that were already out their. The young nation showed good prospect it was known as the land of opportunity. But now the country is no longer how it uses to be because many people in power have become very greedy and no longer think about the people and only think about them. The U.S is not the best in the world for the simply fact that some people are living to big in the country and does not know how to share it with the lower class people.
