Additionally, a carbon tax should be established
nationally, to lower emissions, and encourage the usage of
renewable energy. A carbon tax would also allow for tax
reductions in other areas, and combined with employing
Americans to transition to widespread renewable energy, would
create economic growth, while simultaneously reducing our
carbon footprint. Another controversial issue which troubles our nation is
immigration. The United States is a country built on the
backs of immigrants, and to deny a path to citizenship to
millions who long only for a higher quality of life is
unpatriotic. We must stop dehumanizing these people and see
them only for who they are--people. Immigrants strengthen our
economy, whether it be as producers, consumers, or
developers. To deny them access to citizenship in our nation
would be depriving ourselves of economic growth and cultural
diversity. Economic and cultural change that would only
strengthen American society.
