Though the Indian government does not give any special status to immigrants to the U.S. from India, there has been a spurt of immigrants from India to the Silicon Valley -- California. These immigrants are mostly selected for special skills and there are other immigrants who fill positions in services like nursing and doctors. The immigrants from India are mostly centered at Silicon Valley, the hub of computing and inventions. This is because immigrants from India come from some of the biggest and best electronics and engineering schools from India notably the IIT. These professional immigrants are often brought in by businesses themselves and are not a strain on the U.S. economy nor do they take over the jobs of the locals because they are employed in jobs that are highly specialized. The immigrants from India for example come equipped with a technical education and are mostly professionals who contribute to the growth of business and the U.S. economy in various ways.

Immigrant Living Conditions There are more foreign-born residents in the United States than ever before and while many worry about how the country will absorb all these newcomers, others remember the previous waves of immigrants, who despite often harsh living conditions, successfully assimilated (Miller Pp). Immigrants came to America with aspirations that their lives would change dramatically for the better, believing that they would be entitled to steady work and pay, abundance of
This made the legal attempt to gain reparation for those who were imprisoned and lost so much very difficult. The acceptance of a plan for reparation was not achieved until 1988, and the completion of a memorial in honor of those Japanese-Americans who served in the armed forced and those who were interned in the camps during World War II was not completed until late in the year 2000.

Let's examine these questions from four different
