• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Give Us Your Sick provides a holistic perspective on how the American healthcare system is constructed in a way which restricts the innovation and entrepreneurship of immigrants. Through exploring the available healthcare options and the current political climate surrounding immigration and international entrepreneur rules in the United States, a landscape of current policies is provided. The United States of America is a nation built upon the backs of immigrants. This book gives a modern take on how American public policy governs and restricts their abilities to achieve financial independence as small business owners. A unique perspective is offered through interviews conducted with immigrant small business owners where they candidly express their struggles and triumphs. The book aids in expanding the discussion about American healthcare legislation and understanding how it continues to impact the immigrant population.
