U.S.
Citizenship Questions
U. S. citizenship questions are those which elicit answers that kids
have to give in grade school here in the United States; are questions
that are on high school social studies and civics tests; are those
found on essay exams sometimes in college U. S. History classes; and
are those which you never have to ask once you have been born and
raised in the states, in America. But when you are fighting
to enter and then stay in the country, you have to jump through a
number of hoops—those held out by the U.S. Immigration and
Naturalization Service/Dept.
U.S. citizenship questions help a country that says it is bulging at
the seams to filter out those who do not deserve to be here or who do
not meet the requirements of immigration. I say this not as a
bigot or elitist who agrees that we should shut down all borders, but
as one who pays attention to the news and understands how this country
is more than ever terrified of invaders who are here to hurt the
country and its people.
It will make sense to you that U.S. citizenship questions are designed,
then, to encourage patriotism from the start. For what about those who
abuse the rights and privileges (different things, rights and
privileges) that Americans work hard for? For example, what
about the ones who steal a dead man’s identity (his
driver’s license number, his social security number, etc.)
and use it to live and work in the U.S.? What about the woman
who is pregnant, who slides across the border between California and
Mexico, gets hospitalization and baby-birthing procedures, then slips
back into Mexico…leaving the state/country with a $10,000
medical bill? And, of course, there is the infamous
megalomaniac who took air pilot courses in Florida, rented a home in
Florida, and lived in Florida for a couple of years…then
terrorized the country by crashing our planes into select targets.
So, you get the idea. And you most likely are here online
because you are an international student, a legitimate immigrant, or a
person who married your mate in this country and are working on your
legal citizenship. In that case, you are likely here online
looking for the actual U. S. citizenship questions. If so,
then you are in the right place, for many links to the lists of sample
questions are available. Live the U.S.
life, work, go to school, and buy property here, and you will not be
able to avoid “learning” the answers. For
example, what are the colors of the U.S. flag? You see them
everywhere. What do we celebrate on the Fourth of
July? Ask someone the next time you are watching the
fireworks why we have fireworks to begin with. And good
luck—if you are meant to be here, you deserve to do well on
the citizenship test!
