Most First and Second Class passengers who got off the ships at Ellis Island were allowed through without inspection because of a society issue. These passengers were deemed fit for citizenship just because they could afford to pay the higher fees for crossing the Atlantic Ocean.

However, both the and that were much better than those. Let's not even talk about the treatment of asian immigrants during those.
So that the immigrants would do those less skilled but essential jobs that the Britons did not find appealing.
Ellis Island was where immigrants were given medical and mental exams. Those that failed were sent back to Europe.

Why is it easier for today´s immigrants to keep in touch with friends and family than it was for those who came in the 1800s
