Whether American's view of immigrant workers is positive or negative greatly depends on the educational level of the immigrant and what country they are migrating from. In general, the immigrants who draw the greatest ire are those who are unskilled, illegals from Latin American countries.

What is Spain's attitude toward reformation?

Spain has historically held a negative attitude towards the Protestant Reformation. During the 16th century, Spain was under strict Catholic rule and actively sought to suppress Protestant ideas. The Spanish Inquisition was established to combat heresy, leading to the persecution and expulsion of Protestants from the country. Today, though Spain is more religiously diverse, Catholicism remains the dominant religion and the attitude toward the Reformation continues to be one of skepticism and resistance.

Does the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire have great significance to this day because it highlights the inhumane working conditions to which industrial workers can be subjected?

The Triangle Factory fire enraged the public. New York's legislature was pressured to pass laws to keep workers safe. Other states followed New York's lead and issued regulations that managers needed to follow. Many of these laws, like "doors must be unlocked during business hours," are still in effect today. If it weren't for the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire, workers in the US wouldn't be as safe as they are.
