I also had a change in opinion due to one of my students. I am an AVID coordinator helping students go to college, but how can I help this student who was brought here as a child and must suffer through his parents mistakes because he cant qualify for financial aid. I dont think it's fair that some illegal immigrants, that deserve to be in here have to be categorize with the overall perspective of illegal immigrants. I know that we are against giving 12+ million people citizenship, including myself but shouldnt we let people like one of my students an opputunity. After all, they would just help increase the economy for the U.S> He told me about the "Dream Act" and how it can help him and others in his position. I am against legalizing 12+ million people. But I am for the Dream Act. :D
What do you think?.... I know that there are many conservative people, but we would never be able to beat illegal immigrants without making some sacrifices. :?:
Thousands of American children suffer when they parents commit a crime and goes to jail or prison. But that parent made the choice.
There are some very good colleges in Mexico and the are begging for students to apply for aid. Many American students are going to school in Mexico.
We also have many students who cannot go to college because they cannot find jobs to fit into their schedule and have to take a year and work full time. My grandson. The Millenium Scholership has been exhausted because it was given to illegal alien student. Fair?
The illegal workforce is 6 million, less than 5%, the could all go away and it would not affect the economy. What is the other 6 million doing? They can be replaced by legal immigrants. We have plenty of unskilled Americans. Illegals do not affect the economy.
Enforce the laws we already have and illegal immigration will be disappear.
Secure the border.
[b]Enforce workplace laws.
Repeal automatic birthright citizenship.
and sit back and watch them all leave. If it was the will of government, illegal immigration would not be a problem. Nothing else would have to be done and it would not cost taxpayers nothing. We would have our country back. You know, there was a time when there was not 20 million illegals in the country.
