DACA Amnesty Will Hurt American Millennials Most
National Economics Editorial ^ | Feb 20, 2018 | Spencer P Morrison

Although millennials are the first to virtuously signal their support for granting amnesty to DACA recipients, they are also the demographic cohort most hurt by DACA.

This is an bizarre paradox—why would anyone favor a policy that harms them? Misinformation? Perhaps. Or maybe millennials think—feel, rather—that they have more to gain (socially) from supporting DACA than they do to lose (economically). This is probably closer to the truth. Some doubtlessly do, but as a group millennials will be the losers in any DACA amnesty deal.

DACA is the acronym for President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals executive order, which granted temporary legal status to any illegal immigrant to arrived in America before the age of 16. Roughly 800,000 people enrolled in the program, although the total number of potential DACA recipients is nearly 2 million. This is how many people would likely receive amnesty in an amnesty deal.

That and they are decreasing in support of DACA, so the media has to try to pump out articles like this in an attempt to shore up support.

They aren’t concerned because they don’t intend on having to support themselves.

They were ceaselessly indoctrinated. A millennial knows, doesn’t just think, but KNOWS:

White people are generally evil.
Capitalism is bad.
America was founded on wide open borders. Anything less is racism.
Racism is the absolute worst thing in the world, worse than murder.
Women are oppressed, and men are simply predators.

That, is what went wrong. I’m watching it all unfold with a morbid fascination.

Trump should let his temporary DACA/”Dreamers” extension expire without further extensions, fight the pending litigation in the SC tooth and nail, and—assuming the SC overturns the lower courts—start deporting these Nightmarers in record numbers. Then call up Turban Durbin to see if he is ready to negotiate border security.

The average man has been forgotten. President Trump listens to him. Here is the advice the President got from Groundskeeper Willie about DACA.
