Best response I ever heard to this argument about subsidizing dreamers was: "What about MY kids - they're dreamers too!"
They dream of going to college..they don't need to compete for seats in public colleges which will give preference to guaranteed tuition paid vs. hard-working families' abilities to scrape and save to get their kids better opportunities..

I’m sure the colleges in Central America and elsewhere will be happy to enroll those students.

Well then, his dad was fleeing communism. Apparently, uber capitalist Bezos can’t buy a clue.

It’s obvious that American kids do not matter to Bezos. Nice to know.

Foreign students are now actually being recruited by some American public taxpayer- supported colleges. Not to fill empty seats, either, Instead theyre filling seats to the exclusion of American students. Also, some much- needed courses are cancelled to free budget for more and more ESL and special counseling services for the foreigners We saw one English department with 39 ESL classes and no Shakespeare class at all

Should be illegal to give scholarship money to someone who is in the country illegally.
