When did providing taxpayer funded services to illegal aliens become a Conservative policy?

Charging tuition is not a service. So what is the high crime here? I'll ask again. Should he have charged them out of state tuition fees? Shot them upon receiving their diplomas? Done the federal government's job and driven these families to the border? Arrested the employers that hired the parents? Relegated someone who qualified for higher education to a dead end career?

“Charging tuition is not a service.”

Charging in-state tuition is a service. If your tuition is being subsidized by the taxpayers it is just as much a service as taxpayer subsidized health care.

Charging in state tuition to illegal aliens is a service. It is a discount that American citizens cannot get...duh.

As for the rest, yes he should have arrested the offending employers, arrested the parents, and sent them packing back to their own country.

Higher education is not a right. It is not even a right of American citizens, not an entitlement, not provided for in the Constitution, and certainly not the right of law-breaking criminals.
