IBD poll on rewarding illegals with in-state tuition Oct 11.

It has scrolled (being old news like Perry), and most links were on blogs, which most discount, but I found one copy elsewhere:

The in-state tuition issue is a problem for Perry, no doubt. When the economy got rough, people started wondering WTF?

What is more disturbing about the whole illegal education issue (broader than just the college tuition stuff) is that court case that forces states to enroll illegal alien children in public schools.

My property taxes are always going up to pay for this.

I don’t like giving anything to illegals, but I accept Perry’s answer on the issue after considering these additional facts:

- The in-state tuition is primarily helping community colleges

- The in-state tuition is a net revenue gain for all colleges in Texas. A 2007 study says $3 million; a more recent study says $10 million.

But facts don’t matter here. Most of the posters on this thread are CainBots.
