I told our local school board president that I would vote against any future increases in money for our local schools if any illegals were accepted.
She accused me of wanting to punish “our” kids because of a political issue. I pointed out that if our school is in such dire financial straits, those wishing to dump illegals on us were the ones doing harm.
To make matters worse, I did it publicly with loud agreement from nearly all within earshot.
Again, we have a taxing authority (schools) that ‘earn’ income from the feds for each student that is there. Again, it increases their resume to have the number of students increase under their time of power. And, when I asked how many illegals we had in our school district, I was told that was not available! Athletes got hurt and sued the school district since they had no health insurance!! Taxpayers are robbed at every level we are paying and even with charitable organizations who are supporting the law breakers to have grant money along with those who give to it.
I recently worked a resale charity and those who don’t speak English have ROLLS of money. They make cash for their services so they get govt. food and housing and gas, etc. So, we are imploding upon ourselves when we allow ourselves and contractors to use illegal labor. They have learned to fill out the papers where they have so many dependents that no taxes are taken from their checks and sooner or later, usually years later, when IRS comes up with a non-match, they are gone to another gig in another city/state. All the while we say we want better for our children!! And, most kids lately cannot take a step without checking to see if someone has contacted them on their iphones or googling what to do. We are ripe for invasion and not only from S.America but the Middle East.
