So they are competing with Legal citizens and legal immigrants for grants, scholarships and loans...that really doesn’t make me feel much better. Again, having 3 kids in college or completed college with no loans for 5+ degrees and counting..., it reeeeally bugs me to see ILLEGAL students getting any preferences....
I know this sounds really snarky, but too bad Mexico could not offer a tuition program for their college aged students citizens to return for in-state tuition and loans, etc...The unemployment rate for young adults is at an all time high (highest since WWII) we simply don’t have the resources to be doing this IMHO. I say we because I am concerned that this is gaining in popularity and will become National if we elect the wrong President.
It is not snarky. But seriously, with all the violence, murder, and mayhem--if you lived in Mexico, wouldn't you be hightailing it out of there?
I went there 30 years ago to a very nice hotel in Acapulco. There were heavily armed federales on the beach back then. Now the drug gangs are decapitating people and leaving them in the streets.
Mayors are being murdered, police stations overtaken. This week they even canceled a football game in TX due to security concerns.
The real immigration solution is to make the Mexicans want to stay in their own country. Our federal government should be dealing with the drug runners, gun dealers, and those profiting from transporting illegals in the country. IMHO.
