The Dream Act children compete with my children and grandchildren for success in school and work.
I am innocent of wrongdoing. The Dream Act kids parent (s)
are guilty of wrongdoing.
Why would my children be punished for doing nothing wrong by the Dream Act children who continue to do wrong by staying here and not regularizing their status?
DREAM ACT KIDS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR ALL THE BENEFITS, SCHOLARSHIPS AND REWARDS OF THEIR HOME COUNTRY.
Again, why should my children be punished by Dream Act kids who have alternatives.
I do have some sympathy for people in his situation. When you are a child you do what your parents tell you to do, legal or not. You grow up as an American, and deportation to some country you never knew would be absolutely terrifying.
Dream act also brings back the anchor baby law that was abolished in 1996.
If there is a way to have them stay is to give them an EARNED “J” visa as a student where the MUST RETURN back to the starting country where the parents are deported. Also they must be ineligible for student loans, grants, scholarships, and can not take the seats of LEGAL residents.
Illegal immigration is an ignored problem until a recession and depression hits the US. For years I had buddies who sort of not care because they can always get a job or quit and get a better job during the boom years. Some did not even see the harm of it because they were not affected by it. Others relish the low cost gardener, landscaper, nanny, etc etc etc. Some even fell for the MSM/liberal/Chamber of Commerce line, you don’t like illegals because they are not white! Now they are singing another tune when their job opportunities are on the line. When the US gets out of this recession/depression, our society will be a changed one.
I feel for the kids too. But one needs to step back and look at the big picture. Grant these kids amnesty and every illegal immigrant parent will come to America with their young children in tow knowing that eventually their kids will get amnesty. For the children is noble, but it can blind you from making the right decision.

In other words he is “some tech guy” who is taking the work of a legal resident or invetment immigrant.
If he is making that much money he can LEGALLY obtain an investor’s visa.
this CNN story is so full of lies that Obama could have personally written it.
Give him prison time, fine the hell out of him and then deport him!
Don’t let the Rio Grande hit ya in the ass on the way out.
Ether get legal or take those great entrepreneur skills to Met-E-Co with you.
In asking do you not think When you are a child you do what your parents tell you to do, legal or not. There is a reason why they are the parents and they are the kids. My Dads job required him to move, ever so often, I can use the same logic I had to do what my parents told me until age 18. I can also say, how unfair it is, my parents are not rich and I stuck living with middle class parents, I had to do what they said. If their parents using criminals acts, such as the parents pay the Mexican drug cartels smuggling of their kids to sneak across the border undetected.Is this not it’s self not a crime of child endangerment ? The kids had no say, but their parents did had a say and they decided to disregard the laws and bring their kids here anyway and they knew in advance what their kids would encounter later in life. Shouldn’t it be a crime to hire drug cartels to smuggle kids across the border ? It’s an handy excuse to say I had no say, I also had no say until 18. This is like saying any kids from any part of the world who can make it here,they will need to only say, I had no choice and they are free to stay forever.Whatever problems these kids have were created by their parents. It is their responsibility to fix their kids problems. We did not create the problems, the parents did.And their parents always get a free pass and are never held accountable for the position they put their kids in today. It’s up to the family to solve their personal family problems. We fulfiled our obligations by giving 12 years of free schools, untold millions of free school lunches, etc,etc,etc.Don’t you think it is very odd, how untold millions of children here illegally, always maintain, never knew I was illegal until I wanted a drivers license or college grant ? Their parents teach them how act and what to say, if any encounter with law enforcement arises, to suddenly indicate, oh i just found out after 18 years, i was here illegally ? Do you think it’s fair now thes ekids all grown up are using fake or stolen documents or will the kids, we had no choice and all shall be forgiven due the I had no choice ?
Cry me a river,Pedro.Get the hell out of *my* country.And,in return,I promise to *never* set foot in yours.It’s the least I can do!
All of these “Dreamers” are really very fortunate Mexicans (or Guatamalans or whatever), rather than the very unfortunate Americans they take themselves to be.
They should have great advantages in returning to their home countries, and working or setting up a business from there, that their compatriots who weren’t smuggled into the US don’t have.
Actually, you grow up as an illegal alien in the United States because illegal aliens aren't American citizens. And these illegal aliens have family members (siblings, parents, grandparents, cousins, uncles, aunts) back in their home country so it shouldn't be that terrifying for the illegal alien to have to go back there.
