Son had college friend from India...he said they all say they come here to go back to help their country...and they know they are lying when they say that..it just gets them into the country for schooling. then they stay.

And that is true, often but not always. I know several farms who hire South African (white) college age kids who own large farms to work harvest/planting here. Some learn to fly and work for the spray service. They get paid well, use the money to expand their farms there so they are less reliant on other countries, are polite, law abiding and go home at the end of the summer. I worked at a bar last summer and they were some of my most polite customers.
Also my father and my stepfather were both LEGAL immigrants, learned and spoke English, became citizens and proud Americans.
That being said, I grew up in SoCal and left because I got sick of all the illegal aliens who overrun our schools, bankrupt our state, fill our jails, commit crimes, fly the mexican flag, expect me to learn Spanish and all the rest.
INDEED.
