I’d imagine that a lot of these are 2nd generation illegals that are romanticizing their old country via the views they got from their parents. They have never experienced the poverty and corruption that their parents did, so it was, “So much better in the OLD COUNTRY.” .......................
Yep. I’ve witnessed it, first hand. That is until the couple went to visit their relatives in the town their parents came from. NO TV, NO RUNNING WATER,(had to get the water from the river, nearby), roads full of trash, NO ELECTRICITY, and NO PLACE TO BUY A HAMBURGER OR A coke.
