Best response I ever heard to this argument about subsidizing dreamers was: "What about MY kids - they're dreamers too!"

They dream of going to college..they don't need to compete for seats in public colleges which will give preference to guaranteed tuition paid vs. hard-working families' abilities to scrape and save to get their kids better opportunities..

So all scholarships go to childten of illegal immigrants who are themselves not citizens , but not to the children and grandchildren of the U.S. Citizens circa 1960 who made it possible for his father to flourish hereand and paid for it?

Bezos is an American hating ingrate.

Yeah. I hope my nephews benefit from Bezos’ generosity. They have dreams. Of course, they’re legally in America, so... guess no.

This goes to reinforce the Democrat mantra that tax cuts are spent by some for irrational purposes. Responsible businessmen reinvest in the business, liberals throw it dwon the.....rat hole.

But nothing for the children of Americans who are the ones that helped make his company.

And people wonder why I don't do business with Amazon any more.

That’s the equivalent of you or I pulling a 2 bit piece out of our pockets, tossing it to somebody and saying... Get yourself an education.

How about using that money to help turn their original countries into liveable places instead of dung heaps.
