i have no problem with someone coming here to gain a higher education
what i do have a problem with is the rampant missuse of our welfare systems by people who jump the line infront of legal immigrants.
if one wants to better himself by getting an education here, and then go make his/her country a better place to live, he/she has my 100% support, and i would openlt encourage it
if one wants to come to my country, and get an education, and then stay, and make a useful contrubition to my country, then i support that whole heartedly.
my opinions on this issue arise from nothing other than my life's expierences.
i have worked with "these" people shoulder to shoulder formany years. they feel they are entitled to my rights, even though they are here illegally,why should someone have the right to disapprove of us immigration policy, when they crossed the rio grande a couple of years ago in the dark?
many good people are wanting to come over here, and want to contribute to our society, and i amhappy to have them come, but i beleive the point of the discussion is illegal immigrants sneaking over the border illegally to work, not someone in your situation
i would be willing to bet that based on dayily interaction with "these" people i ammore qualified to discuss this matter than you will ever be, only coming here to study.
i think when you go work in a field,or in a manufacturing plant for about 15 years, you might be qualified to have this discussion
no offence meant there buddy...but this is what i and my family live EVERYDAY
edit....and as far as my "qualifications" to live in my country...go to your library, and look at a copy of the mayflower compact, you will find the name Gunning Bedford Jr
that is my family...we've been here a very long time...yeah we came over on a boat...the "first" one...
