Some of the sentiments in the original post resonate with me. Mostly, though, he comes off as an unrefined asshat. And F him on his health care issues....save your dough, build some wealth and stop crying for the government to bail you out.
Yeah, but he is pumping money into a system that is failing us with the illigal alien issue. Our border policy is a joke, and millions of American taxdollars are being overextended on services for people that aren't even citizens of this country.
I am an elementary teacher, and I work in a school that is about 85% white. Not your typical Texas elementary school by any means. I can tell you that we had about 6 students last year that were illegals with doctored birth certificates getting a free education in our little 400 student elementary school. Imagine what the numbers are like in the inner-city districts. Teachers and administrators stand powerless to act on what we know is going on. Sure, we feel for the kids, but you have to draw the line somewhere.
Then there is the whole other issue of safety and terrorism. People are walking into our country on a regular basis that are not coming here for a better quality of life. If you don't think it's happening, think again.
