Why complain about the tax money spent on educating illegal children (K-12)...?

Yes I would like them to take their free K-12 educations home with them. I feel very mushy and liberal about that. They can use it to improve their own countries instead of taking more from ours. But from here on out we need to be investing in our own children's futures. Cut off the jobs and freebies and the illegals will go home. And of course they will take their children with them if they have no reason to come back.

I concurr and I really wish they'd stop calling them an "invasive species" when all they want to do is live in a place which will provide them and their children a better life, where they can thrive without restriction, and bask in the cool glow of watery freedom! Why shouldn't they be allowed to live in Lalke Tahoe and Pyramid Lake? They do not use an benefits or other funding that other species require... they simply want to be left alone to live their lives! LEAVE THEM ALONE!

Seriously, if you don't get the metaphor than try this out: why don't they simply apply for citzenship? I suppose if their parents robbed a bank, they would be able to keep any money they found in the attic years later, too... they do not belong here, "illegal", look it up...

because counting "illegals" causes everyone else tax base to increase.

p.s. you probably arent old enough to understand how OUR own government politicians in many cities will steal someone house and property for not paying a simple 500 tax bill, while if a person manages to do so, some city politicians will increase taxes to 5000 $

then the politician will take the land and sell it to a corporation and not give the homesteader any money for reconcilliation

if you own a home, and you pay taxes every dollar the government spends They actually increase on property taxes.

Its a dream alright a dream we cannot afford. Someone has been having pipe dreams if they think that we can afford to pay for children who came here illegally they need to go home to be educated. The people of the usa cannot afford to educate them and it is a lesson among many we are going to have to learn.

After all of your other weak arguments are defeated, you resort back to "it's not their fault that they're here".

Typical nonsense. American citizenship is NOT a universal human right.

Because American tax dollars should be spent to educate the children of American TAXPAYERS..

"No one is being offered any benefits that Citizens do not already have."

And that's the problem. They're not citizens. So get out and get in line.

The illegal part is the fly in the ointment.

The argument is, that our country is severely in debt and we have to start cutting some where...

Republicans always whine about education money - they want people uneducated, stupid, scared, racist and voting republican.
