BOSTON (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - Gov. Deval Patrick says he'll use his second term to try to implement the rest of an advisory panel's recent recommendations on immigration reform, including in-state tuition for illegal immigrant students and more English classes.
Two words, Fuck No.
So one day after I read that California is apparently blindly pushing a similar measure (despite the fact that as a State they are bankrupt), Deval decides Massachusetts can't be one-upped in the buffoonery department. Hey Deval, how about you start serving the people that elected you. And here is a hint, they're not the illegal immigrants that you continue to pander to, those people can't even vote. Shit most of them don't pay taxes so its not like they're even lining your pockets, you must be the dumbest elected politician in our states history.
Seriously, the fact that we're constantly being bombarded with stories of government shortfalls in the budget, public layoffs (schools, fire and police etc...), schools cutting sports programs, and underfunded State Universities doesn't mean anything to you?
If you want to help the illegals then how about cutting the tape and wait time to becoming a citizen and get these illegals paying the same taxes the rest of us do. Making them wait 5 or 10 years whatever the ludicrous wait time is right now, only to have to answer a few questions like "who are the Presidents of Mount Rushmore" or "What are the first 10 ammendments of the Constitution referred to as" is asinine. If this is all the knowledge it takes to qualify as a citizen then we should just be enrolling all new immigrants into a 6th grade social studies and history class. Pass the final you're a citizen. Boom, The Alt Tab just solved the whole illegal immigration problem, what else ya got?
