I really wanted Clinton to win, I know she has some corruption going on but I'm illegally in the USA and I don't think I'm a rapist, thief, etc.. I just attend school and play videogames.. LOL
Anyways, I hope he makes America "Great" Again, even though I think its an amazing country already.
I would agree that many people in the USA Illegaly are just normal people.
But I am an asshole, and I do not care.
If you want to live in America, you can do so legally. There are ways to become a US Citizen.
Imagine you paid to get into college, and then I just show up (without paying or getting a scholarship) and just sit in the desk next to you.
You might ask "Hey where is your student ID?" and I would say "Shhhh, I am just here to learn, I am not doing anything bad."
Illegal College Student
Imagine you are at a Restaurant Buffet, and you paid to get in, and you pick out your food and sit down.
You see someone else sneak into the restaurant, grab a tray, get food, and also sit down without paying.
Illegal Restaurant Customer
Now imagine you live outside the US, you go through all the paperwork, wait in line, take the tests, and sware in as a US Citizen.
Then your next door neighbor moves in, and is like "Shhh, I snuck in here, I shouldn't be here, but I didn't feel like following the rules."
Illegal Immigrant (I don't care if you are Canadian, Mexican, or German illegal is illegal)
The USA is a place, where we pay heavy taxes to a Government that protects our rights and gives us social benefits.
Some of our families have been paying these Taxes for Centuries.
It is not only unfair, but immoral to allow people to illegally enter the US, and skip ahead in front of Immigrants trying to get here legally.
And it is also a bad idea to let people who haven't been paying taxes to participate in our schooling systems.
I would be 100% fine with open borders if there was no welfare or public services.
For example, if you had to pay to go to school (rather than school being paid for by Taxes) then I don't care who goes to school as long as you pay.
If you had to pay for healthcare (rather than getting free healthcare) then I do not care who goes to the doctor.
BUT THE SECOND IT IS ME WHO IS PAYING FOR YOUR SCHOOLING AND YOUR DOCTOR VISITS, that is when I have a problem.
I don't know you, I don't care about you, I don't give a fuck about you, but I am forced by my government to pay taxes for social programs that are meant for my fellow Citizens.
Not only that, but personally I don't care about anyone other than my immediate friend's and family.
This might sound heartless, but it is the reality. And if it was on a smaller scale, most people would agree.
If you were cooking food in your kitchen that you paid for, and random neighbors just entered your house and took some of your food, you'd be like "Who the fuck do you think you are?"
But when you pay Taxes for social services and citizens of other countries come and steal from the country as a whole, people say "Let them stay, they are just trying to survive, be happy, and live the American Dream.
