[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok troll. [/quote] 100% sincere, not a troll. I live in Montgomery myself (Chevy Chase View, specifically) and I know that many of my immediate neighbors and most people in the county support immigrants and hate what TX and FL is doing to them. So we need to lobby those officials in TX and FL to send them here, where they receive the help they need. [/quote] Most people in the County supporting immigrants does not mean that we want to pay yet higher taxes for even more social services for immigrants. Look, certain schools in MoCo are now largely focused on bringing up the bottom (typically the immigrants from Central America, many who are illiterate in their native tongues). I moved to MoCo for the schools, yet ended up having to pay for private, at extreme cost, to simply insure that my kids got some teacher attention. [/quote] Speak for yourself. I would happily pay higher taxes for programs that brought more migrants here as took care of them. And I support raising your taxes too, because I and those who care about these people shouldn’t have to do it alone. You can afford to chip in some more, too. With just what you’re spending on a private each year ((to keep your precious little darlings away from brown children)) you could help dozens of people from other countries who came here with nothing. That’s how much your taxes should be raised - by whatever you’re paying in tuition each year. You can clearly afford it. [/quote] I would prefer that money to go into a fund for reparations rather than people who have no ties here and often break laws along the way. Not to mention we don't have any background info on these people or medical histories. [/quote] We can do both. It just requires electing people who aren’t afraid to raise taxes to a level where it’s possible to do real good for people. The money is there. What’s lacking is the courage to tell people they need to pay their fair share. [/quote] Have you ever taken an economics course? Seriously.[/quote] Most human beings are not self-destructive and care more about their own children’s education over some random kid that isn’t theirs. You are not living in reality. There is nothing wrong with parents ensuring their kids get a high-quality education. [/quote]
