I’ve lived illegally in the US for 25 years

So basically, you took the resources to teach an US child, you took his job, while at the same time, not working in Mexico, you didn't help developing Mexico, you didn't pay taxes there, and therefore you forced your poor countrymen to produce drugs to earn a living instead of providing you with the various services you consume in the USA. Good job destroying the economies of TWO countries!

    To be honest, my only relationship to Mexico is being born there. I highly doubt that my birth was a catalyst of economic destruction. I’m sure Mexico is doing fine without me. In the US however and in the past couple of years alone, I’ve pumped back hundreds of thousands of dollars back into the US economy.

    That’s me alone, imagine what the number is combined with the other million that have DACA? I think it actually is a good thing.
