In an excerpt from the article explaining Perry’s views on education of illegal immigrants…
“Romney: It’s an argument I just can’t follow. I’ve got to be honest with you. I don’t see how it is that a state like Texas — to go to the University of Texas, if you’re an illegal alien, you get an in-state tuition discount. You know how much that is? That’s $22,000 a year. …
Perry: But if you say that we should not educate children who have come into our state for no other reason than they’ve been brought there by no fault of their own, I don’t think you have a heart. We need to be educating these children, because they will become a drag on our society.”
In my point of view I feel that Perry’s point of view is very caring especially to me because I have family who are seeking higher education here but it’s a political world and most politicians don’t see his point of view and some will not support it. The author explains how in this editorial Perry is against the idea of building a fence on the Texas-Mexican border. Perry says that “boots on the ground” will solve our states problem with immigration. In a way I would agree with that resolution but haven’t we been having this problem for over couple of decades even with soldiers guarding our borders? Take a look at this editorial and let me know what you think. It’s a really good explanation on one of the main topics in this upcoming election.
