Dream Act

[Dracula Girl]

What do you think of the Dream Act? Would passing it help or hurt the economy? I can see some value to this if the immigrants came when they were very young and we have invested in them already (though certainly adults should know better than to disrespect and break our laws).

It's kind of like the same issue as the tax issue. It definitely will accelerate the declining economy more than it will be any sort of relief to the declining economy, but in the bigger scope, it's like deciding whether playing with matches or not playing with matches is good or not good for a forest while you're in the middle of a raging forest fire. Won't make much difference either way.
