The DACA Myth

Donald Trump has ended the Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals program and it's caused an uproar in the media and among the Left. It's a program that rewards illegal immigrants and as such it was illegal, as Obama himself admitted in 2010 -


"When I talk to immigration advocates they wish I could just bypass Congress and change the law myself. But that's not how a democracy works."

 He then went out and did just that.   And people are praising him for enabling law-breaking.   Blanket entitlement drives such advocacy.  The claims of economic advantage by allowing illegal immigration have never been particularly credible, with very heavy welfare dependency as shown by Harvard University and also heavy involvement in felony crimes. There is nothing wrong with legal immigration - it's the illegal kind that is a societal problem, and Trump is right about it.

Here is another area where Democrats get it wrong.
