The "dream act", I mean. Having listened to the debate on both sides, and the way things seem to be heading in this country, its a sad fact that very few people give a crap about the kids who would benefit from it. If you were a baby or a little kid when your parents brought you here, whether legally or otherwise, you're pretty much screwed for the foreseeable future. Even if you were a baby and had no idea that you weren't born here, even if you're a straight arrow, top of the class in high school, on a solid career path in college, you're fucked. The land of opportunity isn't interested anymore.
