Constable ignores bigger problem
After reading the title of Burt Constable's article "Who pays the price for crossing line to 'steal' education?" I thought, finally someone has the guts to broach this subject. Alas, Constable did not. He was speaking about American's kids crossing school district lines.
Talk about insignificant.
The bigger story and theft to citizens are the illegals that cross the line from Mexico to the USA. We are paying the price to educate illegals and kids of illegals, not just in billions of our tax dollars, but at the expense of the quality of American kids' education.
That is GRAND Theft! That is only part of the theft that goes on every day and contributes greatly to the sorry economic state of our country, Illinois and cities.
We have a difficult time finding funds for the poor, elderly, infirmed and needy, and have even cut these funds to Americans in Illinois, but continue to use our taxes for social programs, medical and education for noncitizens.
So come on Burt, let's talk about the real theft to citizens.
