That's not where it started. The original meaning of dreamers, regardless of how it's used today, referred to children brought here by their illegal entry parents who have grown into adults here. That's whom I refer to.Don’t move the goal posts man. “Dreamers” (catchy name to designed to push the political narrative of granting blanket citizenship) are unrelated to the group about which this conversation began.
When your very first act of coming to this country is breaking our laws and trying to evade border patrol, that’s not the best start the becoming a functioning member of our society. By definition, it is the opposite.
Agree it's not the best start. But for many/most, it's the lesser evil. Doesn't make you a permanently bad actor.
