Don't expect the loans to be repaid. They'll just change their identity, move, and never give it a second thought.
why is our stupid government even pushing the DREAM act? do they have any idea how inexpensive it is to get an education in mexico?
if the DREAMer kids knew how deluxe and inexpensive Mexico’s higher education system is, many might chose a full-tilt raza education with 24/7 Spanish and Mexican culture. (See my 2009 blog, Mexico’s National University Wins Prestigious Award.) For example, at the National Polytechnic Institute, 60 percent of students pay only $12 per semester.
Now we learn from Mexico that it is cranking out lots of engineering grads to build the country’s infrastructure and economy.
When Mexico’s Presidente Calderon visits Washington demanding handouts and open borders from Uncle Sucker, he pretends to be the poor neighbor with lots of needs. In fact, Mexico is a middle-class country and Americans should recognize that fact and expect more responsibility. (limittogrowth)

MEXICO CITY — In an aggressive bid to move beyond low-wage factory jobs and toward an entrepreneurial economy, Mexico is producing graduates in engineering and technology at rates that challenge its international rivals, including its No. 1 trade partner, the United States.
President Felipe Calderon last month boasted that Mexico graduates 130,000 engineers and technicians a year from universities and specialized high schools, more than Canada, Germany or even Brazil, which has nearly twice the population of Mexico. (end)
we are such suckers-look at student loan debt in america-GUARANTEED by us:
What is more disturbing is the rising delinquenciy rate seen in the student debt market that has now breached the $1 trillion barrier-higher than ALL credit card debt.
watch what happens when the government gets involved:
Loans in repayment fall in the midst of a switch from the Federal Family Education Loan Program, in which the federal government lent money to banks and guaranty agencies to loan to students, to the Direct Loan program, in which the government lends to students directly. Some loans made by banks are now also serviced by the government, the result of the Education Department's purchasing those loans from the lenders at the height of the financial crisis in 2008.

Yes, the U.S. is being used to the max by Mexico. Watch, when this country implodes, the Mexicans currently living here illegally, who claim they "love" this country, will promptly return to a very prosperous Mexico, while laughing all the way to the bank at Uncle Sucker. It's sickening.
The irony is, the Mexican government will never allow our poor citizens to flee the U.S. "to seek a better life" in Mexico. No, that door will be closed. And, there will be no accusations of racism, xenophobia, or nativism. After all, a country must protect its borders, its sovereignty, and its citizens. Unlike the US, no one will blame them for doing what's best for their country.

ILLEGAL aliens don't help since they push down wages for many Americans. Sheesh!
No jobs that we outsource push down wages. Technology replaces workers. Then theres all this other stuff dealing with the government that i won't get into.
What jobs would be push down anyways? A fruit picker? a leaf blower? You work in those field?
I have never heard a college student say " I want to be a gardener, but these illegals man"

Construction and landscaping among other blue-collared jobs Americans have always done for a fair wage until the arrival of cheap, illegal labor that cost them their jobs or reduced their wages. As for fruit pickers only 3% of illegals are doing ag jobs and even for those there are unlimited H-2A visas for legal foreigners to do those jobs. Both outsourcing and illegal immigration is hurting job opportunities for Americans.

Uh; less than 5 percent of illegal aliens work in the fields. I'd like to see NO illegal aliens do anything in the US except go be home.
BTW: not all of us Americans are "college" types; some of us are in the trades.
