Why should they benefit from their parent's law breaking? It would also be rewarding their parents for bringing them here illegally. They need to go back home with their parents and apply to come back legally while waiting their turn in line. The process doesn't begin on our soil and it isn't fair to immigrants that came here the right way. We don't need these people competing for jobs and resources against Americans either.
Well maybe they are more qualified. Besides, I thought we had low unemployment now. For many dreamers this is the only country they've even know and they consider themselves Americans. Why blame them for what their parents did.

Spite. And maybe jealousy at someone else working to better their lot. But likely, mostly spite fueled by self-doubt and disappointment.

With exception of some papers, they grew up American.

Now that I said that:
People that rob banks for a living and support their families often have family that doesn't know where the money came from. Doesn't make it right.
