What is America, especially where immigrants (legal or otherwise) are clueless about?
For starters, our actual economic system (before the progressives decided we need to become a western european utopia)
Calling Massachusetts anything other than highly educated is rather absurd. Even in the worst school districts, education is valued in MA, and on the whole I'd argue that it's a relatively successful state. Especially considering the extreme lack of natural resources available to its population.
I'm from MA. I assure you, it's overstated, and the numbers are fixed and trumped by an extremely corrupt public school system. Teachers editing standardized tests numbers in the hundreds per year to boost numbers. I'm sure the media doesn't bring that up. Sharks don't eat sharks. As for economically, businesses are leaving in droves north of the Border to NH and down to Texas due to our asinine tax policies. The only reason Bio/Med companies stick around is because they get to pluck the best and brightest out of our Ivy leagues and MIT.
Numbers and facts:
CBP budget = $11+ billion per year.
Couldn't agree with you more. It's ridiculous. Privatize it. Cost effectivity.
And there you have it.
