Any other reform decisions ought to remain local. If these folks choose to continue to live in poverty and poor conditions, that's on them. Perhaps that's a familiar existence which they enjoy? If they want more, there are plenty of unskilled labor jobs available, you know, those jobs Americans won't do?

Kevin, I really don't understand the point of this post in relation to your previous post. I don't think anyone insinuated 'forcing' aid on anyone, and I'm not sure we can make any assumption you've made here in discussing this topic.
Are you truly positing that all you need to survive anywhere in America is a high school education that meets the government's standards as set forth in NCLB?
