I mean, yeah, obviously. There’s no other country in the world — except Somalia, maybe — where I could just show up with no documentation and no authorization to be there and get a bank account and send my kids to public schools. None. The US is the only one where that is possible.

And it shouldn’t be. No matter my other disagreements with the right, if the left wants to retain any form of welfare state, it should keep the above in mind.
