The foreign student program is so fucking rife with exploitation it's ridiculous. It could be cleaned up overnight if we had some real regulation and oversight of the thousands of "business colleges" that exploit them... but then we'd be killing a cash cow, I guess.
They can't admit they have forest fire smoke blowing north, after all the Republicans demanded we stop letting ours blow south.

Anyone who is voting for these fascists isn't reading anything and doesn't give a fuck about a platform. They want to see PP gel up his hair, be cruel to minorities on their behalf, and make us over in Trump's image.
