Children can’t game the system when it comes to DACA

In his Sept. 14 letter, Adolph Kropatsheck claims that we should wake up and and see that the “Dreamers” are simply people who gamed the system and are therefore receiving benefits to which they are not entitled. Does anyone really see babies and small children as folks who gamed the system? This position does not hold water, morally.

Mr. Kropatsheck would have us believe that a 25-year-old who has been in this country since the age of 1, and knows no other country than this one, should be deported to a country he has never seen because as a toddler he gamed the system. Unbelievable.
