It's an option. If you get papers you can work to pay your way through school! If you can't do that, and you think ur going to get a free ride then think again. I've worked all my way through college and paying 1/4 would make a great difference. Also, being able to work would help a lot too! If you can't even do this then I'd say you don't deserve to get papers! As for the military option, I hate the military but if I hadn't the brains nor the money to go to college that would be my only option. The dream act isn't a free ride it's only an option. Get that through your heads and stop trying to block us from getting papers.
