A few decades is more than enough time to evolve a system to game – or cheat – the rules. With the so-called “undocumented”, it’s as simple as getting into the country by whatever means at hand and a network of fraudsters will greet you with jobs, crooked documents, sanctuary, and the open arms of sympathizers. Maybe even before long, the right to vote. For today’s haute couture mavens, it’s greasing the skids for their kids. Well, they got caught. A slew of blue-America’s finest were indicted in Boston federal district court on charges of bribery to advance their kids to the front of the line into America’s allegedly “elite” schools, ahead of any of the more meretricious hoi polloi. Hypocrites, hypocrites, hypocrites.

All the gnashing of teeth for the marginalized and oppressed is a mere pose that they mistake for virtue. They do this as they steamroll a tiger mom’s child or a young family’s struggles with two jobs to save enough for their kids’ education. It’s disgusting!
I understand the pull to cheat. They want the prestige of an elite school’s piece of paper (degree), not necessarily wisdom, for their kid. Chances are, the kid won’t get much enlightenment anyway. The curriculums are too corrupted with ideologized nonsense. It’s particularly true of the big-time schools with big-time sports and big-time endowments.
So, what are they cheating about? It must be all about how to get the piece of paper. No wonder we have kids flocking to socialism in spite of its history as a hot mess. Go figure.
