I had seen many families on H1-B come and go without shedding any tears of regrets. They have something to fall back and many never fully embrace American culture. The legal dreamer drama is a much recent development. The children of H1-B high tech workers raised in United States find it difficult to adjust. However, unlike us, they will not be barred 3 to 10 years if they choose to leave United States. These children come from well-off families; there father might be a software developer making 6 figures or their mother a doctor.

We are in a special case. We have nothing to fall back; many us come from broken families; our father or mother work at minimum wage jobs, and under the table. We don’t come from well off families. Therefore, I can argue that we ,as DACA and Dreamers, are more patriotic then “legal dreamers”.
