The US President's new proposal to tax international students has been approved by the White House for release this week.
It's an unprecedented $100,000 tax on int'l grads who stay to work after graduation on Optional Practical Training (most grads do), a crucial bridge to remaining by any channel.

This is the con of privatization in general: claim something's about choice, then jack up the price on "optional choices" ad infinitum, while describing the lack of an essential good as a "choice" to "forego it" to "defray costs"
"In Iowa, the cost of private school education has seen tuition rates grow by as much as 50% since the voucher program took effect."

Private school tuition in Iowa has grown by as much as 50% since the voucher program began
Despite subsidies from Iowa taxpayers, the cost of private school education in Iowa continues to rise above the rate of inflation.

As long as politicians & the media frame migration as a problem or threat, they will create the conditions for racist violence to appear as necessary/legitimate/understandable - as long as migration is framed as a problem or threat, policing racist violence treats only the symptom & not its causes
‘This is not our first summer of racially motivated unrest, but the level of fear this time is unprecedented. Videos circulating on social media appear to show masked individuals stopping cars to identify people from immigrant backgrounds.’

Beliefs in conspiracies cannot be shaken by anything. Denials are interpreted as confirmations. "Full disclosure" only raises suspicions that something is being hidden. This is inherent in the logic of conspiracies.
