Hard Face: Fair People

A US survey shows, perhaps surprisingly, that Americans are fairly evenly divided over the fate of illegal immigrants.

About one-third say illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay permanently; about one-third say they should be granted only temporary worker status; and 27 per cent say they should be returned to their native countries.

71 percent favoured allowing the children of illegal immigrants to attend school.

The hard intolerant face of right-wing USA seems not to emanate from the people.
