And just to clarify a point, my bf is only a LEGAL citizen when he is working, which means he has to reapply for a work visa and social security number to work every year. He gets to pay taxes and for social security that he will never get to see and also gets no benefits from the government, which is not limited to but includes, welfare, health insurance, social security, voting rights, college funding of any kind (even though he graduated with honors in the top ten of his high school in America and a year early.) cannot leave the country since he cannot apply for a passport to get back in.
