I'd have to be a lot closer to dead--or maybe my child would have to be in danger of starvation--for me to consider this.
Fun fact: Back in about 2008 or so, when DHS wasn't widely known to be evil (I mean, some of us had strong suspicions), I was part of a multi-university coalition awarded a multimillion-dollar, multi-year grant to study border dynamics. My piece was a 3-year study of immigration, crime, social integration, and related variables.
A week after we were awarded the grant, it was rescinded. Someone in DC knew someone who leaned on the Homeland Security grants people and made them yank our grant and give it to a coalition headed by Texas A&M (who had not won the grant, initially). Even if I didn't know what I know now about DHS/ICE/CBP, that experience would make me avoid working with them.
