I feel that your frustration is misguided. I'm pretty sure I've heard Obama talk of retaining immigrants who graduate from STEM fields at US universities. Here's an article from 2012 about this: http://www.trianglecoalition.org/legislation-would-help-reta...

Of course, the lack of action befalls the legislative branch (Congress)

> Meanwhile Obama goes around making speeches about how kids of illegal immigrants somehow have the 'right' to citizenship and would be able to benefit from US public services (which by the way I and other legal immigrants are paying for).

Without being political, these illegal immigrants have most likely also paid for these services via sales/state/federal taxes, many for a lot longer than you have. As for citizenship, I think the citizenship argument is usually applied to those who were relocated by their parents at a very young age. If you were deported, you would still be able to communicate in your homeland, while many of those who were brought as children wouldn't be able to communicate if they were forcefully sent back
