That's just so screwed up.
Like, why should it be so hard for your neighbors with a house and a baby to become a US citizen in the first place? It's impractical. If they become citizens or something in between, they pay taxes, everything, all anti-immigration criticism (other than the racism) evaporates.
100%. In my opinion, if a state “must” exist, becoming a citizen should be a 15 minute process. Do you have fingerprints? Can you sign your name? Ok. Welcome, citizen.
I agree mostly, maybe a little more... I don't want any more violent criminals and I don't think lions from the safari should be brought into someplace like NY state.
That said I, as a natural born us citizen of several generations, believe we should welcome other potential citizens with few exceptions.
There are already fixes (read: laws) for those problems though.
