radioman Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 I wonder how many would choose not to head for the US if they took away the right to US citizenship based just on being born there? That has certainly always struck me as a rather odd 'benefit' in this day and age.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 It goes back to the early days of the nation, when the country was encouraging immigration. It is definitely bizzare these days, when one can slip into the country as an illegal and give birth to a child, then claim residency as the mother of a US citizen.

Dear Sir, in Germany any criminal arsehole from Northern Africa or Nigeria whose request for asylum has been rejected can bring the Federal republic to trial and because he claims to have no money although haveing been selling drugs for 2 years the lawyer and the whole process is beeing pad for by the government. Apart from the monthly subsidies which he receives anyway. This and your US based mothers are the result of goodwill to assist helpless people long ago. They are now abused and cause bad mood within people like Donald and myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 There's a good read here http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/05/following-the-money-in-trumpland-leads-ugly-places.html Some interesting comment on, Michael Avenatti’s disclosures, Trump’s decision to kill the Iran deal, and Rudy Giuliani’s media tour. Nothing shocking, some comparison to the Nixon era. Interesting if you have a mind that can be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent a couple months in California recently and, for 5 weeks, stayed in an apartment house in a Chinese populated section. It was amazing the number of pregnant ladies I saw. Can't say which, if any, were visiting, illegal, etc, but the percentage was way above normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Germans riled by Bundesbank call The German central bank's call for people to work until age 69 has reignited a fierce debate in Europe's fast-ageing top economy, with analysts backing it while politicians show their opposition ahead of key elections.... https://www.thelocal.de/20160821/work-until-69-bundesbanks-call-riles-germans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Political Suicide for anyone that does this. Same same NZ. We olden fellas feel, that we've paid tax all our lives, to fund superannuation payments, as have our parents and their parents and our children. If the politicians have squandered the moneys we entrusted to them, then they will cut our entitlement to superannuation at their peril. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
