Chinese Birth Tourists Crowd Orange County Mall
16th December 2015
Birth tourism — illegally spending just enough time in America so your child can exploit America’s naive birthright citizenship rule — demonstrates the cash scarcity value of American citizenship that America’s leadership seems intent on giving away to random foreign grifters.
On the other hand, at least these people have money and are willing to spend it in the U.S. I have no reason to think that they’re doing it just so their kids can come to America some day and shut American workers out of low-paying jobs, while a random subset of them goes on to commit mass murder in a suburban school or mall. So we’ve got that going for us.
