Mexican illegal immigrants who give birth to anchor babies in the U.S. are being joined by upper-class Chinese women who have the resources to enter the country legally to deliver their offspring and essentially purchase American citizenship. A story on this new breed of anchor babies was published this week by the leftwing National Public Radio, which makes it a point to intimate the differences between the poverty-stricken illegal border crossers and the affluent Asians.
A loophole in American law allows the rich to travel to the United States—often in first-class airline seats—to give birth, the report says, alluding to the plight of the poor chastised Mexicans who desperately cross the treacherous desert to give their unborn children a better life.

Because the Chinese women have money, the U.S. practically welcomes them to give birth here. In fact, it has become a booming trade in China where a host of businesses have profited from the deals. For about $15,000, a company arranges a California hospital, physician, house and car rental for wealthy Chinese parents-to-be. The operations are referred to as “an affordable American dream.”
One Chinese woman who is about to deliver a boy in Los Angeles says she’s giving birth in the U.S. to give her child a better future, education and work possibilities. The woman will enter the country with a foreign visitor’s visa arranged by a broker, who says he’s trying to help Chinese mothers realize their American dream comes at a “fair and reasonable price.”... access to a free public school education and the reduced college costs that come with being an American citizen are worth the investment for Chinese parents.
... the number of children born to illegal immigrants in the U.S. jumped to 4 million from 2.7 million in a six-year period and will likely keep growing.
As true as it is, putting it on your car around here would also make your car turn brown - the color of the ash heap it will be after it's trashed, smashed, and torched.
I believe it is time for a new amendment to the Constitution. America's birthright citizenship is only if the birth on our soil is to a woman LEGALLY on our soil. Period.
Ping!
That should be sent around the country, until everyone reads it.
I agree.
I heard the story on public radio. They pay lawyers 15,000$ to set up the hospital, rental cars, hotel and just come and give birth.
I want to apologize for listening to public radio. I get sick of listening to Hannity mail it in.
About a week before they are about to have to votes to do it, the Chinese contingent will politely decline and vote us to be annexed to China.
We are Rome. Decadent, Fat, Dumb and Lazy.
Thank you. You have the permission of the author to circulate it as you will.
There is a lot more of that site of similar quality.
i hate abortion, but this sort of bs on allowing these foreign scum to give birth to babies here and automatically get us citizenship is not really related to that.
this is all about a generous nation being taken advantage of, over an over again, by the commie filth, commie filth our large corporations love for their cheap labor.
Children born here of parents on a visiting visa are not Americans. Period. Nor are children born here of parents who are in the country illegally citizens. No way José.
This got started when people coming here intended to become citizens and stay. That is no longer the case. This is a pernicious tradition that can be stopped overnight. Hospitals and clinics ar not supposed to confer citizenship.
If it continues, we could wind upo with a President from Kenya, or some other place best appreciated in the pages of 1930s National Geographic magazines.
Which is exactly why the interpretation of the 14 Amendment is insane.
The fourteenth amendment has been twisted and turned so much, I would think there would be water coming out of it.
The “intent” which is so important when trying to decide who a write in candidate voted for is dismissed when discussing the fourteenth amendment.
Citizenship is supposed to be granted to the children of immigrants born here, if the parents were here legally with the intent to become citizens. In addition, it was primarily concerned with the children of slaves being citizens.
So, someone coming here as a tourist, and dropping their baby should not be considered a citizen. No more than my child would be a citizen of France should my wife have delivered in Paris.
It has to do with the jurisdiction over the person having the baby. NOT just their geographic location.
I keep hearing this, but all things are cyclical. I suspect this would change over time. Most of my kids friends, who put off having kids (they are now in their early 30s) are suddenly having kids. Lots of kids.
I’ve read that many wealthy Chinese women come to the US to have their babies so they can get around the one child policy. Many return to China with the child and the authorities aren’t able to legally kill the child because it’s considered a US citizen.
The Chinese kill second children after they are already born?
While those of us who were born here,or those who became citizens through legal means,are screwed.I wish I had free health care,free meds,free housing,free education,etc.
Your points are excellent! But, at least with the affluent Asians, we are getting a positive contribution to the US gene pool, unlike with some of the other illegal immigrants.
End “birthright citizenship” now. If a legal immigrant couple comes here before gaining citizenship and has children, the children can be naturalized along with the parents. NO BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP for non-citizens. Are we insane?
When sufficient Rats, RINOs, and elitists are removed from office and replaced with citizens who want what the people want and are willing to do what it takes to get it.
If you want to know why a lot of this has happened, read up on Peter Schey.
