The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

Besides, working under the table is a time honored tradition. I wouldn't have had my first three jobs if were working aboveboard.

I would be fine with the United States changing and joining most of the world works in not granting citizenship simply for being born on U.S. soil.

But that would probably take an amendment to the constitution to accomplish. And it wouldn't really change anything. "Anchor babies" may be a nice side benefit of illegal immigration but I don't think it is likely a driving force behind it.
