The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I do have a problem with a pregnant woman coming over and giving birth here with the aim of establishing birth citizenship and then slowly bringing everyone over.

As do I. There was a series in the LA Times (at least 10 or 15 yrs ago) about Chinese Birth tourism to the Southern California region; homes set up to house the expectant woman with full services until she popped and the newborn was fit to travel back to China with its brand new US passport.
Their system/plan was to send the kid back when it reaches majority and begin the chain migrant process for other family members.

My other gripe is population in general in areas that can't take any more pressure on the limited water supply. Still waiting to hear Felon47 has turned on the 'big beautiful faucet' for the southwest. Clearly Trump and the GrandOldPedos don't give a shit about west coast fish and wildlife.
